I
Thank
you,
Mr
Orlando.
Thank
you.
Members
of
council,
I
think
I've
been
before
you
guys
before
we
got
this
enacted
by
County
Council,
I
kind
of
briefed
you
on
an
initiative
I
had
at
the
legislature
that
would
give
the
county
the
authority
to
submit
to
the
voters
for
approval
a
a
sales
tax
commonly
referred
to
as
the
penny
sale
tax.
I
Although
you
can
use
you
know,
fractions
of
a
penny
for
the
purpose
of
acquiring
open
space
and
green
space
and
as
a
practical
matter,
the
way
that
it
would
work
and
the
way
that
County
Council
discussed
it
working
would
be
have
the
sales
tax
be
in
place
for
a
period
of
two
years
commencing.
You
know,
I,
think
three
or
four
months
after
the
referendum
itself,
I
think
it
would
be
in
April
or
May,
is
when
the
sales
tax
would
start.
I
It
would
then
run
for
a
period
of
two
years
or
until
the
sum
of
100
million
dollars
was
collected.
Whichever
earlier
occurs,
what
the
county
would
do
do
what
they
said.
They
would
do
and
I
think
it's
it's
reasonable
is.
If
that
was
approved
by
the
voters,
they
would
immediately
go
into
the
bond
market
and
they
would
issue
a
hundred
million
dollars
worth
of
bonds,
so
they'd
get
100
million
dollars
in
their
possession
right
away
and
then
that
100
million
dollars
would
then
be
amortized
over
a
period
of
two
years.
I
As
the
sales
tax
was
collected,
the
purposes
for
which
the
that
100
million
dollars
could
be
employed
would
be
to
acquire
fee
simple
title
to
open
space,
Green,
Space
conservation,
land
conservation,
easement
development
rights.
The
reason
development
Rights
was
added
in
the
statute
as
an
investment
option
is
because
a
lot
of
areas,
particularly
in
southern
Beaver,
County
and
even
more
particularly
in
Bluffton,
about
90
percent
of
the
town
of
Bluffton,
is
already
covered
by
development
agreements
and
planning
and
development
agreements.
So
the
rights
are
vested.
I
I
They
will
be
restricted,
however,
by
a
citizen's
advisory
committee
that
will
oversee
the
procurement
that
they
recommend.
There
is
also
a
requirement
in
the
statute
that
the
dollars
be
expended
in
an
equitable
way
throughout
the
county
and
and
then
I'll
wrap
up.
My
comments
by
saying
this.
The
reason
why
I
authored
this
legislation
in
the
general
assembly
and
then
advocated
for
its
passage
by
Beaufort
County
Council,
to
submit
to
the
voters
this
November
is
because
I
think
we
are
at
an
existential
Tipping
Point
in
Beaufort
County.
I
Our
Rivers,
our
marshes,
I
I,
saw
what
happened
in
in
Maryland,
where
I
grew
up
with
the
Chesapeake
Bay
and
what
development
did
to
the
Chesapeake
Bay
and
they're
spending
hundreds
of
billions
of
dollars
now
trying
to
capture
once
they
once
had
what
they
once
had
and
they'll.
Never
quite
get
it
back.
We
still
have
a
window
of
opportunity
here
to
do
something
in
in
Beaufort
County
to
prevent
that
from
happening
and
I.
Think
most
people
came
here.
I
certainly
came
here
and
I.
Think
most
people
came
here
if
they
were
come.
I
Here's
because
of
the
natural
beauty
of
this
place,
because
it
is
special
and
especially
the
people
that
are
from
here
they're
from
here
they
want
to
preserve
and
keep
the
thing
that
that
makes
this
place
special
as
well.
So
this
is
the
only
county
in
the
state
that
is
doing
this.
It's
a
brand
new
law
it
was
signed
by
a
governor
McMaster
in
May,
Beaufort
County
is
in
one
sense
a
pilot
program
will
be
demonstrating
trading
to
the
rest
of
the
of
the
state.
How
you
can
take
your
destiny
into
your
hands.
I
Some
have
said
to
me
and
I've
been
out
there
on
the
hustings
kind
of
making
the
case
for
this.
Some
have
argued
that
this
is
not
a
good
time
to
be
imposing
a
sales
tax,
given
the
economic
conditions
that
were
under
and
I
get
that
what
I
would
say,
though,
in
mitigation
to
that
would
be.
The
sales
tax
would
not
apply
to
the
most
regressive
taxes.
It
would
not
apply
to
groceries.
It
would
not
apply
to
gasoline
it
would
not
apply
to
Medicine.
I
Beaufort
County
voters
have,
in
the
past,
through
other
referendums,
supported
more
modest
programs
like
the
rural
and
critical
lands
program,
I
think
in
one
instance,
it
was
a
75
million
dollar
Bond.
Another
was
50
million,
voluntarily
imposing
property
taxes
on
themselves
to
amortize
that
debt.
Those
referendums
passed
with
72
73
74
percent
of
the
votes,
so
so
most
people
in
Beaufort
County
understand
this
and
get
this
I
recognize
that
as
an
uphill
battle,
it
always
is
when
you're
talking
about
an
additional
tax,
particularly
in
this
economic
climate
but
I,
do
think.
There's
a
good
case.
I
We
made
and
there's
a
lot
of
people
that
will
be
making
that
case
I'd
be
happy
to
answer
any
questions
you
have
about
it.
It's
it's
fairly
straightforward.
The
dollars
would
be
expended
not
just
in
the
county,
but
also
within
municipalities.
Just
simply
because
of
the
county
initiated
process
doesn't
mean
that
the
dollars
are
only
expended
in
the
county.
It
also
has
to
be
in
municipalities
and
actually
in
the
language
of
the
statute
equitably
distributed
throughout
the
county.
J
I
In
the
first
and
second,
one
I'll
answer
the
same
way:
it's
it's!
It's
a
willing.
Buyer
willing,
seller
context.
Okay,
so
this
isn't
a
100
million
dollar
work
chest
for
the
county,
then
to
use
for
eminent
domain
purposes.
Okay,
so
you're
going
to
have
to
go
into
the
market
you're
going
to
have
to
talk
to
landowners,
you
have
to
talk
to
developers
you're
going
to
have
to
negotiate
prices
and
you're
going
to
have
to
arrive
upon
a
price
that
a
buyer
and
the
seller
agree
upon.
So
it's
going
to
vary,
I!
I
Guess,
given
the
context
you
know
there
are
going
to
be
some
strategies,
I
think
where
purchasing
tracks
of
land
to
prevent
any
development
would
make
sense
if
you're
in
Watershed
areas
or
if
you're
in
an
area
that
clearly
is
going
to
have
ancillary
effects.
Downstream,
you
might
want
to
approach
this
conservation,
easements
or
fee
simple
title.
There
may
be
other
areas:
I
use
Bluffton
as
an
example
or
you've
got
existing
development
agreements
that
have
certain
densities
allowed.
I
The
statute
requires
Beaufort
County
Council,
to
publish
in
the
newspaper
the
process
whereby
they'll
go
about
making
these
assessments
I
mean
what
advisory
groups
are
they
going
to
listen
to?
Are
they
going
to
use
the
intellectual
apparatus,
that's
in
place
of
the
world
critical
lands?
Are
they
going
to
listen
to
the
coastal
conservation
League?
Are
they
going
to
look
at
green
prints
or
green
footprints
that
have
been
developed
by
Department
of
Natural
Resources
that
identify
the
vulnerable
areas?
I
County
Council
I
think
gave
first
reading
to
what
that
process
might
look
like
last
Monday,
so
they
will
I
think
if,
in
due
course,
second
and
third
reading,
they
will
have
in
a
month's
time
a
detailed
layout
of
the
process
they
have
to
follow
in
expending
that
100
million
dollars.
Now,
let
me
say
this:
it
doesn't
have
to
be
spent
in
its
entirety.
Within
that
two-week
two-year
window,
the
two-year
window
is
is
to
raise
the
monies
necessary
to
amortize
the
bonds.
The
100
million
dollars
itself,
the
100
million
dollars
that
you
get.
I
There
is
not
a
constraint
in
the
statute
saying
that
you've
got
to
spend
all
that
money
within
two
years.
Okay,
obviously
I
think
there
is
some
there's
some
urgency
here,
because
development's
occurring
you
see
large
tracts
of
land
being
clear-cut,
so
I
do
think
that
whatever
the
county
puts
in
place,
they
do
need
to
act
with
a
degree
of
urgency
because
of
what
we're
seeing
right
now.
The
third
question
was
in
regard
to
making
sure
there's
an
equitable
allocation
to
to
Hilton
Head.
I
The
statute
itself
requires
that
there'd
be
an
equitable
expenditure
of
those
dollars
throughout
the
county,
and
there
is
a
Citizens
group
that
has
appointed
to
oversee
and
to
make
sure
that
the
county
abides
by
that.
So
your
remedy,
in
the
event
that
they
were
spending
all
the
money
in
a
certain
part
of
the
county
to
the
exclusion
of
Hilton
Head,
you
would
have
the
ability
to
file
a
complaint
with
the
Department
of
Revenue,
because
they're
the
ones
that
are
monitoring
this.
Thank
you
before.
K
Thank
you
Senator.
Thank
you
so
much
for
your
presentation
and
for
all
the
work
you
do
for
us
here
in
Beaufort,
County
I
have
some
experience
with
land
conservation
and
I
have
experience
with
Bond
referendums
as
well,
and
I
have
found
that.
Yes,
indeed,
the
citizens
of
Beaufort
County
support
land
conservation
measures.
K
My
concern
here
is
the
appearance
of
duplication
between
this
and
the
role
of
critical
lands
program.
One
and
then
two
I
appreciate
you
being
here
to
educate
us
and
to
tell
us
what
it's
about,
but
I,
don't
see
a
broader
education
program
ongoing
and
I
think
it's
vital
to
have
that.
So
the
citizens
of
the
county
understand
what
they're
voting
for
in.
I
Regard
to
that
latter,
Mr
Stanford
you're,
going
to
see
in
my
calendar
for
the
next
six
to
seven
weeks,
has
been
filled
up
with
speaking
engagements
to
Civic
groups.
Poas,
any
group
I
can
get
before
I
think
you're,
seeing
slide
decks
and
PowerPoints
being
prepared.
You've
got
you
know
other
advocacy
groups
at
the
conservation,
Builders
of
South
Carolina,
the
coastal
conservation
League.
I
They
will
be
taking
the
field
to
explain
this
because
you're
right
anytime,
you
ask
the
citizens
to
improve
something
you
got
to
make
the
case
affirmatively
for
it,
and
the
burden
is
upon
us
to
make
that
case
now.
In
regard
to
whether
it's
duplicative
of
what
the
wrong
critical
lands
does
I
would
simply
say
that
I
mean
I
wanted
more
than
100
million.
Quite
frankly,
I
was
wanting
to
be
more
more
aggressive.
I
wanted
to
go
over
five
to
six
years
and
to
have
enough
money
raised
to
amortize
500
million
dollars
worth
of
bonds.
I
I
think
that's
the
kind
of
scale
that's
going
to
be
necessary
if
we're
actually
going
to
make
a
difference,
but
but
so
to
me,
given
given
the
funds
that
we're
talking
about
we're,
not
talking
about
duplication
you're
just
talking
about
instead
of
you
know,
having
the
funds
that
are
available
that
were
on
critical
lands
and
I
think
they
have
what
about
15
to
20
million
Jesse,
how
much?
How
much
is
left
in
real
critical
income
about
right?
I
I
That's
not
possible
in
this
case,
because
Mr
Harkins
point
you
don't
know
what
land
is
going
to
be
acquired,
you
don't
know
yet
it
depends
on
what
you're
able
to
negotiate
out
there
in
the
marketplace,
and
so
in
recognition
of
that,
we
set
up
this
citizen
monitoring
group
to
make
sure
that
the
dollars
are
expended
equitably.
Okay,
so
so
that's
why
this
is
a
little
bit
more
stringent
in
terms
of
oversight
than
a
typical
local
option:
sales
tax,
which
lists
all
the
projects.
I
B
I
E
Thank
you
mayor,
welcome
glad
you're
here,
yes,
ma'am
I
appreciate
hearing
about
this
referendum
again
as
someone
who
is
strongly
opposed
to
over
development
and
looking
for
ways
that
we
can
create
a
more
sensible
plan
here
on
Hilton
Head
I
wholeheartedly
support
what
you're
doing
I
think
that
it's
in
the
best
interest
of
Hilton
Head
that
it
when
we
look
at
the
outside
regions,
which
we
see
the
development
that's
going
on
and
the
impacts
that
they
can
have
on
our
Island
and
our
quality
life
for
the
residents.
It
makes
sense.
So
thank
you.
Thank.
L
L
Will
the
statute
prohibit
those
rights
from
being
used
elsewhere,
or
will
there
be
enough
latitude
there
to
where
we
can
maybe
transfer
developmental
rates
in
areas
that
we
may
need
some
help,
I'm
I'm
kind
of
thinking
about
the
housing
initiative
as
far
as
affordability
within
the
county?
Is
there
any.
I
The
language
of
the
statute
speaks
in
terms
of
decreasing
overall
densities,
and,
and
it
really
is
predicated
upon
these
densities
occurring
in
an
environment
that
can't
support
it.
So
I
think
you
know.
If
what
you're
asking
me
is,
could
you
purchase
land
and
then
adaptively
reuse
it
for
a
less
intensive
purpose?
I,
don't
think
so.
I
I
do
think,
there's
an
argument
to
be
made
that
the
quarter
point
that
you
guys
charge
on
the
sale
of
real
property
that
those
funds
I
think
there
is
a
reasonable
argument
to
be
made
that
those
revenues,
if
you
wanted
to
use
it
to
purchase,
develop
property
and
then
were
you
to
employ
that
property
in
a
less
intensive
way.
But
that's
an
ordinance
issue.
That's
construing
an
ordinance!
The
per
this
statue
doesn't
give
that
sort
of
latitude
and
now
that's
something.
I
We
can
certainly
talk
about
going
forward
and
I
know
on
your
agenda
and
something
that
you're
intensely
interested
in
I
know.
Mr
Atlantic
says
as
well,
is
affordable
housing
and
what
we
can
do
to
to
promote
that
I
think
there
are
a
number
of
things
that
that
we
can
do
and
I'm
willing
to
work
with
you
on
one
of
them
being
loosening
the
restrictions
on
atax
and
H
Tax
dollars,
so
that
you
can
use
them
if
Town
Council
wants
to
use
them
for
purposes
other
than
a
DMO
or
or
tourism
or
destination
oriented
things.
I
You
ought
to
have
that
flexibility
to
me.
If
you're
consistent
with
home
rule,
you
ought
to
be
getting
latitude
to
localities
to
use
that
money,
but
but
I
think
that's
the
that
that's
probably
the
more
feasible
way
of
generating
a
revenue
stream
amending
the
statutes
in
regard
to
a
tax
and
hdacs
than
this
than
this
green
space.
Ordinance
Fiona.
Thank
you.
Yes,
sir
Mr
Lennox.
M
Tom
I
think
the
the
challenge
won't
be
with
acquiring
land
fee.
Simple.
We've
got
quite
a
track
record
of
the
ability
to
do
that.
I
think
the
challenge
in
purchasing
density,
yeah
and
that's
that's
a
new
road
to
hoe
and
putting
the
appropriate
value
on
density
rights
is
something
that
may
be
really
difficult
to
do
so,
I
think,
as
as
we
go
forward
at
the
county
level,
that's
something
to
think
about,
because
we
can't
spend
100
million
dollars
buying
land
where
we're
going
to
spend
that
money
is
buying
density
rates.
I
So
so
there's
got
to
be
a
commensurate
agreement
among
the
municipalities
and
the
counties
that
they
got
to
stop
with
this
headlong
Rush
create
more
densities,
I
mean
it's
just
it's.
Otherwise,
it's
not
workable.
The
only
reason:
I
added
development,
because
you're
right
typically
with
role
in
critical
lands,
you're
talking
about
buying
up
open
space
and
land.
Our
problem
is
that
land
has
already
been
been
assigned
vested
rights
vested
developments.
M
I
N
David
I
fully
support
what
you're
trying
to
do
I
think
it's
one
more
way
that
we
can
get
development
in
our
region
under
control,
I,
think
environmentally,
it's
important
as
well.
So
thank
you
and
I'd
also
like
to
thank
you
for
your
leadership
and
willingness
to
help
in
the
terms
of
the
a
tax
and
also
Hospitality
tax,
as
you
see
fit.
Thank
you
very
much.
Well,.
I
That's
and
and
I'll
drop
those
bills,
but
that's
going
to
be
an
area
where
the
other
side
takes
the
field
right,
because
there's
there's
a
parochial
interest
in
those
dollars
by
certain
stakeholders.
You
know
I
was
talking
with
the
mayor
of
of
Myrtle
Beach
and,
and
she
wants
to
do
this
as
well.
She
also
wants
to
loosen
up
the
restrictions
on
those
dollars
because
they
have
flood
mitigation
problems
up
there.
So
you
got
allies
in
this
effort,
but
there's
also
going
to
be
those
sticking.
The
field
on
the
other
side
appreciate.
J
L
Sir
North
Korea
to
that
point
you
know
we
talk
a
lot
during
our
a
strategic
planning
workshop
on
this
particular
topic,
and
we
know
that
we
have
to
find
Revenue
sources.
Okay
and
since
we
do
have
a
team
working
with
Mr
Lando
on
this
topic,
I
would
just
respectfully
ask
that
we
add
the
resolution
request
that
Senator
Davis
has
put
in
here
for
us
for
consideration.
I
And
I
think
to
that
point:
Mr
Brown,
a
resolution-
if
you
wanted
to
should
also
consider
requesting
that
the
state
set
aside
a
greater
amount
of
lie,
tax
lie
Tech
tax
credits
that
can
be
coupled
with
the
federal
tax
credits
because
I
think
right
now,
it's
a
20,
20
million
I.
Believe
you
really
need
to
get
the
50
million
dollars
in
order
to
motivate
developers
to
go
ahead
and
develop
affordable
housing.
I
I
Think
that's
that's
huge
and
then
I
think
this
is
another
area
where
we
can
kind
of
show
an
example
of
how
do
you
address
this
Workforce,
affordable
housing,
I
kind
of
use,
those
two
terms
interchangeably,
although
I
know
they're
different
but
I-
think
a
combination
of
increasing
the
the
state
lie
test
credits
for
four
percent:
nine
percent,
affordable
housing,
more
latitude
with
atax
and
H
Tax
dollars.
I.
Think
those
two
are
the
main
things
we
can
do
at
the
legislative
level
in
Columbia.
B
H
Both
of
those
programs
were
were
primarily
funded,
initially
funded
from
the
American
Rescue
plan
act
that
was
Federal
grant
monies
as
a
covid
recovery
program.
So
you
pledged
four
hundred
thousand
dollars
into
home
repair
and
you
pledged
two
hundred
thousand
dollars
into
sewer
connection
and
Missy
is
here
to
give
a
quick
update
on
how
great
these
programs
are
going
thanks.
Missy.
A
We
have
had
an
enormous
activity.
With
this
program.
We've
had
76
applications
received
of
those
47
of
them
have
been
approved
already,
and
we
have
several
that
are
that
are
still
under
review.
So
we've
had
an
enormous
activity
with
the
program
we
have
not
yet
sought
contractor
bidding
yet,
which
is
the
next
thing
I'm
going
to
update
on.
We
are
still
seeking
contractors
to
help
us
get
into
these
homes
and
make
these
repairs.
A
So
we
are
seeking
qualified
contractors
to
do
the
work
to
come
into
the
homes
and
so
we're
looking
for
General,
Contractors
and
carpenters
and
electricians
and
plumbers
to
help
us
do
this
work
in
homes
that
very
much
need
the
assistance.
I'm.
The
point
of
contact
for
the
applicants
for
both
the
Stewart
connection
program,
the
home
safety
repair
program,
as
well
as
the
contractors,
so
they
can
come
through
Community
Development
to
me
and
I-
can
help
get
them
in
the
queue.
So
we
can
execute
that
program
as
well
to
move
on
to
the
Sewer
connection
program.
A
We've
received
eight
applications
for
that
program
and
we're
working
through
with
PSD
to
get
those
lines
installed.
That
is
a
Cooperative
program
that
we're
working
with
deepwell
on
and
I
just
wanted
to
take
the
opportunity,
real,
quick
to
read
an
email
that
I
got
from
Sandy
Gillis
executive
director
of
deepwell
who's,
helping
us
with
the
administration
of
the
program-
and
this
is
this-
was
dated
a
couple
weeks
ago.
So
the
numbers
are
greater
than
what's
included
in
this
update.
A
The
the
loophole
with
that
Project
SAFE,
didn't
support
renters
and
the
towns
program
was
Sandy
adds
that
this
is
a
win-win
and
many
more
applications
have
been
picked
up
from
their
office
and
so
more
applications
will
be
on
the
way
very
soon
and
I.
Think
that
summarized
the
summarizes
really
the
great
effort
of
both
programs,
which
are
collaborative
programs
and
are
making
an
impact
in
the
community
to
make
these
critical
improvements.
L
I
did
want
to
just
make
