A
F
You
for
coming

being
part
of
the
service,
a
Gooding
to
the
Honorable
Rick
Osborne
mayor
and
city
administrator,
John
Clem
into
all
vacant
City
Council
members
here
representing
the
Friendship
Baptist
Church
on
November
18th
2016.
We
celebrated
our
150
years
of
existence
from
1866
to
2016.
We
celebrated
150
years
commemorating
this
event
meant
so
much
to
the
community
to
our
friends,
especially
our
members
and
one
of
the
most
prized
accomplishments.
F
For
the
anniversary
was
the
publication
of
the
church's
history
and
a
limited
edition
book
entitled
the
history
of
Friendship
Baptist
Church
of
Aiken
South
Carolina
celebrating
150
years
1866
to
2016.
This
reduction
was
a
three
year
project,
I'm
going
to
ask
them
those
that
were
part
of
this
committee
to
stand.
The
authors
include:
Joe
Bradley,
Audrey,
Ogletree,
Betty,
Rucker
and
Leroy
Myrick
research
assistant
and
photographer.
F
Thanks
to
the
cooperation
of
many
public
entities,
including
the
city
of
Aiken
archives,
Achan
standards,
archive
Aiken,
County,
Public,
Library,
Aiken,
County
Museum
and
the
University
of
South
Carolina
South,
Carolinian
library.
We
were
able
to
fill
in
the
gaps
of
our
history,
which
has
been
passed
down
through
the
years.
We
discovered
that
I
found
that
the
reverend
john
phillips
I
was
appointed
as
a
trustee
to
the
school
district
1
here
in
Aiken,
and
also
a
member
of
the
Aiken
City
Council
for
20
consecutive
years.
F
We
were
also
able
to
verify,
with
the
Pine
Lawn
Cemetery
board,
Reverend
Phillips,
a
burial
plot
which
is
located
in
the
Pine
Lawn
Cemetery
here
in
Aiken,
South
Carolina
and
on
behalf
of
myself
and
your
very
own
Councilwoman
lets
it
be
pricey
with
a
valuable
member
of
our
church
and
we
love
her
dearly
and
the
Friendship
Baptist
Church.
Please
accept
this
history
book
to
be
placed
in
the
city
of
Aiken
archives
for
historical
preservation.
F
Please
know
that
we're
thankful
fall
for
all
the
Lord
has
done
for
us
over
the
years
and
we
pray
that
his
continued
blessings
will
be
upon
you
and
the
council
members.
Thank
you
for
helping
us
to
make
this
history
available
to
the
Aiken
community,
yours
truly
Reverend,
Clinton,
edges,
junior
pastor
and
the
150th
anniversary
committee
and
entire
picture.
Baptist
Church
I
want
to
present
you
with
this
book.
That's
terrific!
Thank
you.
A
Well,
I've
been
I've
been
waiting
for
this
book
to
come
out
celebration.
Yes,
sir
and
I'm
excited
to
a
good
chance
to
look
through
that,
so
it
will
make
the
archives,
but
I'm,
probably
going
to
read
it
first.
That's
all
right!
I
will
buy
a
copy
too,
but
separate.
Thank
you.
Thank
you.
All
your
church
does
for
our
community
and
I
think
it's
terrific
that
we
can
have
this
history
to
safety
time
off
exactly
what
this
church
is
missing.
C
Fair
if
I
will
say
three
years
is
a
long
time
to
work
on
any
project
and
I
will
tell
you
that
this
committee
came
forward,
work
in
harmony
and
it's
hard
to
get
people
to
work
three
years
in
harmony,
but
that
is
a
good
Christian
group.
That's
working
together.
So
thank
you
for
what
you
did
with
researching
that
history.
It's
interesting!
If
you
don't
have
your
history,
you
can
quote
misquote
some
things:
we've
misquoted
some
things
to
result
of
not
having
that
history
record.
So
thank
you,
Joe
and
the
team
for
doing
that.
I
asked.
A
E
And
whereas
the
law
enforcement
officers
of
the
city
of
Aiken,
Public,
Safety
Department
unceasingly
provides
a
vital
public
service.
Now,
therefore,
be
it
resolved
that

Aiken
City
Council,
asked
at
all
flags
on
city
buildings,
be
flown
at
half-staff,

May
15
2017,
in
recognition
of
Peace,
Officers,
Memorial
Day
and
in
memory
of
those
law
enforcement
officers
who,
through
their
courageous
deeds,
have
made
the
ultimate
sacrifice
in
service
to
their
community
or
have
become
disabled
in
the
performance
of
duty
and
to
honor
those
law
enforcement
officers.

And
as
a
recommendation,
staff
met
with
the
Board
of
Realtors
this
last
week
and
we
have
several
scenarios
that
we've
created
kind
of
generic
scenarios
that
we
will
make
available
on
the
website,
sent
them
over
to

For
you
just
to

they're

correct.

we
will
have
those
available
shortly
right.
A
You

This
is
a
second
reading
of
public
hearing
of
an
ordinance
authorizing
the
city
of
Aitkin
to
waive
its
right

first

property
owned
by
South,
Carolina
metals,
LLC,
located
in
ventures
industrial
park
by
title
and
ordinance
authorizing
the
city
vacant.
The
way
that's
right.
First,
refusal
on
the
property
owned
by
South,
Carolina,
metal,
Products,
LLC
and
located
in
Mitch's
industrial
park.
Is
there
a
motion
so.
I
Mayor
the
city

Sol,
lot
16
inventions
industrial
park
to
SC
metals
LLC
in
2005
for
a
manufacturing
facility,
SC

LLC
would
like
to
sell
their
rights
to
BTD
South
Carolina
LLC,
to
continue
its
use
as
a
manufacturing
facility.
The
city
has
the
first
right
of
refusal
for
this
property
and
would
need
to
approve
the
sale
of
the
property
ventures.
Industrial
park
was
primarily
designed
for
possible
airport
related
operations
near
the
runways
and
industrial
clients
elsewhere.
I
A
A
I
Mayor
after
recent
discussions
that
we
had
regarding
housing
in
Aiken,
the
Second
Baptist
Community
Development
Corporation
has
expressed
an
interest
in
acquiring
four
city-owned
properties
in
Friesland
Park
that
are
presently
vacant.
Lots
properties
are
at
1406,
Wyman,
Street,
1269,
Alfred,
Street,
660,
Summer,
Street
and
679
Schlemmer
Street
staff
is
recommending
that
the
city
transfer
these
properties
to
Second
Baptist
CDC
for
a
dollar
per
property.
Second
Baptist
has
been
a
longtime
partner
of
the
city
and
Northside
revitalization
and
has
a
proven
track
record
with
other
housing
partners.
I
Their
success
can
be
seen
in
the
DuPont
Landing
project.
Second
Baptist
CDC
has
made
workforce
housing
more
accessible
and
they
can,
through
their
partnerships
with
Nehemiah
CRC
and
the
Bennett
group.
Currently
the
city
of
Aiken
and
Second
Baptist

apartment
for
the
neighborhood
initiative
program
in
Carson
Park
in
the
400
and
500
blocks
of