one
comment:
this
program
really
speaks
to
community
Wellness,
but
on
a
side
note,
I
want
to
thank
Missy
personally,
because
when
folks
are
in
need,
there
needs
to
be
a
certain
level
of
comfort
and
Trust
as
far
as
having
conversations
okay
and
you've
done
a
bang-up
job
with
being
there
for
folks,
I
really
appreciate
the
hard
work
that
you
put
into
this
program.
Thank
you.
B
L
H
O
You
Mr
Orlando
and
good
afternoon,
mayor
and
council
members
for
the
record
I'm
Sheri
mendrick,
the
towns,
floodplain
administrator,
both
items,
E
and
F
are
mine.
So
if
it's
okay,
I'd
like
to
touch
both
on
the
same
time,
item
e
is
the
annual
evaluation
of
the
program
for
public
information
and
item
f
is
the
update
for
the
Low
Country
natural
Hazard
mitigation
plan.
Both
updates
are
required
to
be
presented
to
Town
Council
annually
for
continued
participation
in
the
town's
Community
reading
system.
Our
participation
in
this
program
gets
all
of
our
citizens.
O
L
Good
afternoon,
how
are
you
I've
been
abreast
of
South
Carolina
environmental
control
having
round
tables
around
environmental,
social
justice?
Okay
and
I
understand
that
there
are
a
lot
of
monies
in
that
Arena
I'm
just
curious
to
know
if
you've
tapped
into
that
to
any
degree
so
that
we
can
start
to
think
about
long-term
planning
for
mitigation
when
it
comes
to
flooding
on
Hilton
Head.
O
Actually,
you
and
I
had
attended
the
meeting
out
at
St
Helena
Island
about
some
new
up-and-coming
FEMA
program
changes.
So
we
are
working
through
that
process
at
the
next
Galaxy
task
force
meeting,
not
the
next
one,
but
the
one
in
November
we're
going
to
start
evolving
that
program
and
bringing
that
to
our
community
perfect.
H
P
Guys,
yes,
sir
good
afternoon,
Mr
manager,
Mr
Mayor
Town
Council
yeah
I'm,
going
to
give
a
brief
update
on
this
project.
This
is
a
DOT
project
and
I
wanted
some
visuals
up
here
to
help
you
refresh
your
memory
as
what's
out
there
and
what's
going
on
dot
project
apoc
is
the
contractor.
It
was
a
design,
build
infrastructure.
Consulting
Engineers
is
the
design
engineer
of
record
picture
of
the
toll
booths.
P
The
administrative
building
the
town
is
going
to
take
possession
of
that
building
after
the
project
we've
been
in
working
with
the
D.O.T
for
a
few
years.
On
that
here's
a
picture
of
mid-progress
in
construction.
They
started
in
March,
they
had
hoped
to
start
earlier,
but
that's
where
we
landed.
Here's
a
visual
image
of
the
the
before
you
see
nine
Lanes,
you
see
all
of
the
asphalt.
You
see
the
street
lights
along
the
side,
here's
a
rendition
of
the
after
four
lanes.
P
You
see
the
lights
are
gone,
you
see
either
gonna
stabilize
and
what
they
need
to
do
stabilize
the
earth
I
want
to
mention.
This
will
be
part
of
the
corridor
project
for
Palmetto
Bay
Road
we've
extended
the
limits
up
to
Marston
road
on
the
Cross
Island
Parkway.
So
after
the
state's
completed
their
toll
booth
removal,
the
pavement
resurfacing
Etc,
we
will
bring
our
you
know,
design
team
in
to
look
at
what
we
want
to
advance
up
the
corridor
up
to
Marston,
Road
and
I
wanted
to
bring
these
images
in
this.
P
Through
your
attention,
there's
overhead
street
lights
there
they
were
put
there
for
the
purpose
of
safety.
As
you
approach
the
toll
booths,
those
are
to
be
removed,
I
understand
from
the
dot
they
had
looked
at,
bringing
those
to
Charleston
and
trying
to
repurpose
them
on
another
project.
They
don't
meet
current
standards,
they
said
so
I
know
there
were
some
queries
early
on
about.
Well,
those
lights
remain,
you
know,
would
they
serve
a
function
Etc,
but
the
dot
has
informed
us
that
they
would
be
removing
those
here's
some
more
for
your
visual
appreciation
and.
P
There
you
go
and
one
other
thing
if
I
may
just
bring
it
up.
I
know,
there's
probably
a
lot
of
interest
in
the
room.
The
red
segments
there
are
resurfacing,
that's
going
to
take
place
by
the
dot
aipac
the
same
contractor
that
is
doing
the
toll.
Booth
removal
will
be
doing
that
they
have
to
be
finished
by
June
of
2023,
and
so
what
I
hear
today
is
that
they
will
start
after
the
new
year.
P
So
the
completion
date
on
the
Cross
Island
is
they'll,
be
finished,
with
Paving
operations
by
the
end
of
October
and
substantial
completion
by
the
end
of
November,
and
you
see
that
green
segment
down
there.
That
is
a
phase
that
is
out
to
bid
right
now.
That
will
be
a
future
phase.
Of
course
I
think
we'd
like
them
all
to
do
it
all
at
one
time,
but
that's
that's
how
the
dot
is
going
to
prosecute
that
work.
P
Of
the
Cross
Island
should
be
15
years.
I'll
confirm
that
with
the
D.O.T,
but
but
for
the
section
they've
added
out
there
they
have
whether
milling
and
building
back.
You
know
they
milled
four
inches
in
One
Direction
and
paid
five.
The
mill
three
and
paid
four
in
the
other,
and
then
I'm
gonna,
put
two
inches
of
a
new
Surface
course.
On
top
of
that,
so
in
the
end
we
will
have
three
more
inches
of
structure
and
life
on
that
pavement.
But
but
y'all
I'll
look
into
that
and
confirm
what
they
believe.
K
P
B
M
You
mayor
saloko,
met
on
August,
23rd
and
celebrated
their
five
years
of
existence,
and
we
had
presentations
from
Tom,
Davis
and
other
local
delegations.
In
addition,
there
was
a
lot
of
discussion
about
the
proposed
mou
between
the
municipalities,
Jasper
County
and
Beaufort
County
for
the
Regional
Housing
Trust
Fund,
which
is
an
agenda
item
today.
M
N
The
bids
the
construction
bids
for
the
terminal
expansion
came
in
higher
than
the
original
estimates
and
the
county
made
the
decision
to
rebid
the
project
in
phases,
with
the
first
phase
determined
by
the
amount
of
money
that
is
on
hand
at
this
time
and
then.
Secondly,
just
by
way
of
information,
there
were
fewer
commercial
flights
this
summer,
but
the
occupancy
or
passenger
loads
were
higher.
So
it's
still
a
strong
draw
to
the
island
and
the
airport
seems
to
be
moving
along
pretty
well.
N
N
Is
that
what
you're
asking
yes,
sir?
Thank
you?
The
public
planning
committee
met
on
August
31st
to
hear
a
presentation
by
the
short-term
rental
vendor
gov
OS.
Its
presentation
demonstrated
its
comprehensive
approach
to
addressing
monitoring
and
assisting
and
enforcement
of
short-term
rentals
and
for
your
information.
M
Yes,
thank
you,
John.
The
FNA
committee
met
this
morning
at
10
o'clock,
with
with
three
agenda
items.
The
first
was
the
report
from
Scott
weirman
of
the
Community
Foundation
of
the
Low
Country,
and
they
have
dispersed
the
second
500
000
tranche
to
non-profits
involved
in
servicing
the
community
Through
the
pandemic.
I
gotta
say
they
did
an
incredible
job
and
virtually
all
of
the
applications
were
funded.
M
C
B
E
I
was
tremendously
impressed
by
the
level
of
equipment
staff
opportunity
for
assistance
in
medical
and
dental
that
occurs
there.
The
Hydro
Garden
that
they've
extended
and
now
are
providing
food
sources
to
the
community
and
congratulations
to
them
for
all
that
they're
doing
for
our
community.
Thank
you.
C
R
Just
to
say,
we
have
a
Hilton
Head,
Island
candidates,
candidates,
Forum
on
affordable
and
Workforce
housing,
and
that
is
at
Christ
Lutheran
on
October
4th
6
to
8
pm.
Please
be
there
and
I
just
want
to
make
a
statement
about
about
your
ongoing
projects
for
ongoing
efforts
for
Workforce
housing.
On
Sunday,
we
held
a
community
meeting
of
the
Hilton
Head
home
Coalition
for
affordable
housing.
We
had
representatives
from
many
congregations
on
Hilton
Head
from
non-profits
and
many
other
concerned
citizens.
R
One
of
our
attendees
used
Ecclesiastes
3
to
share
his
feelings
about
housing
opportunities
on
Hilton
Head
Island
for
everything
there
is
a
season
and
a
time
for
every
matter
under
Heaven,
a
time
to
break
down
and
a
time
to
build
up
a
time
to
keep
silent
and
a
time
to
speak.
I
do
think
that
we
are
at
an
ideal
time
to
do
something
about
affordable
and
Workforce
housing,
but
that
time
could
easily
slip
away.
R
We
appreciate
the
steps
of
the
council
that
you
have
already
made
and
taken
thus
far,
including
adopting
the
workforce
housing
strategic
plan
in
2019,
which
everyone
who
was
in
office
at
the
time
approved.
We
appreciate
all
of
your
leadership
in
stepping
up
and
voting
to
make
a
real
plan
and
framework
for
affordable
housing
by
November
1st.
R
We
appreciate
your
continued
collaboration
and
willingness
to
reach
out
to
others
and
hear
other
voices,
and
we
also
want
to
remind
you
that
the
time
is
now
to
do
something:
bold,
something,
far-reaching
and
Innovative,
something
that
will
enrich
and
sustain
in
this
community
for
Generations,
something
that
people
will
look
back
on
decades
later
and
say.
That
was
great.
That
was
a
turning
point
for
Hilton
Head.
We
might
never
have
another
moment
like
this
right
now.
R
There
has
never
been
more
support
for
Workforce
housing
on
Hilton
Head
than
there
is
right
now
the
chimney
Cove
crisis,
while
temporarily
averted,
is
still
looming
on
the
horizon
and
could
happen
to
them
or
to
anyone
else.
The
next
six
weeks
on
Hilton
Head
are
what
Christians
would
call
a
Kairos
moment
a
moment
when
everything
is
aligned,
where
the
conditions
are
right
to
get
things
accomplished.
Don't
let
that
Kairos
moment
slip
away?
Everyone
seems
dedicated
to
preserving
our
Green
Space.
R
S
Good
afternoon,
gentlemen
and
lovely
lady
Tamara,
congratulations,
Mark
Orlando
for
running
a
wonderful
strategic,
Workshop,
everybody
I
think
voted
to.
Have
you
back.
My
concerns
are
twofold.
Today
one
is
the
first
concern
for
the
use
of
Dei
and
or
CRT
when
these
terms
go
beyond
simple
English
language
subscriptions.
S
And
if
it's
not
American
constitutionally
biblical
teachings,
we
all
should
agree
to
the
basic
guides
and
then
for
our
behaviors
at
such
time.
My
comment
would
no
longer
be
true.
I
would
suggest
government
restraints
going
beyond
the
normal
English
language
descriptions
of
these
terms
item
two
regarding
the
status
of
Route
278
other
than
an
embarrassing
mess
of
governmental
behaviors.
S
At
such
time,
Hilton
Head
Island
can
specify,
since
we
have
at
least
till
2024
the
current
estimate
of
time
of
start
a
bridge
project
and
current
estimate
stopping
time
of
2028
current
estimate.
Completion
Target
date
should
be
possible.
This
should
be
sufficient
for
Hilton
Head
Islanders.
Without
the
concerns,
my
opinion
is,
if
we
did
nothing,
the
current
two
lanes
would
suffice
and
would
be
fine.
S
T
Good
afternoon
Mr
Mayor
Town
Council,
my
name
is
Richard
Busey
and
my
wife
and
I
have
lived
on
Hilton
Head
since
2004.
the
reasons
we
moved
here
were
many,
but
they
included
the
natural
beauty
of
the
island
and
the
fact
that
the
community
was
a
community
that
respected
nature.
I
am
one
of
the
nearly
ten
thousand
yep.
You
heard
me
right.
Ten
thousand
individuals
who
have
signed
a
petition
asking
This
Town
Council
to
reject
the
state's
proposed
plans
to
turn
our
entryway
into
a
concrete
jungle.
T
There
truly
should
be
an
independent
review
done
too
much
is
at
stake.
The
Town
Council
should
not
Buckle
under
the
threat
of
the
County
Council
that
they
will
proceed
with
or
without
the
town's
cooperation.
In
some
circles,
that's
described
as
blackmail.
The
threats
from
the
County
Council
should
be
ignored.
We
should
not
surrender
to
the
county.
The
Staggering
cost,
as
you
well
know,
of
this
project
may
be
as
high
as
500
million
dollars.
T
T
C
D
The
Coalition
of
Island
neighbors
I've,
been
speaking
and
writing
to
you
since
the
onset
of
the
278
Gateway
Corridor
project.
In
fact,
next
week
is
the
fourth
anniversary
of
me
addressing
Council
on
this
matter.
For
me,
it's
been
a
frustrating
and
in
many
ways
unproductive
four
years
on
the
positive
side,
we
do
have
guiding
principles
for
this
project
which
you,
as
a
body
adopted.
We
also
have
agreed
to
install
the
Adaptive
traffic
system,
which
will
control
signals
based
on
real-time
vehicle
movement.
D
As
I
reviewed.
My
past
comments,
I
recognized.
My
message
has
been
pretty
simple
and
consistent.
Do
not
compromise
the
interests
of
Hilton
Head
Island.
The
mou
before
you
today
does
not
meet
the
goals
you
approved
at
this
town
council
meeting
a
mere
four
weeks
ago.
Your
goal,
the
county
and
the
town
mutually
agree
to
work
together
in
good
faith,
to
address
the
feasibility
and
merits
of
recommendations
previously
made
by
mksk
and
those
which
may
be
made
by
the
independent
consultant.
D
This
mou
proposes
a
consultant
selection
committee
consisting
of
three
County
and
two
Town
members,
thus
biasing
the
counts,
the
consultant
selection
process
towards
the
county
and
fails
to
establish
a
process
to
consider
the
merits
of
the
recommendations.
Your
goal,
the
independent
consultant,
will
conduct
an
end-to-end
simulation
and
study
through
and
Beyond
the
project
limits
to
include
additional
intersections
materially
consistent
with
the
scope
of
work,
Town
Council
set
forth,
including
project
impacts
and
a
mitigation
assessment.
This
mou
includes
no
specific
scope
of
work.
D
I
saw
the
results
of
a
poor
scope
firsthand
when
I
served
on
the
last
independent
Review
Committee
dilution
of
the
scope
of
work
tainted,
the
previous
consultant's
work
and
results
were
meaningless.
We
cannot
repeat
that
failed
process.
The
county
needs
to
agree
to
your
scope
of
work,
determining
both
project
impacts
and
a
mitigation
assessment.
Your
goal,
the
county
and
town,
will
coordinate
with
scdot
to
perform
a
value
engineering
of
this
project
seeking
the
best
possible
value
for
lowest
cost.
This
mou
completely
ignores
value
engineering.
D
U
U
It
also
raises
concerns
about
potential
violation
with
NEPA,
because
it
could
be
perceived
as
proceeding
towards
a
prejudged
outcome.
The
purpose
of
NEPA
again
is
to
perform
that
objective
holistic
analysis
without
a
predetermined
decision
in
mind.
If
the
independent
review
is
not
given
the
opportunity
to
present
the
results
before
the
Napa
process
moves
forward,
that
raises
very
serious
concerns,
and
we
just
wanted
to
express
those
to
you
here
today
as
you're
considering
this
mou.
Thank
you.
Thank.
B
G
Thank
you
for
having
me
here
again.
I've
also
been
at
this
for
four
years.
This
project
is
going
to
dump
heavy
traffic
in
the
top
of
our
town,
cause
years
of
construction
and
major
impacts,
yet
has
no
proof
that
it
will
solve
our
congestion
problem
over
the
critical
paths,
a
to
d
and
a
to
e
in
the
map.
You've
all
seen
before
any
engineering
school
in
the
country
would
look
at
that
map
and
look
at
your
project
and
say
there
are
major
flaws.
G
We
all
want
a
good
project,
but
we
need
the
results
of
the
independent
review
to
get
it
when
I
Surrender
the
keys
of
the
town
before
then,
in
return
for
empty
County
promises,
a
new
Town
Council
will
be
elected
in
about
seven
weeks.
Consider
how
your
unnecessary
surrender,
if
you
do
it
today
before
that
time,
will
appear
to
citizens.
G
The
county
warns
delay
in
all
the
things
that
the
lay
will
cause,
but
the
county
is
the
main
cause
of
the
delay
if
they
had
not
deliberately
derailed
the
independent
review
in
2020
Mr
Rodman.
We
have
written
proof
of
that.
We
will
be
ready
to
start
today
in
April,
Senator
Davis
God
bless
him
negotiated
time
and
funding
for
the
review
from
Dot
and
from
the
infrastructure
Bank,
giving
us
the
means
to
do
what
required
due
diligence.
Why,
in
Heaven's
name?
Are
we
not
doing
that?
G
G
Major
new
delay
will
emerge
also
from
almost
ten
thousand
petitioners
in
other
groups,
as
they
Converge
on
NEPA
authorities
and
point
out
all
the
flaws
in
the
plan
that
will
force
certainly
a
longer
neeper
review
cycle
or
hopefully
delay
the
pharmacy
that
the
county
wants.
That
could
all
be
avoided
if
the
county
in
town
did
their
homework
now
before
submitted
a
bug
written
plan,
an
independent
review
or
recession
could
also
lower
total
total
costs,
which
no
one
has
ever
properly
computed.
No
one
knows
the
total
cost
of
this
project.
G
For
two
years,
the
county
prevented
an
unbiased,
end-to-end,
independent
review
that
might
reveal
missing
and
hidden
Parts
impacts,
performance
and
extra
costs.
We
have
foyers
of
emails
that
show
that
there
are
hidden
parts
that
we
haven't
been
told
about
this
MOA.
If
you
pass,
it
continues
that
pattern.
It
promises
an
ill-defined
review
with
majority
County
control
and
no
citizen
members
after
you
sign
away
our
consent,
and
we
hope
you
don't
sign
away
our
consent.
G
This
is
like
buying
a
used
car
from
an
untrustworthy,
auto
dealer
who
forbids
an
inspection
and
Promises
to
someday
fix
only
the
problems.
They
agree
with
approving
this
MOA
for
an
incomplete
plan
without
proper
due
diligence
will
embarrass
anyone
who
votes
yesterday.
Please
don't
surrender
to
those
who
sweep
facts
under
the
rug
to
sell
us
an
incomplete
untested
lemon.
Thank
you.
V
Good
afternoon,
I
would
first
like
to
convey
that
many
Hilton
Head
Island
residents
are
very
appreciative
that
Hilton
Head
Town
Council
has
taken
the
initiative
to
install
an
island-wide,
state-of-the-art,
Adaptive
traffic
signal
system.
We
are
looking
forward
to
seeing
the
traffic
flow
benefits
that
will
accrue
from
this
new
system.
Thank
you.
V
Contrast
this
enlightened
and
rational
approach
to
the
idiocy
being
Advanced
by
the
twin
megalomaniacs
of
County
council,
Mrs,
Rodman
and
pessiman
at
the
September
12th
County
council
meeting
chairman
pessimid
proclaimed
that
and
I
quote.
Beaufort
County
is
the
lead
Agency
for
the
project.
Two-Thirds
of
the
county
project
cannot
and
will
not
be
changed,
no
matter
how
many
additional
studies
we
do.
It's
direct
quote
the
federal
guidelines
which
pessiment
maintains
maintain
mandate
and
11
lane
bridge
are
non-negotiable.
V
How
stupid
do
they
think
we
are
their
Collective
audacity,
truly
knows
no
bounds.
Pacman
and
the
County
Council
are
once
again
attempting
to
bully
Town
Council
into
acquiescing
to
and
approving
their
totally
one-sided
County
mou
version.
This
would
give
complete
control
of
the
project,
save
the
area
east
of
windmill
Harbor
to
the
county,
a
county
that
is
perfectly
content
to
build
a
gigantic
aircraft
carrier
deck.
V
Looking
unibridge
as
the
gateway
to
our
beautiful
island
and
doing
so
prior
to
any
kind
of
independent
assessment
of
whether
such
a
monstrosity
would
have
any
positive
effect
on
traffic
flow
onto
Hilton
Head
Island
their
plan
is
totally
unacceptable
on
so
many
levels.
So
please
send
the
egomaniac
to
lead
County
Council
a
resounding
message
by
voting
to
reject
their
totally
inappropriate
mou
proposal.
If
you
can
muster
a
unanimous
vote
to
reject
that,
will
send
an
even
stronger
message
that
Hilton
Head
town
government
will
not
count
out
to
the
County
Council
bullies.
Thank
you.
Q
Comment
begins
I'd
like
to
get
these
studies
and
I'd
like
to
read
these
studies
out.
If
I
may,
this
will
help
the
position
of
the
Town
Council
I
think
function
a
lot
better.
So
these
studies
are
roles
of
a
planning
condition.
Broadband