an
agreement
with

in
Nia

CRC
to
develop
the
Abbeville

into

housing
for
city
council.
A
You
mr.
Clement
comments
from
the
audience
comments
for
council
all
those
in
favor
and
that's
unanimous.
Thank
you
moving
down
a
new
business.
This
is
first
reading
of
an
ordinance
amending
the
city
code
regarding
electronic
cigarettes
and
the
smoking
regulations
by
title,
an
ordinance
amending
section,
22
65
of
the
Aiken
City
codes
to
remove
electronic
cigarettes
on
the
smoking
regulations.
Is
there
a
motion?
Let's
to
move
mr.
mayor
a.
I
Mayor
at
the
April
24th
2017
council
meeting,
the
council
approved
on
second
reading
in
ordinance
amending
the
smoking
regulations
restricting
the
use
of
electronic
cigarettes
in
all
enclosed
public
places.
In
the
city,
we
have
received
a
request.
The
council
reconsider
this
ordinance,
which
bans
the
use
of
electronic
cigarettes
and
all
enclosed
public
places
in
the
city.
The
ordinance
passed
on
April
24th
included
a
cigarette
on
the
list
of
smoking
products
which
are
prohibited
from
use
in
enclosed
public
places.
The
proposed
ordinance
before
council
tonight
would
remove
ecig
arrests
from
the
list
of
prohibited
smoking
products.
I
By
passing,
this
ordinance
use
of
e-cigarettes
would
be
allowed
and
enclosed
public
places
for
City
Council
consideration
its
first
reading
and
public
hearing
of
an
ordinance
to
amend
the
smoking
regulations
to
remove
electronic
cigarettes
from
the
smoking
regulations
and
enclosed
public
places.
Thank.
A
You
mr.
Finch
I'll,
say
I've
asked
for
this
to
be
a
Rican
furry
consideration.
I
think
the
scope
was
broader
than
what
I.
What
I,
certainly
intended
and
thought
it
was
I
was
I
was
under
the
impression
when
we
discussed
it.
It
was
my
era,
but
I
was
under
the
impression
that
it
was
for
City
properties,
and
we
talked
specifically
about
parts
when
it
was
brought
up
to
us.
So
that
was
that
was
my
understanding.
A
As
I
went
back
and
we
read
this
and
had
conversation
about
it,
it
was
just
a
broader
spectrum
than
what
I
anticipated
or
thought
it
was
so
I'd
rather
take
care
of
this
now
than
rather
than
it
be
misinterpreted
down.
The
road
so
and
I
have
asked
John
moines's
here,
John
I'd
like
to
ask
you
you
I
know
you
run
a
store
that
deals
with
these
cigarettes
and
I
was
wonder
if
you
could
spend
a
few
minutes,
maybe
giving
us
a
presentation
on
it
on
exactly
what
what
it
is
is
a
e-cigarette.
A
O
Council
but
I
appreciate
your
reach:
incineration
and
council
men
and
women
on
this
particular
ordinance.
It
was
news
to
me
that
was
surprised
to
me
and
I
reached
out
to
the
mayor
with
my
concerns
about
the
decision
that
was
made
in
regards
to
this
ordinance.
Yes,
I
owned
a
vape
shop
and
I
started
vapor
take
USA,
it's
located
on
whiskey
Road
in
my
garage
about
five
years
ago
and
started
in
a
shipping
electronic
cigarettes
all
across
the
world,
and
I
became
very
passionate
about
ecigs
and
I
hate.
O
We
even
adopted
the
terminology
of
you
cigarette
because,
quite
frankly,
vaping
is
not
smoking
and
that's
one
of
the
reasons
why
I
have
a
difficult
time
sweeping
vaping
under
the
umbrella
of
smoking,
because
it's
not
there's
a
big
difference
between
setting
a
cigarette
on
fire
which
is
combusting
versus
vaping
and
vaporizing.
The
liquid
vaping
changed.
My
life
changed
my
dad's
life.
It's
changed,
tons
and
tons
of
friends
of
mine
lives,
they've
been
able
to
get
off
of
traditional
analog
type
cigarettes
and
they've
been
able
to
start
vaping.
O
Now
I
would
be
valid
venture
to
say
ninety
nine,
probably
0.9
percent
of
any
establishments
not
going
to
allow
you
to
smoke
and
they're
not
going
to
allow
you
to
vape,
that's
sensible.
That
makes
sense.
I
don't
want
to
be
in
a
restaurant
with
people
that
smoke
and
I,
quite
frankly,
don't
want
to
be
in
a
restaurant
with
somebody
blowing
vape
all
over
me.
My
other
concern
was:
does
this
particular
ordinance
cover
if
I'm
walking
down
the
sidewalk
within
the
city
limits
of
Aiken?
O
O
We
want
there
to
be
one
sensible
regulation
and
it
makes
sense
to
not
be
able
to
smoke
vape
in
any
city
park.
It
makes
sense.
You
know
to
not
be
able
to
vape
in
the
alley
if
there's
large
crowds
there
and
the
other
part
of
it
too,
is
it's
just
to
make
sure
that
that
those
that
are
making
decisions
in
regards
to
the
vape
industry
in
general
that
they
are
educated
decisions,
not
decisions
that
are
made
based
off
of
what
you
see
on
the
news
or
what
you?
O
What
you
see
other
municipalities
doing
and
my
last
thought
was
I
was
thinking
when
I
was
riding
over
here.
I
was
like
this
is
Aiken
South,
Carolina
I
didn't
think
that
I
was,
you
know,
going
to
have
to
come
and
talk
to
you
guys
about
vaping
and
I
even
opened
up.
Any
of
you
are
welcome
to
come
into
my
vape
shop
just
to
learn,
but
we're
also
now
that
we're
not
in
New
York
City,
where
we're
telling
people
they
can't
have
large
fries
and
big
dreams.
O
I
can
understand
if
y'all's
regulations
are
city-owned
properties
like
I
mentioned
before
parks
and
that
kind
of
stuff,
so
I
think
my
five
minutes
is
up.
I
appreciate
y'all,
allowing
me
to
come
and
present
this
and
there's
not
a
if
you're
interested
in
really
learning
about
the
vaping
industry
in
truly
how
life-changing
it
has
been
for
thousands
of
people
within
the
city
of
Aiken
feel
free
to
give
me
a
call
or
stop
by,
but
I
appreciate,
y'all's
consideration.
J
J
L
Listen
you're
going
back
to
what
the
old
ordinance
said
and
the
old
ordinance
just
refers
to
any
lighted
cigar,
cigarette,
pipe
or
other
lighted
tobacco
product
in
any
manner
or
in
any
form.
Now
the
parks
you're
able
to
prohibit
vaping
in
the
parks,
because
it's
your
property
and
you
can
pass
regulation
to
do
what
you
won't
do
with
that.
That's
that's
what
Jessica
Campbell
did
through
the
Parks
and
Recreation
Department.
Yes,.
O
D
L
P
D
O
Yeah
well,
I
mean
I
would
take
it
as
they're
actually
putting
the
tobacco
on
top
of
a
coil
when
you're
vaping
you're
not
putting
a
leafy
substance
on
top
of
a
coil,
you
are
actually
vaporizing