of
a

all
in

you
are
allowing
this

to
waste
and
steal
millions
of

You're
all
guilty
of
this,
we
must
find
new
ways
like
Tom
Davis
is
suggesting
a
penny
tax
to
buy,
to
buy
more
land
and
protect

and
I
endorse
this,
but
we
also
must
use
other
ways
like
chamber.
Q
Aid

is
a
new
different
way
to
let
the
tourists
help
us
buy
more
land
and
use
Hospitality

funds
as
well,
maybe
add
an
additional
tax
on
cigarettes
and
alcohol
and
also
explore
a

C
X
Good
afternoon,
council
members
Mr
Mayor
Mr
Orlando,
and
thank
you
for
the
opportunity
to
speak
with
you
today.
So
my
topic
is
Workforce.
Housing
I've
been
watching
Town
Council
debate
the
perfect
way
to
solve
Workforce
housing
on
the
island
for
several
years,
I
tiered
the
vision,
project
management
team
as
a
volunteer
in
2017
to
through
2019.
So
I
am
intimately
aware
of
this
issue,
as
it
was
determined
then
and
frankly,
actually
identified
decades
before
I've
been
concerned
about
the
lack
of
action,
especially
since
our
neighbors
at
chimney
Cove
received
their
eviction
notices.
X
Yesterday,
I
spent
some
time
re-reading.
The
workforce
housing
strategic
plan
adopted
by
Council
in
2019.
a
framework
and
timeline
for
the
adoption
of
the
plan
exists
and
has
set
largely
unused
since
its
announcement.
Our
community
has
not
batted
an
eye
at
the
North
Point
project.
Now
one
person
that
I
know
of
has
protested
that
this
project
should
not
happen.
X
Our
community
recognizes
that
affordable
housing
is
needed
for
our
Island's
Workforce
from
nurses,
teachers,
physical
therapists
to
day
care
workers
and
Landscape
people.
In
my
career
as
a
consultant,
we
often
recognize
the
value
of
the
s
and
the
workforce.
Housing
strategic
plan
recommends
establishing
a
public-private
local
Workforce,
Housing
Trust
Fund
as
its
first
step,
and
that's
the
yes
and
here's
the
and
while
the
framework
is
being
created
and
finalized,
it
is
never
too
early
to
have
a
funding
source
in
place
right
now.
X
Previously,
the
hospitality
Community
expressed
support
for
an
increase
in
their
Hospitality
tax
if
the
proceeds
are
dedicated
toward
mitigating
Workforce
housing
issues.
So
please
investigate
this
possibility
and
a
third
option
could
be
a
creative
use
of
accommodation,
tax
funding,
which
would
be
a
valuable
tool
across
the
region.
X
Y
Good
afternoon
Council,
Mr,
Mayor
and
Miss
Orlando.
Thank
you
for
giving
me
some
time
to
speak.
I
will
be
speaking
on
the
work
first
Workforce
housing
issue:
I
am
a
13-year
resident
of
on
the
island.
Both
my
husband
and
I
moved
here
and
retired.
Here
Coleman
was
an
Executive
Vice
President
at
Walmart
foundation,
and
we
make
this
our
home
we've
immersed
ourselves
in
this
community.
I
see
myself
as
a
non-profit
baby
I've
since
living
here,
I
have
volunteered
in
many
non-profits
on
the
island.
Y
Coleman
also
gives
to
this
back
to
this
community
as
he
serves
as
chairman
of
Volunteers
in
medicine.
I'm
glad
you
like
their
work
through
our
foundation
work.
We
know
that
affordable
and
Workforce
housing
is
not
an
issue
unique
to
this
island.
This
is
something
that
is
a
concern
across
the
country.
However,
what
is
unique
is
our
ability
to
address
the
issue
with
the
resources
that
only
Hilton
Head
can
provide
simply
put.
Y
We
have
resources
here
that
many
communities
across
the
country
do
not
have,
that
is
the
generosity
of
our
residents,
our
robust
non-profit
community
and
the
revenue
our
hospitality
industry
generates.
Those
are
all
new
new
attributes.
We
have
that
we
need
to
utilize
for
housing
products.
This
is
the
path
I
believe
to
solve
housing
on
Hilton,
Head
Island.
Y
The
lack
of
housing
is
something
that
we
need
to
grab
hold
of.
It
is
an
impediment
to
our
coveted
Island
lifestyle,
and
it
is
our
job
as
residents
of
this
community
to
take
care
of
people
who
are
taking
care
of
us
all
of
us,
especially
you,
as
elected
officials,
have
been
tasked
with
the
guardianship
of
this
special
place.
Y
Y
Are
air
conditioned
technicians,
our
teachers
at
our
private
and
public
schools,
the
people
that
deliver
our
meals
and
including
their
spouses
and
Families
I'm?
Sorry
building
a
life
here
on
building
on
Hilton
Head
Island
is
important
important
for
all
of
us.
We
need
a
dedicated
Revenue
stream
to
fund
our
Housing
Solutions,
Mr,
Mayor
and
Council.
Our
community
needs
you
to
take
bold
action
and
vote
a
fund
to
to
revenue
stream
for
work,
Housing
Solutions,
whether
through
the
meal,
Hospitality
revenue
or
other
sources.
This
should
not
be
left
to
a
referendum.
Y
Z
Z
I
greatly
appreciate
all
the
work
that
you've
done
over
the
years
and
I
think
the
mayor's
21
years
of
public
service
and
my
hat's
off
to
you
I
couldn't
do
it
myself.
So
thank
you
for
that
for
those
who
are
leaving
the
Town
Council,
so
I
wanted
to
talk
about
the
278,
Corridor,
I,
I,
hope
I'm,
not
going
to
repeat
myself,
but
yesterday,
I
went
to
the
Beaufort
County
public
facilities.
Z
But
then
you
wonder,
we
all
know
what
this
project
is
about,
and
we
all
know
where
the
where
the
the
friction
is
on
issues
that
need
to
be
resolved,
but
when
I
constantly
see
the
county
staying
on
that
same
track
and
not
listening
to
rational
to
rational
arguments,
I
just
wonder
who
they
serve.
Who
is
it?
Do
they
serve?
Do
they
serve
their
own
egos?
Do
they
serve
a
hospitality
industry,
a
chamber?
It's
it's
just
beyond
belief.
Z
So
I
hope
that
in
your
hearts
you
will
serve
the
the
community
and
the
residents
and
that
rational
thinking
will
will
prevail
and
that
the
the
intents
and
the
spirits
of
the
agreement
between
the
county
and
the
town
is
that
we
share
on
an
equal
basis
and
that
we
move
forward
in
a
very
constructive
way
to
build
this
bridge.
Thank
you.
Thank
you.