the
liquid.
So
there's
a
there's,
a
big
difference
between
if
you're
putting
that
tobacco
on
top
of
a
coil,
you're,
still
combusting
it
and
it's
still
smoke.
Okay
smoke
does
not
come
out
of
an
e-cigarette.
Vapor
comes
out
of
an
e-cigarette
okay.
O
Feel
free
to
stop
by
with
all
your
questions,
my
concern
was:
it
says
certain
public
places.
It
says
in
2008
the
city
of
Aitkin
created
smoking
regulations
that
prohibit
smoking
in
certain
public
spaces
within
the
city.
Do
we
know
what
those
certain
public
spaces
are
is
that
is
that
defined?
What's
a
public
space
is
the
alley
a
public
space
or
we
call
them
about
parts?
We
talked
about
Oakland
Gardens,
you
know,
so
the
the
big
thing
for
this
ordinance
is
is
a
little
clarification
so
that
down
the
road
with
future.
O
You
know,
council
that
we
don't
have
issues
with
this
particular
ordinance
on
the
book.
So
I
would
like
to
know
what
a
certain
public
place
is
certicates
in
it.
You
know,
then
it
progresses
into
the
verbage
changes
a
little
bit
and
it
says
electronic
cigarettes
and/or
cigarettes
in
public
places.
So
what's
the
difference
between
a
certain
public
place
and
what
are
they
certain
times
it
places
in?
What
is
a
public
place.
L
With
what
that
says
is
the
City
Council
has
reconsidered
the
banning
of
electronic
cigarettes
in
public
places
and
so
they're,
taking
that
out
of
the
equation.
Okay,
put
the
city
part
if
you're
in
a
city
park
or
you're
on
a
city-owned
property
there'll
be
a
sign
that
tells
you
it's
not
allowed.
Okay,
just
like
there
is
right
at
the
building,
and
so
that's
just
the
city
regulating
its
own
property
right.
There
is
no
prohibition
against
you
walking
down
the
street
with
the
vapor
okay.
O
A
Q
R
M
L
M
A
It's
not
it's
not
up
to
us.
It's
the
Imus
up
to
the
restaurant
says
it
as
a
currently
currently
is.
While
we
were
what
we
were
trying
to
address
with
city
properties,
and
it
was
just
broader
than
one
intent
was
all
right.
Thank
you.
Moving
down
to
petitions
in
request
number
one
request
to
approve
a
fireworks
display
on
July
4
2017
at
the
reserve
Club
at
Woodside
plantation.
Is
there
a
motion
I
so.
I
Mr.
mayor,
since
2003
the
Woodside
plantations
Reserve
Club
has
held
the
fireworks,
show
every
July
4th
for
many
years.
This
event
was
approved
administrative
leave,
but
in
2014
the
State
Fire
Marshal
regulations
changed
to
be
in
compliance
with
our
city
code.
City
Council
needs
to
officially
approve
this
event.
As
in
previous
years,
the
clubs
pay
for
public
safety
officers
and
equipment
to
be
present
during
the
show
and
will
follow
all
applicable
state
and
local
regulations
and
ordinances.
A
R
A
A
I
Mayor
one
of
the
projects
in
the
capital
project
sales
tax
three
infrastructure
upgrade
plan
is
the
replacement
of
the
East
pine
log
water
treatment
plant
high
speed
pumps,
which
are
over
30
years
old
and
installed
variable
frequency
drives.
On
the
booster
pumps,
there
are
six
booster
pumps
at
this
location.
We
are.
We
also
proposed
to
replace
the
two
Laurens
Street
water
tank
booster
pumps
and
install
the
variable
frequency
drives
on
those
pumps
as
well.
I
Last
year,
the
utilities
division
has
initiated
a
project
to
install
variable
frequency
drives
on
our
booster
pumps
at
our
in-ground
water
storage
tanks
and
we'll
install
seven
variable
frequency
drives
at
the
Town
Creek
and
silver
Bluff
water
treatment
plants.
We
are
now
proposing
to
replace
three
of
the
six
booster
plants
pumps
at
East
pine
log,
with
pumps
that
will
operate
with
variable
frequency
drives.
Currently,
the
booster
pumps
are
turned
on
manually
by
water
treatment,
plant
operators,
depending
on
the
changes
in
pressure
seen
at
the
various
water
plants.
I
When
the
turn
on
booster
pumps
to
provide
more
water
to
the
system,
the
come
the
pumps
come
to
full
pressure
within
two
to
three
seconds,
which
sends
a
pressure
shock
wave
along
the
water
distribution
pipes.
This
causes
stress
on
our
aging
water
pumps
of
pipes
and
can
result
in
breaks
in
the
lines
where
pipes
may
have
be
overstressed.
The
variable
speed
drives
on
these
pumps
will
be
programmed
to
start
the
pumps
gradually
over
a
length
of
time
which
will
eliminate
the
pressure
surge
shock
wave.
I
Our
controls
will
also
be
pre-programmed
to
provide
operators
with
control
over
the
rates
that
the
booster
pumps
are
set.
The
cost
to
replace
the
pumps
and
install
the
variable
speed
drives
on
the
booster
pumps
at
the
East
Pine
Lodge
water
treatment
plant
and
at
the
Lauren's
street
tank
and
to
reprogram.
The
system
is
four
hundred
and
twenty
two
thousand
nine
hundred
and
sixty
two
dollars,
which
includes
a
five
percent
contingency
for
city
council.
I
Consideration
is
approval
to
spend
four
hundred
and
twenty
two
thousand
nine
hundred
and
sixty
two
dollars
from
cps
d3
water
symphony
system
infrastructure,
upgrades
projects
to
replace
pumps
and
install
variable
speed
drives
on
the
booster
pumps
at
East
pine
log
Road
at
the
Laurens
Street
tank.
Mr.
mayor,
we
do
have
Public
Works
staff.
We
have
to
answer
any
questions
that
you
may
have.
A
E
I
Mayor
is
part
of
the
Hitchcock
would
stormwater
project.
The
council
approved
the
formation
of
a
task
force
to
address
erosion
caused
by
stormwater
discharge
into
Hitchcock
woods.
The
task
force
is
composed
of
members
of
the
City
Council,
the
Hitchcock
Woods
Foundation
and
private
citizens,
and
we
do
have
some
of
our
dedicated
members
of
our
task
force
present
this
evening
to
assist
McCormick
Taylor
our
consultants.
The
task
force
unanimously
recommends
the
City
Council
that
we
spend
up
to
one
hundred
and
fifty
thousand
dollars
with
Clemson
University
to
provide
the
following
deliverable
items.
I
Three
monitor
weather
activity
add
up
to
ten
new
locations
through
the
watershed
areas
for
installed
streaming
cameras
that
will
provide
still
photos
during
storm
events
to
understand
stream
flow
conditions,
fight,
quantify
storm,
hydrologic
flows,
draining
from
two
new
watershed
areas
and
hit
into
Hitchcock
woods.
Six
based
on