AA
Good
afternoon
mayor
Town
manager,
Council
two
things:
I'm
not
sure
I
have
enough
water
to
get
through
and
I've
got
Bob
Dylan
and
Joni
Mitchell
songs
running
through
my
head,
and
so
thank
you
for
having
me
just
for
refresher,
Town
Council,
adopt
their
resolution
authorized
in
the
town
manager
to
Executive
memorandum
of
agreement
with
the
county
for
the
Blue
Mountain
Parkway
Gateway
Corridor
project,
that
memorandum
of
understanding
included
very
specific
recitals
and
terms
that
I'm
going
to
go
through
Krista.
If
we
can
yes.
C
AA
You
know
before
we
lead
in
I,
just
want
to
make
sure
one
I
I
want
to
make
sure
this
is
a
Cooperative
effort,
I
think
what's
being
portrayed
a
lot
of
times
is
this
is
one
side
versus
the
other
and
that's
not
that's
not
the
intent
here.
I
want
to
say
the
purpose
of
the
Moa
is
to
define
the
steps
and
information
that's
needed
to
put
both
the
town
and
the
county
in
a
position
to
advance
this
project.
AA
Now,
when
we
go
through
these
steps
and
what
was
outlined
with
Council,
we
need
information
on
this
end-to-end
analysis
to
look
at
true
impacts
beyond
the
defined
project
limit.
That
was
part
of
that's
currently
part
of
the
project
and
there's
been
a
commitment
to
do
that.
Rmoa
and
scope
of
work
included,
extension
all
the
way
to
Sea
Pine
Circle
in
One,
Direction
and
through
to
hooping
crane
way
and
then
go
run
and
the
others.
AA
So
we
need
to
confirm
need
evaluation
of
full
impacts,
including
up
and
downstream
impacts
and
factoring
in
the
benefits
of
the
Adaptive
traffic
signal
benefits.
That
would
result
from
the
from
that
system
and
other
I.T
Intelligent
Traffic
Solutions
that
may
or
Transportation
solutions
that
may
present
themselves.
AA
AA
So
it's
a
little
different
than
what
was
outlined
in
your
packet,
but
we're
going
to
move
through
this
is
this
is
the
most
current
the
the
Beaufort
County
public
facilities
committee
approved
this
to
advance
to
their
Council
and
is
scheduled
to
be
before
County
Council.
Next
Monday
I
will
cover
everything
because
I
want
everyone
to
understand
the
changes
that
are
being
made.
AA
We
call
it
the
William
Hilton
Parkway
project,
Gateway
Corridor
project
the
county,
because
in
its
way
it's
identified
in
the
project
title
through
the
sib
application,
others
they
have
it
as
identified
as
the
us-278
corridor
project,
and
then
there's
been
some
minor
wording
here
to
the
traffic
signal
anyway,
but
they
drafted
it
as
the
county,
a
county
MOA
to
the
town
change
of
date.
Not
going
to
worry
about
this.
AA
We
go
through
all
the
recitals
and
I
just
want
to
focus
on
a
couple
key
points:
there's
a
little
bit
of
different
wording
that
we
said
that
it
impacts
the
citizens
and
visitors
to
Hilton
Head.
The
counties
revise
that
to
say
the
project
would
provide
safer
transportation
to
the
citizens
and
visitors.
AA
AA
AA
Just
some
minor
wording
to
talk
about
the
comments
that
we
all
have
received,
both
at
the
Town
and
County
level,
to
make
sure
that
we
look
at
the
impacts
outside
of
the
intent
or
the
current
scope
of
the
project
and
to
evaluate
those
impacts
down
Downstream
and
also
look
at
other
recommendations.
That
would
enhance
the
project
beyond
what
Town
Council
has
identified.
AA
I
think
the
end-to-end
is
going
to
give
us
some
recommendations
that
I
that
we
should
consider
before
the
project
is
finalized
and
then
the
the
only
material
change
from
the
recitals
for
me
is
the
Town
Council
approved
the
Moa
or
the
resolution
with
the
Moa,
and
it
included
a
a
scope
of
work
and
Council
authorized
the
town
manager
to
work
with
the
county
to
execute
that
MOA.
Materially
consistent
with
that
scope
of
work
and
so
yeah.
AB
So
this
one,
this
one
isn't
a
isn't
a
beautiful
term.
It's
just
the
fact
that
it
from
our
standpoint
felt
more
like
this
was
a
therefore
statement
than
a
wear
ass
statement,
so
this
is
addressed
in
the
Dare
floors
as
we
talk
about
the
independent
review,
this
second
independent
review
that
we
we're
all
talking
about,
so
that
was
that
was
really
the
reasoning
behind
that
change.
AA
So
that's
again
for
me
that
and
the
recitals,
that's
the
the
only
material
difference
between
the
two
other
than
some
minor
wordsmithing
I
think
there
needs
to
be
a
commitment
to
execute
the
end-to-end
analysis,
materially
consistent
with
the
scope
that
we
had
drafted
and
I
know.
I've
talked
with
Jared
and
and
we're
we
stand
ready
based
on
the
ultimate
will
of
town
and
County
Council.
To
do
so.
AA
AA
While
we
will
explain
what
was
request,
what
was
requested
by
Council
the
changes
by
the
county,
and
then
we
will
get
to
I
believe
a
point
to
answer,
questions
and
comments,
and
then
I
I'd
like
to
get
to
a
point
where
we
can
resolve
some
of
this
and
provide
input
or
the
output
of
this
meeting
will
help
the
county
in
revising
their
MOA
before
the
council
meeting
on
Monday
all
right.
So
these
were
the
terms
that
were
included
in
the
Moa
redlined
to
show
the
changes
between
the
town's
version
and
the
counties
version.
AA
The
red
the
the
text
struck
through
with
red
is
Town
Town
language
that
has
been
removed
and
the
and
the
blue
underlying
text
is
what's
been
added
by
the
county.
So
you
can
see
our
version
said:
we'd
Advance
a
project
through
equal
partnership,
all
decisions
will
and
approval
is
concerning
a
project
shall
be
made
in
writing
by
authorized
representatives
of
town
and
County
respectively.
The
the
County's
version
said
the
Town
and
County
agreed
to
advance
a
project
in
a
Cooperative,
Manner
and.
AB
So
to
address
this
one,
this
is
not
so
much
a
describing
the
50
50
partnership.
I
know
that's
kind
of
a
little
bit
of
the
intent
that
was
requested
here.
The
approvals
concerned,
the
project
I,
think
we
can
all
agree.
We've
we've
spent
a
lot
of
time
and
effort
on
both
sides
of
the
county
and
the
town
trying
to
even
get
this
agreement
as
well.
AB
So
the
fact
that
we're
moving
an
advancing
a
project
and
every
decision
Point
as
a
has
duly
written
and
signed
and
authorized
by
both
councils
is
arduous
task,
so
in
the
spirit
to
advance
the
project
that
was
the
intent
behind
this
change
is
that
we
are
working
here
we're
here
today
and
we're
working
with
staff.
So
the
intent
is
that
we're
going
to
work
together
and
build
this
as
stakeholders,
but
the
the
strikethrough
was
just
for
the
the
authorization
of
every
decision
point
so
so.
AA
AA
They
were
completed
with
Town
directly
with
Town
Council
staff,
assistants
and
our
Experts
of
mksk,
and
to
in
good
faith
Advance
those
recommendations
to
pursue
implementation
and
the
change
from
the
county
is
that
there's
a
provision
in
here
that
Town
Council
would
then
agree
that
this
will
be
one
Bridge
there'll,
be
one
Bridge
designed
and
built
as
part
of
the
project.
Yeah.
AB
So
agree
on
the
mksk.
A
lot
of
the
items
that
were
presented
out
at
mksk
have
already
been
incorporated
into
the
modified
preferred
alternative.
That
was
that
was
provided
at
the
public
information
in
March.
So
the
one
big
thing
out
of
the
mksk
was
the
two
Bridges
versus
one
bridge,
and
that's
that's
one
point
that
the
county
stands
firm
along
with
DOT.
Is
that
the
one
Bridge
option
is
the
most
efficient
and
cost
effective.
So
that
was
the
change
there.
The
independent
consultant
we
get
further
into
that.
AA
And
we've
been
in
several
meetings
attended
by
both
Town
and
County
Council,
some
members
here
and
Beaufort
County.
The
County's
been
pretty
clear
on
their
position
related
to
the
one
versus
two
Bridges,
and
so
this
isn't
a
surprise
to
see
this
as
a
term
in
the
recommendations
that
Council
supported
was
to
focus
on
the
design
elements,
as
it
relates
to
the
project
going
forward
with
with
special
attention
given
to
the
bridge,
and
so
I
think
that,
obviously,
that
recommendation
is
still
something
to
work
through
feasibility
and
options
for
implementation.
AA
AA
Sorry,
if,
if
some
folks
think
that
that's
what
it
needs
to
be,
we
cannot
Advance
the
the
project
without
coordination
and
communication
with
the
county
on
this
project
and
the
independent
portion,
as
outlined
in
the
correspondence
from
Senator
Davis
and
others,
was
that
they
couldn't
have
a
a
current
relationship
or
contract
with
scdot,
because
we
need
the
result
of
this.
The
consultant
selected
to
help
us
with
a
position
to
advance
options
for
improving
the
project
and
don't
want
to
have
that
conflict
with
a
consultant
that
has
that
relationship
with
DOT.
AA
So
it's
not
about
independence
from
the
town
and
the
County
independent
from
each
other.
So
the
town
said
we
would.
We
would
procure
and
retain
the
independent
consultant
to
do
the
end-to-end
analysis
as
outlined
in
that
scope
of
work
that
I
referenced
earlier
the
county.
Their
version
of
the
Moa
says
that
we
should
do
that
together.
I
think
that
we
should
the
town
should
procure
and
we'll
get
to
the
next
step,
with
coordination
on
the
county
and
we'll
talk
about
the
selection
committee.
AA
AB
And
on
that
one
too,
so
to
what
you
said
there
Sean
is:
if
we're
working
together
in
a
Cooperative
manner,
as
mentioned
in
in
the
prior
item,
then
then
this
is
something
that
we
work
together
with
too,
so
the
independence
is
independent
of
dot,
independent
of
County
independent
of
town
operations.
So
this
is.
AB
This
is
a
consultant
that
nobody
in
the
region
has
worked
with,
which
that'll
be
its
own
challenge,
find
that
consultant
and
attract
them
to
to
a
project
that
they're
not
even
on
their
radar,
so
we'll
work
through
that,
but
that
was
the
thought
process
there.
The
scratch
there
at
the
end,
as
far
as
the
scope
not
being
is
shown
in
exhibit
eight
that's
not
to
hide
the
scope
or
anything,
but
it's
further
down
in
the
Moa.
As
we
talk
about
is
the
staff
committee
would
coordinate.
AB
AB
Line
so
this
one
is
and-
and
this
point
that
we
can
discuss
whether
we
want
to
add
it
or
not,
but
in
the
spirit
of
being
independent
of
dot,
this
is
basically
taking
all
the
dot
data
that
has
been
done
and
worked
up
so
far
for
the
project
and
handing
that
to
the
independent
consultant
that
selected.
If
that's
comfortable
with
everybody,
then
we
can
definitely
leave
that
in
the
thought
process
behind
this
is,
if
we're
going
to
say
it's
truly
independent,
then
that
independent
firm
needs
to
also
create
their
own
data.
AB
However,
that
again
we're
we're
up
for
either
way.
In
my
opinion,
data
is
data,
so
I
don't
see
it
as
an
issue,
but
that
was
the
reasoning
behind
the
strike
is
if
we
want
them
to
go
to
get
their
own
traffic
counts,
that
will
take
longer
and
and
cost
more
money
and
traffic
counts
or
traffic
counts,
so
I,
again,
I'm
comfortable
and
the
county
is
comfortable
with
having
that
statement
stay
in
there.
But
that
was
the
reasoning.
If
we
want
it
to
be
independent,
then
they
can
they
can
obtain
their
own
data.
AA
And
in
the
the
draft
scope
of
work,
there
was
very
detailed
requirements
for
the
you
know
for
modeling
and
other
efforts
that
would
be
required
of
the
independent
consultant,
and
so
some
of
that
again
requires
some
data,
I
think
that
was
available
through
County
or
scdot,
but
the
methodology,
the
validation,
the
output,
will
be
drafted
and
generated
by
the
independent
consultant
to
generate
any
recommendations
that
would
impact
positively
impact
the
the
project,
and
so
that
was
kind
of
the
intent
there.
But
we
can
add
it.
AA
The
next
part,
the
the
town
MOA,
didn't
include
a
a
committee
to
help
to
select
or
over
have
oversight
over
the
over
the
consultant,
and
so
what
the
county
has
proposed,
that
the
Town
and
County
would
create
a
committee
and
under
the
way
it's
currently
written
from
the
county.
As
Miss
Prince
pointed
out,
there
are
three
members
identified
that
would
represent
the
county
and
two
at
the
town,
I
think
again
having
this
coordination
throughout
the
project.
It
makes
sense
to
have
participation.
AB
AA
AB
Conclude
and
I
can
explain
the
thought
behind
that
so
again
in
the
modify,
I
preferred
alternative.
That's
been
presented,
most
of
the
items
from
the
mksk,
the
the
monetary
items
have
been
Incorporated
to
the
the
one
bridge
is
the
is
the
only
thing
and
and
that's
actually
a
subtraction
versus
the
addition
of
cost
the
Meandering
on
Jenkins
Island.
AB
AA
Yes,
sir,
on
on
on
some
of
those
key
High
dollars,
the
difference
between
the
bridge,
one
versus
two
Bridges
and
then
the
the
Jenkins
Island
alignment
modification
that
went
forward
also
the
cost
of
the
the
respits
or
ball
bouts
for
lack
of
a
better
term
on
the
bridge
for
The,
Pedestrian
bike
and
pedestrian
path.
Yes,
sir,
that
was
part
of
that
that
was
presented
to
council
last
fall.
AA
AA
This
next
one
there's
I,
don't
know
why
it
shows
up
this
way.
The
only
addition
to
this
next
provision
was
that
the
county
added
and
lats,
which
makes
sense
there,
are
Regional
Metropolitan
planning
organization.
The
recommendation
for
this
Corridor
and
Bridge
has
been
in
the
long-range
Transportation
plan
since
2015,
and
so
adding
them
in
just
for
clarity
is
and.
AB
The
fabric
connectivity,
so
adaptive
signals
is
one
component,
but
it's
only
one
tool
in
the
toolbox.
Really
the
thing
that's
going
to
help
synchronize
that
entire
section
is
fiber.
So
having
that
quick
access
of
communication
between
the
signals
is
integral
so
again,
adaptive
signals
is
part
of
the
equation,
but
not
all
of
us
have
just
expanded
upon
that.
So.
AA
Number
seven
was
again
on
this
page
as
part
of
a
previous
one
and
then
the
final
one
as
part
of
the
agreement.
Both
we
didn't
have
a
provision
in
here.
This
is
what
the
county
is
included
as
their
last
as
part
of
this
agreement,
both
the
county
and
the
town
agree
to
move
the
project
forward
through
the
NEPA
process
and
I'm,
going
to
ask
Jared
to
explain
what
that
what
that
means.
AB
So
this
is
not
Municipal
consent,
so
NEPA,
where
we
are
at
the
current
process,
we're
in
the
preliminary
design
the
community
engagement,
the
impacts.
We
have
a
develop
package
ready
to
submit
our
close
ready
to
submit.
So
this
would
allow
the
the
project
to
move
forward
to
submit
the
Federal
Highway,
so
they
can
review
their
review
process
in
doing
this.
AB
The
this
does
not
stop.
The
independent
review.
The
Independent
review
could
work
concurrently
with
the
process
that
that
the
that
Federal
Highway
will
be
reviewing
and
then
Municipal
consent
comes
later
in
the
project
as
we
move
into
final
design
before
we
get
to
final
design,
usually
around
60
to
70
percent
design.
Plans
is
when
we
go
right
away
and
we
start
the
right-of-way
acquisition
process.
So
that's
when
Municipal
consent
would
be
required
before
we
start
reaching
out
to
landowners
and
addressing
Acquisitions.
That's
one
Municipal
consent.
N
AA
AB
About
a
week
and
a
half
ago,
I
had
to
go
to
Columbia
to
make
a
presentation
to
the
state
infrastructure
Bank
on
the
status
of
the
project.
For
the
most
part
that
status
update
went
well.
However,
I
did
get
beat
up
pretty
significantly
by
the
chairman
of
the
board
on
the
status
of
the
project
and
the
delays.
They
obviously
read
the
newspaper
and
get
their
updates
and
we
send
them
quarterly
updates,
but
they're
very
interested.
AB
So
they
have
numerous
other
projects
on
the