storm
event,
flows
to
help
McCormick,
Taylor,
evaluate
and
optimize
potential
locations
for
further
study.
I
The
money
for
this
would
come
from
CPS
t-to,
sofa
council
approval
is
an
expenditure
of
up
to
one
hundred
and
fifty
thousand
dollars
to
Clemson
University
to
provide
professional
services
for
the
Hitchcock
Woods
storm
water
project
and,
as
you
know,
there
are
several
members
of
our
Council
that
serve
on
this
task
force
and
we
do
have
representatives
from
the
Task
Force
here.
If
you
have
any
questions
of.
A
K
A
The
nine
points
one
thing
when
I
was
looking
over
the
gin
I
was
just
curious.
It
seems
like
some
of
the
I
think
the
GIS
modeling
I've
seen
some
presentations
that
were
already
I
guess
already
happening
with.
That
is
this,
in
addition
to
what
what
we
were
already
doing,
I
mean
expanding
the
scope
for
its.
S
The
the
GIS
and
modeling
is
based
on
the
new
data,
so
just
be
a
lot
of.
It
is
working
with
McCormick
Taylor
just
to
support
their
efforts,
so
yeah
there's
new
modeling
and
efforts.
But
it's
really
that's
not
a
major
part
of
the
proposal,
but
anyway
I'm
Chris,
post
with
Clemson
University
I'm.
Sorry,
no.
S
It's
a
total
of
about
$50,000
that
I'm
bringing
to
the
table
from
other
grants,
including
the
weather
stations
themselves,
to
add
in
some
spatial
information,
because
you
know
it
rains
on
one
side
of
town,
not
the
other,
so
we'll
be
able
to
tie
that
into
the
storm
water
monitor.
We
presently
have,
and
then
importantly,
add
Dibble,
Road
and
Highland
Park
and
Clark's
Coker
Springs
and
some
other
areas
that
are
also
contributing
to
this
problem
that
have
not
been
monitored
in
the
past.
So.
K
S
A
M
S
S
M
S
S
M
S
S
C
C
D
Fact
that
interject
a
little
bit
I'm
a
as
nice
as
I,
can
we
specifically
asked
for
some
of
these
nine
things
and
at
352,000
mr.
Kelly,
mr.
Seeley
and
I
had
put
some
things
in
the
contract
that
were
never
honored
in
that
first,
one
and
I
credit
miss
Kelly
cruising.
She
has
gone
back
over
the
data,
that's
been
collected
and
filtered
out
the
good
and
the
bad
so
to
speak.
D
That
wasn't
done
before
and
now
McCormick
and
Taylor
is
actually
using
that
data
and
getting
some
credible
results
of
the
speed
of
the
water
and
where
it's
coming
from
so
these
nine
items.
We
specifically
discussed
these
at
the
last
meeting
so
that
we
know
what
we're
getting
for
our
money
this
time,
and
most
of
this
is
producers
technical
data.
This
is
not
experimental,
work
or
PhD
degrees
or
anything.
S
T
R
Month
of
it,
yeah
question
of
part-time
attendant
to
meetings.
We've
looked
at
where
we're
looking
at
four
of
the
eight
sources
that
feed
into
Hitchcock
woods
now.
Are
we
any
further
along
to
figure
out
what
the
possible
resolution
of
the
problem
could
be
by
getting
the
data
from
these
four
places
and
are
we?
Are
we
going
to
be
tied
to
increasing
the
monitoring
and
get
collecting
data
on
the
other
four?
You.
S
A
that's
a
great
point
and
thank
you
for
asking
that
question.
The
reason
we're
not
monitoring
all
eight
is
because
there's
there's
a
dam
in
one
location,
there's
a
pond
of
the
golf
course
with
a
spillway.
So
it's
not
those
are
not
and
they
go
into
areas
that
are
not
where
there's
not
a
lot
of
rosin
in
the
sand
river.
So
we're
not
expecting
those
to
be
large
contributors,
because
there's
things
that
hold
the
water
back
and
most
of
those
other
sub-watersheds
that
are
going
in
there
so
know
this
isn't
a
trick.
S
S
R
S
Well,
I
mean
to
credit
McCormick,
Taylor
and
I
wish.
They
were
here
to
address
that
they're
already
coming
up
proposed
solutions
that
involve
retaining
and
I,
don't
want
to
speak
for
them,
but
generally
retaining
water
to
reduce
flows
for
a
certain
level
of
storm.
Thank
you.
That's
for
just
the
downtown
area.
T
M
M
D
They
actually
presented
the
the
clarified
data
that
was
Kelly,
did
and
using
two
different
formats
of
the
presentation
of
the
data,
depending
on
how
the
right
of
projected
rainfall
is
in
the
flow
of
the
water
and
have
projected
some
speeds
in
relation
to
the
pick
up
of
the
sand.
The
type
of
sand
clay,
that's
in
the
in
the
on
Sand
River,
so
we're
getting
down
and
you
I,
wouldn't
I'd,
call
it
getting
down
into
the
dirt.
If
you
will
we're
actually
doing.
D
To
the
point,
she's,
probably
actually
dealing
with
basic
data
I
would
call
it
now
and
research
R&D
is
kind
of
in
the
past.
We
want
real
data
to
be
able
to
measure
and
do
calculations
at
our
next
meeting.
I
would
expect
my
Carmen
came,
tailor
to
even
start
breaking
down
the
Sand
River
Basin
and
about
there's
five
or
six
areas
and
telling
us
what
kind
of
water
flows
are
in
those
areas.
So
we're
getting
down
in
the
basic
data
I'm.
J
Kind
of
frustrated,
quite
frankly,
I
think
you
and
I
had
in
the
same
area
Cosmo
in
price.
We
were
sure
when
we
approved
the
last
pot
of
money
to
go
to
this
project,
that
the
results
would
be
something
substantive.
I
was
expecting
that
we
would
be
told
who's
responsible
for
the
stormwater
problems
in
two
different
parts.
All
eight
I
thought
at
one
point:
when
I
started,
there
were
seven
others
eight
into
the
eight
elements,
eight
entrance
to
the
city
and
we've
studied
this
thing
for
years,
and
here
we
are,
we
want
to
study
more.
J
We
want
to
study
flow
in
different
areas.
I
mean
I've
got
a
constituent
that
sent
me
an
e-mail
today,
she's
in
enrage,
with
the
with
the
damage
it's
doing
at
houndslake
I've
talked
to
somebody
in
the
audience.
It's
that's
upset
that
nothing
is
happening
on
clock.
Road
I
mean
our
folks
want
to
see
something
happening
and
with
all
due
respect,
I
know
what
you're
doing
is
probably
fine.
Reggie
and
I
are
usually
on
the
same
page,
but
we're
not
here.
J
S
Our
initial
data
is
fighting
what
Macomb
retailers
using
to
propose
solutions
and
there
were
proposed
initial
solutions
of
the
last
task
force
meeting
so
I
think
we're
at
that
point.
We
don't
have
any
data
and
it
wasn't
including
the
original
project
to
get
information
from
Dibble,
Road
and
Highland
Park
and
Coker
Springs
and
those
lat.
Those
should