books
that
they're
ready
to
put
funds
to,
and
fortunately
dot
came
to
our
side
and
spoke
to
our
behalf
and
said:
hey
look:
we've
been
working
with
the
county
and
the
town
they're
doing
their
due
diligence,
we're
confident
that
they're
going
the
right
direction
and
and
and
that's
sufficed,
but
that
that's
from
the
county
standpoint.
That's
the
concern
is
obviously
there's
concern
in
Rising
costs
and
inflation.
AB
AB
J
I
Mayor
I
would
concur
with
what
Jared
just
said.
That's
consistent
with
the
conversations
I've
had
with
secretary
Hall
the
dot
in
the
comments
that
she
apparently
made
are
consistent
with
the
comments
she's
made
to
me.
She
understands
the
county
and
the
town
are
working
together.
She
understands
that
the
community
is
engaged
in
this
process.
She
understands
that
this
is
part
of
the
process
and
something
to
be
I
think
lauded
rather
than
criticized
I
mean
we
have
citizens
groups
involved.
We
have
organizations
concerned
about
the
environment
involved.
I
We
have
outside
Consultants
coming
in
to
make
the
product
better.
All
of
these
things
are
contemplated
to
occur
within
this
within
this
process,
and
so
what
secretary
Hall
has
said
to
me
is
that
the
critical
point
she's
looking
at
is:
when
can
she
request
the
record
of
decision
from
the
Corps
of
Engineers?
That's
that's
the
next
critical
step
on
the
path
for
her.
I
She
says
that
she
will
submit
that
record
request
for
a
record
of
decision
once
that
Delta
and
I
don't
have
my
notes
in
front
of
me,
but
it's
at
40
to
45
million
dollar
shortfall
between
dollars
in
hand
from
various
sources
and
the
updated
estimate
for
the
project,
which
was
good.
As
of
two
weeks
ago,
I
had
spoken
with
the
governor's
office
and
have
every
reason
to
believe
that
the
executive
budget
is
going
to
include
a
recommended
appropriation
for
that
Delta.
Once
that
executive
budget
is
issued
in
January.
I
I
I
I
think
that
ought
to
be
declaratively
stated
in
in
paragraph
8.
By
saying
this.
This
independent
study
is
the
last
thing
we're
going
to
do
this.
Is
the
data
set
we're
going
to
get
and
then
based
on
that
data,
set
we're
going
to
make
a
decision
when
I've
had
conversations
with
Eric
Greenway
the
County
Administrator?
That
was
what
he
said
to
me.
We
want
to
make
sure
that
this
process
is
going
to
come
to
a
conclusion
at
some
point.
I
How
are
we
going
to
be
assured
that
there
isn't
going
to
be
some
other
further
study
down
the
road
once
this
is
done
and
I
recommended?
What
you
say
is
in
this
MOA.
This
is
it.
This
data
is
going
to
put
us
in
a
position
to
give
a
either
yes
or
no
Municipal
consent
or
B,
yes
or
no
in
regard
to
the
EA
submitted
for
the
Fonzie
finding
and
and
I
think
that,
if
that's
the
intent
there
simply
declaratively
state
that
I
mean
I,
think
I
think
that
takes
care
of
that
issue.
I
The
other
material
thing
I
will
say,
is
the
scope
of
work
that
that
was
that
was
really
kind
of
specifically
worked
on
by
the
town
with
the
citizens
that
needs
to
be
incorporated
into
this
MOA,
because
it
provides
guidance
in
regard
to
how
you're
going
to
be
bid.
This
thing
out,
and
it
gives
instruction
to
the
independent
contractor
on
the
front
end
exactly
what's
expected,
just
some
vague
language
about
how
we're
going
to
agree
upon
that
at
some
point.
In
the
future,
I
mean
that's
not
necessary.
This
work
has
been
done.
I
So
what
I
want
to
encourage
this
Council?
To
do
I
mean
in
terms
of
of
a
constructive
path
forward
and
I
congratulate
the
county
for
for
engaging
on
this
I
think
it's
extremely
more
productive
than
simply
saying
we're
going
to
go
forward
and
bifurcate
the
project
which
I
think
invites
a
whole
host
of
other
problems
and
by
the
way
guarantees
you
lose
100
million
dollars
the
day
after
you
do
that
bifurcation,
the
120
million
dollars
is
gone.
I.
I
Tell
you
that
right
now,
this
isn't
going
to
do
that
this
isn't
going
to
jeopardize
under
20
million
dollars.
This
is
a
more
constructive
response
than
what
was
done
a
couple
weeks
ago
when
they
said
they
said
we're
going
to
bifurcate.
I
would
send
this
back
with
incorporate
with
all
the
changes
that
that
Sean
has
gone
through
and
that
Jared
has
gone
through
I
think
most
of
them
are
stylistic
I.
Think
some
of
them
are
great.
It's
fine,
but
but
from
my
standpoint
there
are
two
material
things
that
I
think
need
to
be
done.
I
Think
it's
premature.
The
reason
you're
having
this
independent
consultant
engaged
to
bring
data
is
to
make
informed
decisions
in
regard
to
those
two
things
and
to
the
extent
that
you
do
it
now
and
then
say
well,
we
can
then
do
the
independent
review
too.
Well,
then,
to
what
purpose
are
you
doing?
Okay,
so
so
I
I
I
I
mean
this
is
a
long
answer
to
a
simple
question:
Mr
Mayor.
But
what
secretary
Hall
apparently
said
yesterday
that
sip
is
the
same
thing.
I
She's
been
saying
to
me:
we
realize
that
you
guys
are
doing
your
due
diligence.
We
realize
that
the
county
and
the
town
are
talking
back
and
forth
with
each
other.
We
hope
they
come
together
and
and
be
unified
and
I
hope.
That's
where
we
end
up
being
on
this
I
mean
I,
don't
want
two.
You
know
different
local
government
bodies
that
odds
over
this.
A
lot
of
progress
has
been
made
here
and
I
give
credit
to
Sean
and
the
Jared
for
for
getting
us.
There
I
think
you've
got
good
work
product
here.
I
I
Good
one
of
the
reforms
that
came
about
three
years
ago
or
four
years
ago
when
we
increased
the
the
gas
tax
and
one
of
the
things
that
I
pushed
for
when
I
oppose
the
increase
in
that
gas
tax,
was
that
the
state
infrastructure
bank
and
the
dot
integrate
their
Capital
Improvement
projects
plans
and
have
the
same
objectives
and
the
same
criteria.
They
have
an
extremely
good
working
relationship.
Both
chairman
white
and
secretary
Hall
have
an
extraordinarily
good
relationship
and
I
can
tell
you
this
I'll
make
this
representation
and
put
my
credibility
on
the
line.
I
If
the
town
and
the
county
reach
a
memorandum
of
agreement
along
the
lines
that
I've
suggested,
and
you
sign
that
and
that's
delivered
to
the
sieve
and
delivered
to
the
dot
they're
not
going
to
see
an
area
in
disarray,
they're
going
to
see
a
community,
that's
United,
they're,
going
to
see
a
community,
that's
come
to
to
an
agreement
in
regard
to
what
due
diligence
looks
like
and
that
120
million
dollars
is
not
going
to
be
jeopardized.
Okay
I'll
make
that
representation
to
you,
because
that
is
consistent.
I
What
I
I've
been
keeping
secretary
Hall
abreast
of
this
last
two
two
years
now
I
do
expect
some
frustration.
I
mean
this
particular
conversation.
We're
having
now
ought
to
have
taken
place
last
May
or
last
June.
That's
water
under
the
bridge.
That's
fine,
but
I,
think
you're
at
a
point
now,
where
you
can
bring
this
thing
in,
for
a
landing
you're
able
to
demonstrate
you'll
be
able
to
demonstrate
to
both
Sid
and
the
dot
that
yes,
the
town
and
the
county
have
now
agreed
to
the
critical
path
forward.
N
AB
Q
AC
AB
AB
That
yeah
I
think
the
Moa
gets
to
stay.
Obviously,
it's
not
written
explicitly
doesn't
get
in
the
Landscaping,
but
this
is
not
a
one
and
done
relationship
a
one-and-done
project
we're
going
to
continue
to
work
together
as
staff
and
at
Council
levels
throughout
the
entirety
of
the
project.
Also,
what
we
talked
about
in
this
reference
has
mksk
we're
going
to
work
on
the
feasibility
of
funding
so
say
if
we
have
a
difference
initially
of
opinion
of
what
that
Landscaping
looks
like
well
we're
going
to
work
together
and
find
a
happy
medium.
AB
N
Just
one
last
item
and
again
I
emphasize
trust,
is
so
important
and
we
have
a
lack
of
trust
by
a
segment
of
the
population
regarding
data
and
Senator.
Davis
has
interceded
to
provide
a
way
for
that
for
data
to
be
given
in
an
independent
from
an
independent
source.
So
just
just
that
we
don't
find
ourselves
in
the
same
place
down
the
road.
Z
AD
M
I
have
no
reason
to
believe
I've
said
this
before
I
have
no
reason
to
believe
that
scdot
wouldn't
build
a
corridor
with
the
community's
best
interest
in
mind.
In
my
judgment,
the
last
two
projects
anywhere
close
to
the
scope
were
the
Cross
Island
and
the
flyover
and,
in
my
opinion,
dot
is
two
for
two
and
I
think
there
are
going
to
be
three
for
three,
especially
in
lieu
of
what
this
process
is
telling
us
as
I
go
back
through
the
proposed
agreement.
M
I
I
think
the
scope
of
work
needs
to
be
a
part
of
that,
and
that
was
one
of
the
concerns
that
I
had
I.
Don't
for
a
minute.
Jared
forget
that
the
applicant
and
the
IGA
is
with
the
county.
The
IGA
between
the
state
and
the
county
makes
no
mention
whatsoever
of
the
town,
so
I
recognize
that
much
of
the
management
of
this
project
ongoing
is
going
to
fall
on
your
shoulders
and
I'm
certain
that
we
will
trust
the
relationship
that
we
currently
have
with
you
to
provide
input
as
as
needed.
M
I
am
absolutely
okay
with
the
idea
of
one
bridge
I,
never
for
a
minute
thought.
The
independent
meant
anything
other
than
independent
of
a
relationship
with
the
state
and
the
county,
and
the
town
I
think
I
know
what
the
answer
to
do.
You
want
new
data,
or
will
you
trust
the
existing
data
will
be
and
I
I
think
I
need
not
say
anything
more
than
that.
I.
Think
your
suggestion
of
three
and
three
on
that
committee
is
a
good
one
and
adding
lats
into
the
equation
absolutely
makes
sense.
M
And
for
the
first
time,
Jared
I
understand
now
where
the
municipal
consent,
which
is
really
our
leverage
to
this
project,
comes
in
and
it
comes
in
pretty
far
down
the
process
at
the
time
we're
looking
for
right-of-ways
and
land
acquisition,
so
I
am
comfortable
with
holding
that
in
advance,
while
this
independent
review
and,
more
importantly,
the
analysis
of
what
we
find
from
that
review
tells
us
I'm
prepared
to
move
forward.
John
David.
N
N
L
L
AB
AB
L
AB
L
L
It
talks
about
safety
and
it
strikes
through
impacts
and
I.
Don't
think
that's
fair,
because
the
weight
of
this
being
presented,
you
can't
have
the
safety
that
we
want
to
enjoy
without
impacts
being
associated,
and
that
has
to
come
to
a
head
I'm
sure
that
the
county
has
not
gotten
to
a
point
where
they
fully
understand.
What
happens
if
a
full-fledged
environmental
impact
statement
is
issued?
Well,
if,
if
that
comes
about,
we
got
to
deal
with
it
right
now,
we're
running
from
it
and
I
think
equally,
we
need
to
be
prepared
to
deal
with
that.
L
I
agree
that
the
scope
of
work
as
far
as
the
independent
review
should
be
included.
If
not,
where
are
we
going?
I
also
agree
that
we
need
to
have
equal
representation
on
that
selection,
board
and
oversight
board
at
the
end
of
the
day
and
by
the
way
for
the
Public's
knowledge.
The
document
that
we're
viewing
here
today
is
not
the
document
that
was
in
our
packet
right,
so.
L
I
think
that
there
needs
to
be
some
time
for
us
to
really
digest
and
process
this,
but
all
in
the
spirit
of
us
working
together,
collectively
I
think
we
have
gotten
so
far
from
where
we
started,
where
we
weren't
even
able
to
talk
to
each
other.
We've
gotten
further,
all
right,
but
let's
not
lose
the
moment.
Okay,
because
there
is
time
and
opportunity
for
us
to
improve
the
situation
so
again,
I
think
particularly
y'all's
two
efforts,
okay
and
for
the
politicians,
let's
continue
to
work
together
versus
against
one
another.
In
this
project,
foreign.
J
J
Excuse
me
I'm,
very
pleased
to
see
a
significant
County
principle
here
before
us
in
a
Cooperative
Spirit
working
together
with
us,
as
Senator
Davis
said
you
know,
I'm
paraphrasing,
but
I.
Think
if
we
had
done
that
a
long
time
ago,
we
would
be
much
further
ahead
than
we
are
today,
but
that's
water
under
the
under
the
dam,
but
the
in
terms
of
the
independent
consultant,
I
totally
support
I.
Think
that's
going
to
add
value
to
the
ultimate
product
I'd
like
to
have
Clarity
of
language
to
as
to
whom
that
party
reports
to.
J
On
any
language
cleanup,
please
please
make
sure
that
it's
there
I
like
moving
to
balance
on
the
committee.
The
3-3
makes
a
lot
of
sense.
I,
don't
know
why
an
alternative
was
Advanced
but
should
be
removed.
The
inclusion
of
lats
makes
sense.
The
I
think
the
I'm
prepared
to
support
the
the
changes
that
you
and
Sean
have
advanced
I
think
they
make
sense.
We
have
a
better
document
for
that.
J
E
First,
I
want
to
say
that
what
I
did
have
in
my
packet
may
not
be.
The
same
thing
may
not
be
the
same
thing.
However,
what
I
did
have
to
read
was
not
legible,
I
wear
glasses
to
read
and
I
find
stronger
ones
around
to
read,
and
there
was
no
chance
that
that
was
going
to
be
able
to
read
and
to
make
sense
of
this.
E
One
of
the
things
that
you
might
notice,
as
I
mentioned
residents,
is
that
these
rooms,
both
County
and
here
in
Hilton
Head,
are
never
filled
with
people
who
are
standing
up
saying
we
want
this
bridge,
in
fact,
just
the
opposite.
Ten
thousand
thereabouts
people
who
have
said
adamantly
take
your
time.
Do
it
right
make
sure
that
what
happens
when
it
happens
is
in
the
best
interest
of
the
residents
of
Hilton,
Head
Island.
E
I
understand
the
frustration
of
some
who
may
want
to
see
get
this
done,
but
as
the
residence
advocate
here,
I'm
going
to
stand
in
the
way
of
that
and
I'm
going
to
ask
my
council
members
to
be
reasonable
and
and
do
the
same
thing
as
we
look
to
the
end-to-end
study,
which
will
inform
us
about
what
it
is.
We're
actually
doing.
You
heard
from
Jesse
that
the
NEPA
process,
without
having
a
sense
of
what
we're
actually
doing
is
is
meaningless.
In
fact,
may
have
to
be
done
again.
E
E
It
was
difficult
for
me
at
that
moment,
because
two
men
that
I
respect
were
giving
me
two
different
Impressions
about
what's
happening
with
regard
to
the
bridge.
We
talk
about
the
bridge
and
we
see
six
Lanes
12
Lane
12
feet
each
four
breakdown,
Lanes
10
feet
each
and
a
side
piece
for
bike
and
ped,
which
is
12
14
whatever.
E
That
we've
long
talked
about
as
being
part
of
the
solution
to
the
traffic
on
over
the
bridge
coming
onto
278
and
in
fact,
to
our
Workforce
and
we've
refused
to
add
that
in
as
a
com
meaningful
component-
and
it
is
so
that
should
be
included
in
the
scope
of
work.
We
should
identify
how
that
Transportation.
Some
other
Transportation
option
on
the
other
side
of
the
bridge
would
impact
the
necessity
of
130
thereabouts
feet
of
concrete.
E
I'm
told
in
that
conversation
by
another
member
that
in
no
uncertain
terms
that
this
is
a
federal
mandate,
we
must
have
11
Lanes
coming
across
this
bridge
period.
Over
and
over
and
over
again
I
said:
okay
I
buy
that
oh
you're,
saying
it
I
believe
you,
but
what
I
want
is
I
want
to
see
something
from
the
federal
government
telling
me
exactly
that
you
have.
It
apparently
give
it
to
me.
I
asked
for
that
information.
E
A
week
and
a
half
ago
now,
I've
followed
up
two
times.
I
have
nothing
so
until
I
get
that
the
person
telling
me
that
we
must
have
an
11
lane
bridge
has
no
basis
for
demanding
that
of
the
citizens
and
the
residents
of
Hilton
Head
Island
and
asking
me
as
a
council
member
who
represents
you
represents
you
to
take
action
for
that.
So
give
it
to
me
it's
a
simple
request:
I
ask
for
information,
I
want
it.
I
always
have,
and
I
will
continue
to
want
the
information
that
makes
my
decisions
here.
E
100,
a
hundred
percent
in
this
document
such
that
you've
outlined
it
and
thank
you
for
doing
that
and
I've
followed
it
and
I've
taken
notes,
but
a
hundred
percent
in
there
is
an
implicit
consent
from
the
town
of
Hilton
Head
to
the
county,
not
giving
it
until
we
get
the
information,
a
the
federal
information
I
asked
for,
or
the
information
with
regard
to
the
end
to
end
scope
of
work.
Until
that's
done,
there's
nowhere
that
we
can
go,
the
money
is
safe.
E
E
E
We
have
a
working
committee
who
has
put
more
effort
into
this
to
try
to
bring
it
to
where
it
is
today
and
without
them,
and
without
the
efforts
of
Senator
Davis
and
without
a
lot
of
my
hard
work.
We
wouldn't
have
this
discussion
here
today.
I
expect
this
committee
to
be
like
every
other
committee
and
to
have
residents
who
have
worked
that
hard
on
that
committee,
that
five
person
six
person,
seven
person
committee
I,
don't
care
about
the
number
but
I
want
our
citizens
sitting
there.
E
E
For
all
of
these
reasons,
and
many
more
that
I
could
go
on
about,
but
I
think
I've
made
my
point.
This
is
not
the
right
time
for
us
to
be
making
a
decision.
I
want
to
see
something
that
isn't
all
marked
up.
That
I
can
read
clearly
that
I
can
analyze
and
that
I
can
digest
before
there
can
be
any
decision
made,
and
it
needs
to
incorporate
the
things
that
we've
talked
about
here
and
keep
in
mind.
K
K
That's
gone
into
this
Senator
Davis's
input
into
this
has
been
what
has
saved
this
project
as
I
see
it
I
think
that
if
we
were
continued
having
more
and
more
and
more
and
more
studies,
the
sib
would
indeed
have
pulled
the
money,
but
no
he's
protecting
us
on
that
now,
I,
remember
I,
don't
know
it
was
three
years
ago
or
four
years
ago
we
had
a
tax.
We
had
a
penny
tax
that
was
passed
and
the
citizens
resoundingly
approved
that
that
Penny
tax
was
going
to
not
a
bridge
but
a
card
a
project.
K
K
I,
sincerely
regret
and
I
can't
explain
why
it
has
taken
months
and
months
to
get
to
this
point,
but
it
has,
and
it's
Sinister
Davis
said:
that's
that's
water
under
the
bridge.
Now
we
need
to
move
forward
with
this.
That
being
said,
I'm
not
prepared
to
vote
to
approve
or
to
deny
this
agreement
tonight.
I
will
be
after
an
opportunity
to
review
the
document.
Now
that
we
have
this
input
and
I'll
be
prepared
to
do
that.
At
the
next
council
meeting,
however,
the
mayor
and
the
town
manager
may
move
that
forward.
K
I
regret
the
concept.
The
deletion
of
the
concept
that
it
was
a
partnership
should
have
been
a
partnership.
It
should
have
been
treated
as
a
partnership.
I
understand
that
the
county
is
the
lead
applicant
for
this
I
understand
that,
but
that
doesn't
mean
that
the
county,
that
the
town
can't
be
a
partner
in
that
I'm
willing
to
accept
the
agreement
that
the
Cooperative,
the
change
to
that
I,
am
not
willing
to
accept
60
percent
of
the
members
of
the
committee
being
from
the
county
and
40
percent
being
from
the
town.
K
K
The
submission
for
for
approval
to
the
Federal
Highway
now
makes
no
sense
to
me
whatsoever
because
it
is
likely
that
the
project
will
change
in
some
way
as
a
result
of
the
independent
review,
and
so
as
soon
as
we
do
that
we
have
to
go
back
to
the
federal
government
and
seek
another
review.
This
shouldn't
be
submitted
until
we
have
the
project
finalized.
K
K
This
agreement
shall
not
be
deemed
Municipal
consent
by
the
town
of
Hilton
Head
Island,
with
those
terms
in
there
and
with
those
Concepts
Incorporated
in
there.
I
am
willing
to
accept
one
Bridge.
I
say
that
hesitantly,
because
I
don't
want
one
bridge.
I
want
two
Bridges
I
think
it
would
still
be
better
than
what
we.
What
we're
going
to
have,
but
I
understand
that
that
the
bridges
are
not
within
the
town
limits
of
Hilton
Head
Island.
So
we
don't
have
much
jurisdiction
over
that
and
so
I'm
willing
to
accept
that
as
a
concept.
K
AE
AE
The
council
has
had
plenty
of
time
to
improve
traffic
managed
on
the
island,
from
which
we
would
have
gathered
much
more
valuable,
informative
information
for
the
scdot
okay.
If
I
look
at
the
revised
mou,
it
didn't
help
that
I
had
to
work
out
my
own
underlined
comparison.
My
wife
was
not
very
happy
about
it.
AE
AE
AE
The
Joe
patterman
personal
statement
was
a
literary
failure
and
full
of
factual
errors
and
its
Bonkers
to
suggest
that
South
Carolina
would
jeopardize
Public
Safety
or
the
economic
Dynamic
future
of
Hilton
Head
Island
and
an
election
year
McMaster
would
jeopardize
32
percent,
who
left
it
of
the
electrical
and
Hillary
not
supporting
them.
It's
nonsense.
You'd
be
absolutely
Bonkers
to
sign
this
thing
off
you're
going
to
reduce
yourselves
to
a
vassal.
AE
AC
Hi,
my
name
is
Terry
Johnson
and
I
am
here
on
behalf
of
Tom
Cleary,
who
is
doing
her,
has
declared
mayor
of
candidate
for
mayor
of
Hilton
Head
on
behalf
of
Tom
Cleary,
who
is
a
candidate
for
mayor
of
Hilton
Head
Island
I
urge
the
Hilton
Head
Island
Town
Council
to
not
sign
the
Moa
with
Beaufort
County,
which
would
provide
hhi
Municipal
consent
for
the
278
Corridor
project.
My
entire
career
has
been
about
solving
problems,
understanding.
The
actual
problem
is
an
underappreciated
task
and
a
successful
problem-solving
outcome.
AC
My
thanks
to
Senator
Tom
Davis,
who
has
secured
funding
for
an
independent
Transportation
review
that
will
tell
Islanders
the
actual
problem.
I
support
this
as
the
next
step
as
mayor.
Maintaining
improving
the
quality
of
life
for
current
Islanders,
while
protecting
our
natural
environment
is
priority
number
one.
Any
growth
should
be
via
smarter
uses
of
existing
infrastructure
and
Island
resources,
not
via
the
traditional
growth
approach
by
adding
Road
roads
and
Resorts
that
fill
our
Island
roads
to
capacity
as
a
town,
exhaustion
of
smarter
Solutions
takes
precedence
over
new
capacity
Solutions.
AC
B
G
I'm
going
to
be
very
brief,
like
Christopher,
my
wife
is
also
tired
of
this
for
about
the
same
period
of
time.
I
want
to
get
this
thing
done
as
rapidly
as
possible.
I
want
and
representing
the
almost
10
000
people
on
our
petition.
We
want
to
get
this
done
as
rapidly
as
possible.
We've
rolled
up
our
sleeves
for
years
helping
write
the
statement
of
work,
helping
review
documents
draw
Maps.
We
wanted
Gunners
rapidly
as
possible
and
I
agree
with
councilwoman
Becker's
comment.
Citizens
have
to
be
part
of
that
Review
Committee.
G
We
don't
want
to
stop
the
project.
We
want
it
to
go
as
rapidly
as
possible.
We
want
to
understand
the
impacts
we
want
to
move
it
along.
We
don't
want
to
come
here
with
a
document
that
no
one
has
seen
and
no
one
can
read
and
expect
an
MOA
this
evening,
because
the
version
we
received
in
the
mail
for
the
town
council
meeting
said
Municipal
consent.
It
was
item.
Eight
County
expects
some
Municipal
consent.
G
I
make
one
other
suggestion
when
the
revised
document
is
put
together
by
Sean
and
Jared
before
it
comes
here,
send
a
copy
to
us
send
a
copy
to
the
citizens,
so
we
can
spot
the
real
problems
that
will
occur
before
they
occur
here.
It'll
be
really
nice.
If,
at
the
next
meeting,
it'll
be
nice,
if,
at
the
next
meeting
our
10
000
or
almost
10
000
person,
petition
group
could
vote
with
you
for
it,
we
don't
want
to
fight
anymore.
G
V
We
all
saw
that
marked
up
document.
What
struck
me
more
than
anything
else
was
the
Sea
of
red,
the
Sea
of
red,
that
crossed
out
virtually
everything
that
was
written
in
the
Moa
authored
by
the
town
and
one
of
the
ones.
That's
particular
that
I
couldn't
believe
that
particularly
jumped
out
at
Mavis.
There
was
a
crossout
of
an
entire
paragraph
that
entire
paragraph
happened
to
be
the
proposal
to
hire
an
independent
traffic
engineering
consultant
firm.
So
that
tells
me
what
what
County
Council
is
really
all
about.
They
don't
want
to
study.
V
We
need
the
study
so
when
we,
when
we,
when
you
guys,
go
and
Tammy
go
over
this,
be
mindful
that
we
need
to
retain
this.
Like
Tammy
said
this
is
our
Island.
We
need
to
retain
an
MOA
that
has
as
its
as
its
core
the
best
interests
of
Hilton,
Head,
Island
and
I
just
want
to
make
one
more
quick
Point.
What
we're
looking
for.
We
keep
talking
about
the
the
results
of
the
independent
traffic
engineering
Consulting
study,
but
I
just
want
to
point
out
that
we're
not
just
looking
for
data.
V
You
know
confirmation
whatever
what
we're
hiring
and
what
we
want
to
get
our
monies
worth
from
this
independent
consultant
is,
as
I
said
before,
we
want
their
independent
and
objective
recommendations
as
to
how
to
best
solve
what
originally
was
a
major
factor
in
in
this
whole
Quest,
and
that
is
how
to
solve
our
Peak
traffic
flow
problems
on
Hilton
Head.
So
thank
you.
T
I
didn't
have
much
High
expectation
for
this
meeting
and
I
must
say
that
I'm
amazed
and
encouraged
by
the
questions
that
you
raised
of
the
the
county
folks
here
today
and
responsive
to
the
public
and
to
those
nearly
10
000
people,
including
myself,
who
did
sign
that
petition.
So
thank
you
very
much.
T
AF
My
name
is
Angie
Hutchins
and
I
wanted
to
thank
all
of
you
for
advocating
for
the
independent
review
at
this
point,
particularly
councilwoman,
Becker,
gray,
Smith,
Diedrich
and,
of
course,
Steve
bear
for
really
pushing
through
to
represent
the
island.
Well,
I
can't
understand,
though,
how
as
councilman
Brown
so
adequate
eloquently
said
we
suffer
the
losses.
AF
We
suffer
the
negative
effects
if
we
aren't
adequately
represented
on
the
advisory
committee
and
I,
can't
understand
why
we
wouldn't
be
in
the
majority
in
order
to
have
an
odd
number,
since
we
will
bear
the
brunt
of
any
negative
effects
of
the
bridge.
Beaufort
County
will
not.
We
both
have
some
definite
positives
in
there,
but
if
we're
going
to
suffer
the
negatives,
we
should
have
the
most
representation.
Thank
you,
foreign.
AG
Sure
my
name
is
Linda
Harrington
I
live
in
Indigo
and
I
have
a
simple
question:
why?
Why
are
we
at
this
point?
Why
is
it
taken
all
these
years
and
what
is
the
problem
with
an
Indus
independent
study?
It
would
have
been
done
by
now.
Had
we
done
it
three
or
four
years
ago
now
we're
in
a
position
where
costs
are
rising,
interest
rates
are
everything's
Rising
and
still
the
county
wants
to
style
me.
This.
It
makes
no
sense.
AG
Q
It's
not
just
the
bridge.
It's
getting
here
from
my
95
going
through
Hardeeville
Bluffton.
It's
just
approved
500
here
300
here
it
just
never
ends.
You've
got
one
road,
one
bridge
to
I-95,
so
you've
got
to
get
here
and
you've
got
to
go
through
all
that,
it's
just
it
it
just
never
stops.
We
got
to
figure
out
the
root
problem
and
the
root
problem
is
that
we've
over
developed
we've
gone
too
far
for
the
infrastructure
that
we
have
we've
just
completely
almost
annihilated
and
destroyed
the
very
reason
we
all
moved
here.
Q
We've
got
to
do
something.
We
we've
never
had
a
master
land
plan,
Mr
Harkins
when
I
heard
him
tell
me
that
I
think
it
was
last
year
that
you
brought
that
up
I.
Could
we
have
gated
when
they're
built
out
they're
and
if
you
want
any
and
there's
nothing
there,
you're
going
to
have
to
pay
more
money
to
get
in
that's
just
the
way
it
is
an
island
is
so
sensitive,
it's
so
vulnerable.
You
can't
just
be
everything
from
everybody
and
just
unlimited
and
the
right.
Q
B
AH
I
would
like
my
name
for
the
record,
is
Thomas
C
Barnwell
Jr
I
have
a
question,
but
I
have
one
two
three
four
things
to
say.
My
first
thing
is
my
there's.
A
question:
could
I
see
the
hands
go
up
in
the
air
of
how
many
of
us
in
this
room
today
have
lived
on
this
island
without
a
bridge
at
all?
Could
I
see
the
show
of
hands.
AH
Please
consider
two
Bridges.
My
reason
is:
I
live
through
the
experience
when
the
swing
Bridge
was
in
existence
and
the
Spring
Bridge
was
hit
by
a
barge
and
it
went
out.
It
created
major
transportation
problems
for
Hilton
Head,
okay,
considering
climate
change,
whatever
it
is,
and
I'll
go
quick
I'm.
Looking
at
the
clock
59
seconds,
we
might
have
that
condition,
a
situation
to
happen
again.
AH
I
In
my
private
sector,
life
I'm
a
mediator,
okay
I
do
that
I.
Do
that
too,
and
and
in
mediation
usually
involves
two
parties
coming
together,
it's
difficult
when
you
have
a
town
and
a
county
because
they
each
have
meeting
cycles,
and
so
you
you
you're
constrained
by
that-
and
let
me
just
make
this
observation.
I
I
In
response
to
that,
I
think
there's
going
to
be
a
missed
opportunity
for
continuing
dialogue.
If,
if
no
action
is
taken
tonight
and
you
simply
defer,
what's
the
county
then
going
to
do,
the
county
is
simply
then
going
to
go
ahead
and
reaffirm
what
it's
already
sent
to
you
and
so
we're
then
another.
You
know
cycle
down
the
road
look.
I
The
agreement
that
the
county
is
sent
over
was
flawed
and
all
the
respects
that
you
guys
have
talked
about,
but
my
sitting
back
there
listening
I
think
there's
broad
consensus
on
how
to
bring
it
back
in
align
with
what
you
guys
voted
on
and
approved
30
days
ago.
How
long
ago
it
was
so
I
just
make
those
observations,
because
it's
so
cumbersome
a
process
and
dealing
with
two
local
governments
back
and
forth.
I
It
protracts
things,
and
although
I
am
confident
that,
if
there
is
an
agreement
that
is
struck
by
the
town
of
the
county
and
I,
think
that
there's
grounds
for
an
agreement
here
that
the
process
can
move
forward
and
we
can
get
the
data
that
we
need.
You
guys
will
be
in
a
position
to
decide
on
on
what
to
do
and
that
that
is
in
hand.
I
What's
happened
so
far,
it
is
not
at
risk
okay,
but
when
you
have
an
opportunity
like
this,
when
everybody
is
engaged
and
you're
hearing
from
the
public
and
we're
hearing
from
excellent
staff
and
you're
in
a
position
to
make
a
decision,
let's
take
some
time,
make
a
decision
and
and
go
ahead
and
amend
the
agreement.
If
you
want
to
as
I
agree,
you
should
in
all
the
respects
that
have
been
discussed
and
give
it
back
to
the
county.
I
Okay
and
then
let
me
do
my
job
as
a
facilitator
to
appear
before
County
Council
next
Monday
and
make
the
arguments
as
to
why
they
should
accept
what
you
send
them,
but
but
I
think
we
lose
precious
time,
Without
Really
gaining
much
in
return.
If
no
action
is
taken
tonight
and
I
say
that
with
respect,
because
I
know
how
frustrating
it
is
Ms
Becker
to
get
packet
to
sit
down
and
do
your
homework
to
be
ready
to
discuss
it
and
all
of
a
sudden,
you
find
out
that
there's
something
completely
different.
I
get
that.
I
But
I
think
that
the
couple
hours
that
we've
spent
going
through
this
and
with
with
staff
excellent
laying
out
we've
identified
the
areas
that
need
to
be
changed.
We
do
need
to
have
the
scope
of
work
Incorporated.
We
do
need
to
have
equal
Town
representation
on
that
oversight
committee.
We
do
need
to
have
citizen
involvement.
We
do
need
to
withhold
any
sort
of
Municipal
consents
both
in
regard
to
the
the
final
consent
on
the
modified
referral
alternative,
but
also
in
regard
to
the
environmental
assessment
in
the
neighbor
process.
I
Until
you
have
that
study
done,
I
think
there's
an
opportunity
to
go
ahead
and
declaratively
say.
As
Mr
Stanford
said,
this
is
it.
This
is
the
last
set
of
data
we're
going
to
be
requesting
we're
going
to
make
a
decision
that
lends
some
finality
to
this
process
without
any
anyway
constraining
your
options
and
so
I
I.
Would
that's
my
observation.
You
asked
me
for
my