be
the
last
major
contributing
areas
into
the
watershed
and
that's
the
direction:
I'm,
sorry,
Inc
and
Clark
and
Clark
Road.
J
Really
a
basic
question:
what
do
you
need
to
know
about
Clark
Road
before
you
fix
it,
I
mean
we
know,
there's
a
lot
of
water
that
goes
in
there.
We
know
it's
doing
damage
Jimmy's,
probably
the
same
for
all
of
the
entrances.
So
what?
Why
is
it
important
that
we
know
how
much
water
flows
in
there
before
we
can
develop
a
plan
to
at
least
fix?
Let's
pick
on
clock
room,
why
can't
we
fix
clock
room
well.
S
I
mean
the
city
has
allocates
money
as
I
understand
it,
and
it's
going
to
address
some
of
the
I've
seen
the
damage
it
looks
like
an
earthquake
has
gone
through
there,
but
we've
been
asked
by
the
by
the
task
force
to
include
monitoring
there.
So
we
understand
how
much
is
contributing
into
the
total
Sand
River
I
mean
it's
it's
all
about
how
much
water
is
coming
from
different
areas,
so
you
can
deal
with
it.
S
S
A
J
Mean
we've
seen
the
massive
damage
that
the
stormwater
flow
is
down
there
right
and
again,
I'm,
not
detective
of
valuing
counsel.
But
it
seems
to
me
that
that
if
you're
going
to
slow
the
water
down,
you
either
got
to
make
a
detention,
slash
retention
pond
or
you
got
to
build
some
massive
tanks
that
are
going
underground,
that
are
going
to
hold
the
water,
and
then
you
control
its
release
so
that
it
doesn't
do
the
damage.
I
mean
that's.
Ultimately,
one
of
those
two
things
is
ultimately
going
to
happen.
Does
it
not?
Yes,.
C
There,
let
me
just
to
stab
that
you
mentioned
that.
Why
determine
how
much
water's
flowing
in
the
Sand
River-
and
that
was
the
pitch
when
we
first
started
talking
about
this
more
than
three
years
ago,
and
what
I
hear
from
citizens
is
that
you
all
are
pops
are
dug
up
there
mosquito-infested
and
we
still
don't
have
an
answer
now.
If
we
prove
this
tonight
here
is
another
150,
which
is
a
half
million
dollars
and
I.
C
S
Mean
in
all
respect,
I
mean
the
data
that
we
view
that
we
that
has
been
given
to
McCormack
Taylor
and
that's
how
they're
able
to
get
solutions
so
for
the
downtown
area
and
that's
how
they're,
without
that
data,
what
they
could
propose,
may
not
work.
So
no,
there
are
direct
deliverables
and
what
we've
accomplished.
S
T
J
J
C
A
P
P
P
Is
it
I,
don't
see
these
all
the
time
he's
actually
brought
some
of
his
colleagues
down
to
show
them
Sand
River,
when
the
city
contracted
to
have
the
bioswales
done
and
with
the
city
contracted
with
Clemson
to
monitor
they
only
monitored
a
certain
portion.
They
only
mounted
to
this
sort
of
Upper
Sand
River.
They
never
put
monitoring
devices
on
any
of
the
other
other
basins
at
all
and
why
they
didn't
do
it
I,
don't
know
what
that
contract
was
between
the
city
and
the
Clemson
we
applauded
it.
P
I
spoke
on
behalf
of
the
last
time
we
spent
this
type
of
money
to
do.
Monitoring
I
came
and
spoke
about
it.
That
was
when
Jim,
Jim
and
I
got
to
know
each
other.
We
were
on
different
sides
of
the
fence
that
time,
but
any
rate
we're
on
the
same
side
now,
but
we
have
gotten
some
preliminary
stuff
from
McCormick
and
Taylor,
which
looks
very
good.
The
goal
of
the
Hitchcock
foundation
is
very
simple:
we
want
off-site
detention
and
we
want
the
volume
not
velocity
per
se,
but
the
volume
of
water
slowed
down.
P
P
P
This
is
simply
a
way
to
collect
good
data,
which
we
know
they
can
do
at
Clemson,
collect
good
data
so
that
they
can
make
some
intelligent
decisions
in
McCormick's
in
Taylor
can
make
intelligent
decisions
and
what
they
set
up
on
Dibble
Road
entrance
to
the
woods,
and
we
call
it
the
tea
cottage
interest,
but
at
that
entrance
that's
our
second
worst
drainage
area.
If
you,
you
can't
see
it,
it's
all
overgrown
with
vegetation,
but
if
you
want
to
I'll,
take
you
down
there
one
day
and
show
it
to
you:
it's
horrible!
P
It's
another
Sand
River
in
the
making
is
all
it
is.
So
it's
our
second
priority.
Well,
we
got
the
McCormick
&
Taylor
report.
There
was
no
data
on
the
flow
coming
into
that
area
where
it
was
coming
from
how
fast
it
was
coming
or
anything
like
that.
I
will
tell
you
this
in
a
good
rainstorm.
You
shouldn't
cross
the
bridge
down
there
because
at
Ron
drive
because
it
gets
over
flown
with
water.
It
actually
disappears.
That's
how
much
water
comes
down
that
down
that
way.
P
So
I
just
tell
you
that,
so
this
was
simply
in
a
way
to
address
this,
while
they're
collecting
the
data
not
studying
it,
but
collecting
the
data
on
that
particular
sub
basin.
We
hope
that
McCormick
and
Taylor
will
be
working
on
the
fixes
for
the
upper
Sand
River
regions
of
the
flood
of
the
of
the
basin.
P
J
P
D
Equally
worried
they
show
that
rate
on
that
we're
outside
their
their
initial
calculations
are
for
two
years
storm
and
that's
one
of
the
things
that
has
to
be
determined.
Is
that
enough
detention
to
do
it
once
you
get
above
a
two-year
storm,
you
run
out
of
city
space.
To
do
it
very
good.
That's
not.
P
A
that's
not
a
big
storm.
No,
it's
not,
but
I
want
to
tell
you
what
what
we
gathered
for
their
data
and
Kelly.
If
I'm
incorrect,
please
correct
me,
but
some
doubted
that
she
gave
us
last
year
was
chart
and
it
was.
It
was
in
April
of
2016
and
at
the
various
points
I
believe
it
was
that
rained
like
point
zero.
A
J
Only
issue
the
only
issue
for
me
is
again
it's
if
you
and
again
a
two-year
study
is
not
much
I
mean
you
just
talked
about
a
very
small
rain
and
the
massive
impact
it
had
going
into
the
woods.
I'm,
not
sure,
I
see
a
solution
if,
if
we've
got
to,
if
we
can't
put
something
inside
the
woods
to
help
mitigate
it.
P
C
Let
me
just
let
me
just
mr.
intimate
just
add.
This
I
went
online
to
look
at
the
history
and
this
came
before
Council
in
2008,
so
sixteen
million
dollar
project
at
that
time.
That
was
estimated
to
get
the
work
done.
It's
very
detailed
has
49
pages
as
to
what's
taking
place.
That
was
what
was
presented
to
City
Council
during
their
Cavanaugh's
days
and
based
on
court
I'm
thinking,
I
know
that
you
said
300
and
some
are
adopt.
H
J
H
One
thing
that
we
did
agree
on