observation:
Mr
Mayor,
that's
my
observation.
I,
don't
think
the
parties
are
as
far
apart
here
as
it
may
seem.
Simply
looking
at
Redline
text.
W
Thank
you,
Mr
Mayor,
Sue,
Rodman,
County,
Council,
council
members.
Your
account
manager
good
to
be
with
you
a
couple
of
comments.
I
I
agree
with
a
lot
of
what
was
said
today
that
this
has
been
a
long,
long
process
that
we've
gone
through,
we're
all
tired.
We
need
to
have
closure
for
all
the
reasons
that
have
been
discussed
from
my
perspective
and
I
think
the
County's
perspective,
we're
in
total
agreement
have
been
forever
on
the
Adaptive
controls
and
if
they
all
want
to
even
accelerate
a
separate
IGA
we'd,
be
happy
to
happy
to
do
that.
W
I
think
we've
always
been
in
favor
I
had
no
opposition
from
doing
the
in
the
second
independent
review
that
I'm,
aware
of,
and
so
I
do
believe
that
that
should
go
forward.
There's
a
couple
things
I'd
love
to
see
included
in
that
one
is:
there's
been
a
lot
of
community
concern
about
whether
we
have
the
right
growth
rate,
which
drives
a
lot
of
the
concerns
that
we
have
and
I
think
that's
something
that
needs
to
be
finely
dressed
because
one
hand
we're
looking
at
tremendous
growth
numbers.
W
On
the
other
hand,
I
think
we
all
recognize
the
islands
pretty
close
to
to
build
out.
Secondly,
with
lats
involved,
there
is
a
difference
between
the
last
long-range
plan
in
Stony,
which
has
two
parallel
access.
Roads
and
the
preferred
alternatives
on
the
table
will
be
good
to
bring
closure
on
on
those
two
things
now,
I
think
my
concern-
and
maybe
our
concern
is
the
inflationary
period
that
we're
in
you
know,
we've
we've
seen
in
the
since
last
April.
The
cost
projection
for
the
project
has
gone
up,
30
or
40
million
bucks.
W
We
made
some
calculations
in
the
past
right
or
wrong,
but
it's
five
or
six
million
dollars
a
month
for
every
month
that
we
DeLay
So
I.
Think
the
one
thing
that
I
would
say
is
that
we
we
shouldn't
hamstring,
the
Secretary
of
Transportation
when
we're
all
in
agreement
that
they
could
go
forward
with
the
environmental
assessment,
because
if
we
end
up
delaying
that
too
long,
then
we're
just
adding
millions
and
million
dollars
to
the
to
the
cost.
W
Now
we
did
take
it
up
at
public
facilities
yesterday
and
we
voted
with
the
understanding
that
there
would
be
probably
some
very
good
comments
coming
out
of
your
meeting
tonight
and
we're
prepared
to
roll
all
of
those
in
certainly
the
the
balance
of
the
six,
and
there
were
several
others
that
were
mentioned.
I
didn't
hear
any
that
that
we
really
had
an
exception
to.
W
I
do
believe
that
it's
important,
if
you
think
about
the
project
in
the
design
and
everything
else,
the
bridge
piece
is
where
the
primary
cost
is,
and
that's
the
really
long
lead
pieces,
so
that
piece
needs
to
continue
at
the
same
time
as
the
independent
review
is
going
on
and
they'll
come
together
at
the
end
of
the
project.
So
we
we
don't
want
to
delay
that
portion
of
it.
W
How,
however,
we
we
do
it
I
I
do
believe
that
what
we're
all
talking
about
and
honors
what
Senator
Davis
has
put
forward,
and
we
owe
them
a
great
deal
of
gratitude
for
what
he
has
accomplished
in
in
leading
all
of
this.
So
what
I
see
from
our
perspective
is
that
in
the
next
day,
or
so,
we
will
be
digesting
what
you
all
talked
about,
folding,
that
into
what
we're
probably
going
to
talk
about
on
Monday.
W
Coordinating
that
with
you
back
through
your
your
staff,
and
hopefully
we
end
up
with
a
high
percentage
of
those
things
that
are
resolved.
I
would
even
go
so
far
as
to
say
on
the
independent
review.
I
think
it's
immaterial
to
us,
whether
we
do
it
together
or
whether
you
all
take
it
on
as
a
as
a
town,
we're
obviously
going
to
cooperate
a
lot
of
the
data
you
couldn't
get
elsewhere.
So
data
as
data
has
been
said,
but
I
don't
think
we
would
object
if
you
all
wanted
to
to
do
that
in
your
own.
W
AI
Hi
mayor
hi
Council,
my
name
is
Sheldon
Lee.
Shame
on
me.
This
is
my
first
time
actually
listening
to
the
debates
on
the
corridor
project
seems
like
councilman
Rodman
seems
like
we
have
three
things
so
all
I
hope
the
county
and
Dia
the
town
have
in
common
number
one
is
we
care
about
the
safety
of
the
bridge,
which
is
a
necessity
that
we
at
least
prepare
all
the
damages
from
Hurricane
Matthew?
AI
Clearly,
we
need
to
solve
the
traffic
issue,
and
the
third
thing
I
think
we
all
agree
on
is
on
the
environment,
the
impact
and
the
image
when
people
come
to
see
Hilton,
Head,
Island,
so
I
think
that
we
at
least
Town
and
County
share
theirs
in
common.
However,
I
think
the
only
difference
or
two
differences,
the
first
one
is
the
County's
concern.
AI
If
they
understand
that
we
all
are
going
to
work
in
good
faith
to
resolve
this
issue
and
with
the
support
of
Senator
Davis
I,
assume
that
if
we
get
the
timetable
to
say
we
have
within
maybe
10
or
11
months,
we're
going
to
resolve
that
I
think
that
the
state
and
the
federal
money
should
be
there.
I,
don't
see
why
we
can't
just
have
a
phone
call,
a
zoom
call
or
whatever
go
up
to
Columbia,
to
have
all
parties
set
together
to
resolve
the
issue,
whether
the
money
is
there
or
not.
The
second
one.
AI
That's
where
I
have
a
question
for
the
County
Council
is,
if
we
don't
have
the
end-to-end
study
understanding.
What
is
the
disaster
is
necessary
to
cure
the
problems
that
we
concerned
with
safety
traffic?
How
do
we
know
how
much
money
we're
going
to
incur
and
what's
the
inflation
impact
is
going
to
be
so
that
is
my
biggest
question.
If
the
project
only
requires
four
lane,
maybe
we
don't
need
another
100
or
45
million
dollars.
So
that's
why
I
just
want
to
raise
that
question
to
the
County
council
members.
Thank
you,
foreign.
I
If,
in
fact,
the
council
is
going
to
go
back
and
I,
take
Mr
robinetta's
word
and
we'll
incorporate
a
lot
of
the
things
that
have
been
said
here
tonight.
Maybe
the
better
course
is
then
to
to
get
those
comments
and
then
a
clean
copy.
Before
you
hear
my
observation
simply
was
I,
don't
think
the
parties
are
that
far
apart,
I
think
that
there
I
think
there's
a
lot
of
agreement
here
and
and
I
I
wanted
to
emphasize
that.
I
But
that's
what
I'm,
seeing
from
my
standpoint,
I
think
that
there
is
an
opportunity
here
in
the
very
near
future,
to
come
together
there
and
get
this
thing
signed.
So
so,
based
on
what
Mr
Rodman
has
said,
council
is
prepared
to
do
on
Monday
night.
The
better
course
perhaps
may
be
to
then
react
to
then
what
that
clean
product
is
to
you
at
some
point
in
time.
Thank
you.
J
I
The
half
step
to
do
here
is
to
go
ahead
and
and
pass
and
and
I'll
just
kind
of
repeat
them
for
the
sake.
Just
so,
you
know
make
sure
everybody's
saying
the
same
thing
one
would
be.
The
memorandum
agreement
has
to
have
the
scope
of
of
work
incorporated
into
the
body
of
it.
Second
of
all,
there
would
need
to
be
equal
representation
by
the
town
and
the
council.
I
In
regard
to
the
selection
committee
on
independent
contractor,
which
is
a
defined
term
in
the
agreement,
there
needs
to
be
a
new
paragraph,
eight
that
declaratively
says
the
town
is
not
giving
Municipal
consent.
Moreover,
it
is
expressly
withholding
Municipal
consent
until
such
time
as
that
has
had
the
chance
to
get
the
data
from
this
independent
contractor
and
to
assess
that
data
and
make
an
informed
decision
and
and
and
and
I
think
that,
frankly
and
and
I
realize
this
may
give
the
county
some
heartburn.
I
I
think
that's
critical
to
ownership
of
this
of
this
project
and
I
think
it's
critical
to
retain
the
public
trust
and
so
I
I
think
that
those
things
provides
enough
guidance
to
Mr,
McAllen
and
Mr
Rodman
to
take
back
to
their
colleagues
and
to
have
them,
take
it
up
on
Monday
and
then
to
have
a
clean
document
before
you
guys.
When
you
come
back
at
your
next
meeting,
I
mean
I,
guess
I
guess
that's
that
those
would
be
my
comments
based
on
what
I
heard
Mr
Robinson.
J
I
I
think
I
think
just
to
jump
in
here.
There
won't
be
a
one-on.
What
I
understanding
is
there
would
not
be
a
document.
There
would
be
a
recitation
of
things
that
the
town
would
have
to
have
included
at
a
minimum
in
order
for
it
to
be
a
favorable
consideration
by
this
Council,
because
I
think
in
that
regard.
I
In
regard
to
those
four
or
five
areas
that
I
outlined,
there
is
some
consensus
as
to
how
this
document
presented
to
you
has
been
is
deficient
and
how
it
could
be
addressed
so
I,
you
know
I
again,
I'm
I'm,
a
facilitator
here
at
best
I
mean,
but
but
I
wouldn't
Envision
a
document
being
approved
by
this
Council.
It
will
be
more
along.
The
lines
of
these
are
some
critical
points
that
will
need
to
be
included
by
the
county
in
order
for
it
to
receive
a
favorable
consideration.
L
Yeah
I
I
think
that
does
one
important
component
that's
missing
here
and
that's
a
a
timeline
associated
with
the
agreement,
and
if
it's
going
to
require
you
County,
Council
and
Town
Council,
to
meet
a
bit
more
regularly
to
get
there
I
think
we
need
to
do
that.
Okay,
I
respect
what
Senator
Davis
is
saying
as
far
as
sending
points
back
to
County
Council.
L
Let
them
digest
and
then
sent
back
to
us,
but
in
order
for
us
to
really
have
concrete
as
to
what
this
Council
agrees
to
and
what
County
Council
agrees
to
I
think
there
needs
to
be
a
timeline
Associated
and
we
have
and
again,
if
we
have
to
have
more
meetings
to
get
there,
then
let's
do
that
unless,
if
we
don't
do
that,
we're
going
to
continue
to
bounce
back
and
forth.
Okay
I
know
that
there's
some
angst
here
on
this
diet
tonight
about
sending
anything
without
being
able
to
review
it
and
process
it.
L
B
D
Oh
sorry,
thank
you.
One
other
point
that
I'd
like
to
make
that
no
one
has
addressed
tonight
is
how
we
are
going
to
analyze
the
results
of
this
independent
Review
Who's,
going
to
be
responsible
for
that.
We've
talked
about
the
selection
committee,
but
when
those
when
that
data
comes
back
from
that
engineering
firm,
what
do
we
do
with
it?
So
I
think
there
needs
to
be
some
general
agreement
as
to
how
the
county
and
the
town's
Representatives,
whoever
they
are.
Perhaps
including
residents,
will
be
engaged
to
interpret
that
and
figure
out
how
that
impacts.
B
D
B
E
No,
no!
No!
No!
It's
late!
Sorry
no
came
out
not
sure
why.
Thank
you,
mayor,
Senator
Davis.
Thank
you
for
your
negotiation
skills.
I,
think
that
that
you
have
brought
some
clarity
to
this.
What
I
would
say
is
that,
since
we
don't
have
a
document
that
we
could
review
and
agree
to
tonight
that
we
take
the
items
that
Senator
Davis
has
outlined,
I
think
he
hit
all
of
my
points
other
than
the
transportation
which
I
will
continue
to
say.
B
B
L
I
understand
the
sense
of
urgency
to
put
together
this
beach
parking
plan
and
I
commend
staff
for
funding
a
very
qualified
vendor
to
help
us
out
with
this
I'm
still
somewhat
struggling.
However,
with
this
exercise
competing
with
our
public
transportation
initiative
on
island,
you
know
you.
You
would
argue
that
if
you're
charging
folks
to
park
that
would
encourage
them
to
find
something
free
and
right
now,
I'll
free
excuse.
L
So
I
did
not
hear
from
the
vendor
the
long-term
plan
to
make
sure
that
the
two
initiatives
are
not
competing,
because
once
you
start
to
get
folks
to
do
something
besides
Park,
then
I'm
concerned
about
this
company's
seeing
this
opportunity
as
viable
okay,
so
the
two
are
still
competing
in
my
mind
and
I
I'm
having
trouble
wrapping
around
the
long-term
initiative
and
particularly
the
the
the
whole
soft
opening
or
soft
approach.
That's
supposed
to
happen
next
spring
is
not
well
defined.
K
Alex
I
appreciate
your
comments
and
I
understand
where
you
come
from,
but
it's
my
understanding
that
what
we're
doing
here
tonight
is
approving
the
appointment
of
this
this
consultant
to
take
over
our
parking
program.
This
consultant
is
nationally
recognized
and
specializes
in
nothing
but
Municipal
parking
with
a
lot
of
it
being
in
Resort
communities.
So,
given
their
expertise,
I
support
this
resolution
and
I
think
we
should
go
ahead
and
appoint
this
consultant.
Thank
you.
Mr
Mayor
and.
E
E
But
data
would
be
collected
in
terms
of
how
many
people
are
parking
in
this
area
versus
that
area
and
at
what
times
of
day,
so
that
we
could
see
a
pattern
and
collect
the
data
to
help
us
with
making
future
assessments
on
needs
for
the
island.
So,
with
those
two
caveats
in
my
comfort
level,
with
the
information
that
I
was
given,
I'm,
okay,
with
moving
forward.
B
AD
B
K
K
B
B
H
B
B
AA
The
the
recommendation
and
the
memo
includes
the
recommendation
that
came
out
of
the
galagichi
cultural
task
force
report,
which
included
that
there
should
be
a
program
to
educate
officials,
employees
area
school
teachers.
What
went
through
and
it
was
recommended
by
the
galagichi
task
force
committee-
was
a
program
for
Town
employees
and
officials.
It
was
it
did
not
apply
to
area
school
teachers
and
that
that's
out
of
our
span
of
control.
AA
So
but
it
was
descriptive
of
a
town,
Town
employees
and
officials.
That's
a
recommendation
that
came
out
from
the
task
force,
that's
a
recommendation
and
at
the
title
of
the
resolution
that
was
adopted
by
the
or
recommended
by
the
committee
and
it's
before
you
tonight.
So
if
you
look
at
the
at
the
very
first
line
of
the
on
the
resolution
title
of
the
resolution,
it
is
for
Town
employees
and
officials
and
I
know,
there's
been
some
discussion
on
whether
or
not
we
can
mandate
that
that
elected
officials
participated
in
that.
J
C
B
E
I
just
read
what
I
was
referring
to
okay,
so
under
the
document
it
says
for
Town
employees
and
officials.
That's
correct,
but
it
also
says
establish
a
program
to
educate
Town
officials,
area
school
teachers
and
others
on
Golic
culture,
so
that
they
can
better
understand
the
culture
and,
more
fact
so,
I'm
just
confused
by
the
wording.
We
don't
control
the
school
system.
That's
my
point
here:
if
it,
if
there's
another
document,
then
I
don't
have
it.
AA
So
the
the
action
that
went
before
well,
the
action
that
came
out
of
the
galagichi
task
force
was
action
on
cp7s,
a
recommendation
to
create
exactly
what's
listed
here
with
the
addition
of
various
School
teachers.
You're,
absolutely
right.
The
recommendation
should
have
clarified
the
memo.
The
recognition
to
memo
should
have
clarified.
It
didn't
include
area
school
teachers.
AA
However,
the
resolution
that
was
adopted
by
the
the
or
I'm
sorry
was
recommended
by
the
committee
to
Town
Council,
which
is
before
you
deny
clearly
identified
at
the
top
that
it
was
for
Town
officials
and
employees
and
the
third,
whereas
Clause
says
the
same
thing:
Town
officials
and
employees
there's
no
referenced
area
school
teachers
and
that
which
is
the
authorizing
document
documentation
that's
before
you
tonight.
So
if
you
passed
the
resolution,
it's
for
Town
officials
and
employees,
again,
no
I,
don't
want
to.
The
recommendation-
was
I'm
confused.
B
B
E
AA
That
program
there
is
a
there's,
a
sequence
to
say:
here's
where
this
recommendation
originated
the
beginning
of
the
document.
It
was
from
the
galagichi
cultural
report,
and
that
was
a
recommendation.
It
did
include
School
teachers
as
you
go
through
the
the
body
of
work
in
the
program.
It's
clear
that
it's
only.
It
only
applies
to
town
employees
and
officials.