as
part
of
that
367
thousand
dollars
was
a
piece
of
it,
which
was
the
monitoring
system.
Now
Clemson
found
some
other
money
to
help
fund
that
they
they
put
in
eight
monitoring
system
within
the
storm
water
discharge
system,
so
that
they
could,
because
they
know
that
the
board
or
everybody
knows
that
the
board
wants
the
solution
off-site.
My
view
is
it'll,
be
part
off-site.
H
We
still
bump
heads,
but
we
are
working
together,
and
this
is
not
just
another
study.
This
is
to
get
real
data
so
that
McCormick
Taylor
can
come
forward
with
a
engineering
solution
for
a
piece
of
this.
At
a
time
there
is
no
one
solution.
That's
going
to
handle
all
of
these
eight
catchment
areas.
There'll
be
something
over
here
something
over
here
and
this
and
the
data
that
we're
going
to
get
out
of
this
is
what
is
the
best
engineered
system
for
each
piece.
J
P
P
Just
wanted
to
say
one
thing
about
the
data
that
they've
gotten
I
can
never
find
the
data
that
was
collected.
You
know,
I
kept
I
asked
mr.
doctor
I'd
s'en
I've
asked
other
people.
Where
is
the
data
I
asked
Roger
LaDuke?
Where
is
the
data?
How
can
I
get
to
it?
Nobody
could
tell
me
you
paid
for
it.
You
hired
them,
but
I
couldn't
find
it,
and
when
I
got
on
this
task,
force,
I
was
found
out
who
was
heading
the
storm
water
Institute
at
Clemson,
and
it
was
dr.
P
P
Then
we
saw
the
data
that
was
the
first
time
I'd
ever
seen
any
data
from
anything
that
had
been
done
so
I'm
very
heartened
by
it,
which
means
that
I
really
would
like
to
see
them
get
$150,000
so
that
they
can
complete
this
next
phase
that
we're
going
to
have
to
do,
which
is
also
going
to
be
a
massive
phase
and
see
what
they
can
find.
You
know
what.
C
P
M
And
that's
where
I
want
to
stick
my
two
cents
in
I
strongly
support
this
proposal,
I
think
and
I
credit,
I
guess
mr.
Klem
and
staff
with
the
idea,
and
maybe
the
mayor
with
the
idea
of
creating
this
task
force.
This
is
the
first
time
it's
felt
like
to
me
and
I've
been
somewhat
knowledgeable
about
this
issue.
Since
I
was
a
very
young
man
and
dr.
Sheila
used
to
tell
me
about
it.
When
I
was
12.
M
That
is
the
hope
that
this
does
produce
real
data
and
I,
really
kind
of
think
with
the
makeup
of
this
task
force
that
will
ensure
that
we
get
that
real
data
that
we'll
be
able
to
be
applied
and
used
towards
some
real
solutions
that
I
think
in
the
end
mirror
the
old
sprays
garbage
in
garbage
out.
If
we
don't
have
the
data,
if
we
just
guesstimate
and
approximate,
we
have
garbage
as
far
as
information
going
in
you're,
never
gonna
come
up
with
real
solution.
M
We've
got
to
do
this,
but
in
the
end,
I
think
the
challenge
is
going
to
be
figuring
out,
as
mr.
du
är
said,
figuring
out
exactly
what
can
be
done
exactly
where
it
has
to
be
done
and
exactly
how
it
gets
paid
for
that's
going
to
be
a
real
hard
part.
That's
very
much
support
the
proposal
as
as
as
it
is,
and
counting
on
you
guys
to
help
make
sure
it
becomes
real
data
running.
J
M
P
Would
not
fill
up
just
for
your
information
of
all
the
studies
that
the
studies
that
the
city
has
done
to
arete
to
it
to
address
this
problem.
We
have
agreed
to
allow
them
to
do
every
single
one
of
them
except
one,
and
we
did
not
like
that.
We
had
a
consultant
to
look
at
it.
It
didn't
didn't,
look
right
and
it
really
was
not
a
good
plan
and
it
wasn't
going
to
hold
up
very
long.
P
So
we
said
no
to
that
one
out
of
all
the
ones
at
the
city,
and
there
have
been
many
that
they
have.
We
all
have
conducted
on
the
thing
we
would
lie
to
everyone
of
them
to
be
done,
even
though
the
last
one
that
you're
referring
to
was
the
one
that
mr.
Ison
did
call
the
ecological
restoration
of
the
Sand
River.
He
had
two
pipes
running
down
the
woods
to
a
drop
box
right
before
it
went
into
the
Barton's
pond,
which
was
going
to
act
as
a
retention
pond.
P
The
dam
would
be
rebuilt
and
it
was
going
to
be
a
would
act
as
a
big
retention
pond
down
there,
and
we
agreed
to
that.
We
agreed
to,
though,
the
disruption
of
the
woods
at
the
two
pipes
and
everything
and
it
was
going
along
smoothly
as
far
as
we
were
concerned
and
told
the
city
heard
how
much
it
cost,
which
was
16
to
18
million
dollars,
and
we
never
heard
another
word.
We
never
heard
another
word
it
just
sort
of
into
the
ether
someplace.
So
we
don't
wait,
you
know
it's
not.
P
C
P
C
Talking
about
crime,
people
killing
each
other,
that's
what
I'm
talking
about,
but
it's
safety,
but
nevertheless,
I
will
support
this,
not
with
a
good
conscience,
because
we
have
invested
so
much
money
already
with
over
five
million
dollars.
I
could
move
move
forward
and
see
what
this
team
can
bring
forth
to
counsel
and
I
suspect.
You
should
be
able
to
tell
us
something
when
two
years
three
years,
not.
A
Think
it
would
be
quicker
than
that.
As
a
matter
of
fact,
what
I
would
like
to
do
is,
after
we
get
to
our
budget
process,
which
we're
fixing
in
or
into
they'll
give
the
task
force
a
couple
months
also
I'd
like
to
after
that
process,
have
a
meeting
where
we
for
the
task
force
to
give
us
an
update
on
where
we're
at
so
well.
C
J
Just
I
agree
with
what
our
Councilwoman
price
is
a
great
respect
for
the
people
on
task
force.
I
just
and
I'll
support
it,
but
again
I
want
to
I'm
frustrated
I'm
I
want
to
see
the
end
of
it.
I
want
to
see
the
end
of
the
solution
and
we
X
amount
of
money
in
CPS,
T,
I'm,
not
sure
I'm
not
trying
to
be
much
more
when
we
get
out,
because
we
have
a
massive
infrastructure
to
me
and
placed
on
the
city
right
now
that
doesn't
include
Hitchcock
woods
in.
M
Word
of
that
I
think
it's
important
that
it
to
make
this
one
point
of
the
five
million
dollars
it's
been
throw
around
here.
The
vast
majority
of
that
was
not
sitting
vacant
accurate
money
tires,
Moses
was
a
smaller
person
so
for
the
people
watching
or
that
might
be
reading
about
it
tomorrow
or
whatever
you
know.
The
city
hasn't
spent
five
million
dollars
to
see
taxpayer
money
on
this,
although
it's
still
I
think
her
point
is
still
a
good
one,
but
but
it's
just
not
city
tax
dollars
to
the
tune
of
five
million.