This
is

A

must
be
prepared
each

Participation
and
public
input
is

B

M
J
I'm
totally
in
support
of
that
that
said,
I
believe
this
is
One
Step,
but
others
to
follow.
I
believe
we
should
have
an
initiative
here
on
Hilton
Head
for
Hilton,
Head
sure
and
we've
talked
about
various
means
to
do
that.
There's
some
creative
ones
being
Advanced
by
Senator
Davis,
and
he
was
asking
us
today
to
format
a
resolution
that
would
put
some
wind
behind
his
sail.
J
As
he
travels
to
Colombia,
we've
heard
about
the
opportunity
that
we
can
initiate
on
our
own
a
one
percent
tax
of
on
the
community,
something
we
should
think
about,
and
maybe
long-term
the
opportunity
of
again
working
with
Senator,
Davis
and
other
communities
throughout
the
state
to
take
a
a
significant
large
step,
maybe
very
difficult
to
work
on
a
change
in
Hospitality
tax
rules
of
play.
But
the
combination
of
those
monetized
will
give
us
a
significant
multiple
to
go
into
the
pond.
Market.
H
H
Colin
Sean
has
he
worked
with
the
county
on
this
I
know
that
at
certain
points
and
I
know
this
came
out
of
committee
as
well
with
a
three
to
one
vote
with
the
county
prioritize
our
funds
for
our
initial
projects
as
a
priority
right
I
know.
We
talked
about
that.
I
know
that
Mr
Greenway
was
involved
with
those
discussions.
Y
AA
Yes,
sir,
the
way
the
the
the
points
of
the
agreement
are
written
projects
serving
60
am
I,
are
given
a
priority
and
then
the
other
projects
we
judge
on
merits
and
funding
for
locations
throughout
the
year.
The
the
nine-member
committee
would
have
one
member
from
each
of
the
jurisdictions
that
participate
and
then
that
group
would
add
another
into
the
mix.
The
that
board
would
make
evaluation
of
the
project
and
determine
where
to
award
the
projects
based
on
funding
availability.
AA
So
I,
don't
know
if
that
answers
your
question
directly
Mr
manager,
but
the
the
trust
would
control
where
projects
are
located.
I
think
Town
Council
could
request
that
consideration
for
projects
on
Hilton
island
make
sure
that
there's
a
regular
cycle
or
Equitable
share
I.
Don't
know
that
what
that
means
exactly,
but
having
having
that
provision
to
say
you
know,
I
think
we
look
at
Labor
shed
and
so
labor
shed
is
beyond
just
Hilton
Head
Island,
but
from
a
product
and
transportation
across
the
bridge.
M
Mark
I
I
think
it's
it's
obvious
that
the
Housing
Trust
Fund
will
be
used
to
make
projects
work
economically,
not
to
fund
in
total
any
projects.
So
when
the
economics
are
done
with
land
costing
50
000
bucks
an
acre
versus
land
costing
250
000
an
acre,
it's
either
going
to
require
more
of
a
contribution
from
the
trust
fund,
or
it
will
require
that
the
project
be
built
with
a
lower
cost
land.
M
So
I
think
we
have
to
be
real
as
it
pertains
to
expecting
to
get
projects
being
built
on
the
island,
because
the
economics
probably
won't
work
and
that
board
will
be
conflicted
in
justifying
a
project
being
built
on
Hilton
Head
Island.
That
has
a
much
much
lower
return
if
any
as
compared
to
John
the
mainland.

I
got
something
Mr,

I'm,
just
curious

speaks
to
I,
guess
livestock

evacuation
environments
and
I
understand
I'm,
not
I
didn't
sit
on
that
committee.
I
came
to
community
services,
but
I
understood
that
there
was
assistance
through
the
county
or
the
region
somewhere
for
the
transportation
of
such
animals
and
I'm
just
wanting
to
make
sure
that
that
is
going
to
be
communicated
to
the
community
of
those
that
have
livestock
that
could
be

I
may