I've
got
a
comment:
oh
I
kind
of
alluded
to
it.
When
I
first
asked
the
question:
does
McCormick
Taylor
have
any
performance
history
in
the
past,
which
actually
shows
a
problem
similar
to
ours
that
they
resolve
satisfactorily
or
as
a
solution
going
to
be
fifteen
or
eighteen
million
dollars?
We
should
have
stuck
with
like
a
dr.
Chile's.
We
should
stuck
with
the
fourteen
million
dollars
solution.
D
D
It
depends
on
whose
advertisement
you've
read
of
their
past
projects.
All
of
the
we
interviewed
was
it
for
for
interviewed
for
contractors
that
have
done
this.
Similar
work
in
South
Carolina,
as
well
as
other
states
and
there's
well
gave
us
the
best
feeling.
If
you
will
and
that's
what
it
is,
a
feeling,
as
well
as
engineering
data
they
provided
and
they
provided
the
most
data
about
Sand
River.
That's
how
they
were
chosen
to
solve
the
problem
not
to
study
it,
but
to
come
up
with
a
solution
and
a
price.
S
R

The
river
itself
is
is
unique
without
a
doubt,
the
water
going
to
it
is
not
a
unique
problem.
Mother
nature
rains
everywhere,
and
this
has
been
grumble
about
dr.
reisen's
report
and
city
manager,
Pearson
City,
Manager
LeDoux.
He
didn't
provide
us
the
data
and
I'm
smart
enough,
and
most
everybody
on
council
can
take
twelve
hundred
and
fifteen
and
multiply
it
by
how
many
inches
at
range
and
figure
out
how
much
water
you
got
and
now
we're
Misskelley
is
taking
the
date
and
refined
it
down.
A
A
Moving
down
petitions
and
requests
and
I
appreciate
those
members
of
the
task
force
who
are
here
tonight
and
appreciate
you
guys
coming
also
number
four
is
a
request
for
approval
to
spend
capital
project
sales
tax
funds
for
phase
one
B
utility
infrastructure
improvements
in
downtown
redevelopment
project
area.
Is
there
a
motion
so.
I
Mayor
at
the
April
24th
2017
meeting,
the
council
approved
for
phase
one
a
for
utility
work
in
the
downtown
redevelopment
area.
At
that
time
we
told
council
the
public
work
staff
would
come
back
to
the
council
at
the
May,
a
2017
meeting
with
a
recommendation
and
cost
for
design
services
associated
with
phase
one
B
stormwater
in
the
downtown
redevelopment
area.
Our
engineering
staff
has
worked
with
consultants
and
has
obtained
a
cost
estimate
of
twenty
four
thousand
five
hundred
dollars
for
stormwater
improvement
plans
in
the
downtown.
I
The
consultant
will
coordinate
their
analysis
in
design
with
the
Hitchcock
would
storm
water
task
force
consultant
McCormick
Taylor
staff
is
recommending
the
use
of
CPS
tee
to
funds
from
from
CPS
D
monies
for
City
Council
consideration
as
approval
to
proceed
with
professional
services
for
stormwater
improvement
plans
in
the
Downtown
Development
area,
with
funding
from
CPS
t2.
Now,
staff
has
met
several
times
on
this
issue
and
we
are
at
this
point
contemplating
the
possibility
of
hiring
McCormick
Taylor
for
this
additional
work.
I
We
obviously-
and
we
receive
some
some
very
legitimate
concerns
from
representatives
of
the
Hitchcock
Woods
foundation-
that
they
wanted
assurances
that
the
left
hand
knew
what
the
right
hand
was
doing
in
terms
of
what
we're
doing
in
the
downtown
area,
and
we
think
the
best
way
to
deal
with
that
legitimate
concern
is
hire
McCormick
Taylor
for
the
downtown
work
as
well.
So
that
will
be
our
recommendation.
It
is
the
recommendation
of
Public
Works
staff.
We
do
have
public
work
staff
here
to
answer
any
questions
that
you
may
have.

So
we're
going
to
have
a
very
quick
budget
work
session,
we're
going
to
recess
for
five
minutes,
we'll
meet
meeting
the
2:04
for
that
and
the
council
will
go
back
into
executive
session
after
them.
So
what
would
be
the
right
motion
of
this
time
to
adjourn
the
regular
English
new
year,
so
I
need
a
motion
to
adjourn
I
move,
miss
Mary's
and.
