Description
City of Charleston Ad Hoc Budget Advisory Committee 8/24/2022
A
D
A
All
right,
thank
you
all
for
joining
us
for
this
august
24th
meeting
of
our
ad
hoc
budget
advisory
committee.
The
agenda
says
a
moment
of
silence.
I
would
just
like
to
offer
almost
a
grace
to
thank
god
for
the
many
blessings
that
we
do
have.
I
know
we
have
challenges
to
fund
all
that
that
we
would
like
to
fund,
but
I
ask
the
lord
to
guide
us
and
make
us
good
stewards
of
the
resources
that
we
have
for
the
benefit
of
our
city
and
our
citizens.
A
In
your
name.
We
pray
amen.
A
So
I
think
amy's
got
most
of
the
show,
as
usual,
she's
going
to
start
out
with
our
july
monthly
reports
on
both
expenditures
and
income,
and
it's
all
pretty
good
news,
if
I
may
say
so,
and
and
then
we'll
talk
about
our
capital
improvement
plan
and
some
additions,
we're
proposing
for
that
and
and
then
the
upcoming
couple
of
months
we're
going
to
get
really
back
in
action
again
with
the
budget
process,
we'll
be
starting
to
review
all
the
departments
real
soon
and
so
amy.
B
Sure,
good
afternoon,
everyone
expenditures
for
the
month
of
july.
I
think
these
are
always
very,
very
small,
so
I
apologize,
but
you.
E
C
B
Your
what
I
sent
to
you
last
night,
too,
every
department
tracking
your
budget
right
now
kind
of
where
we
are
every
single
month.
Lately
we're
ahead
of
target
through
july
with
salary
savings
as
well
I'll
stop
here.
Unless
you
want
me
to
just
keep
going,
I
want
to
take
a
minute
to
look
at
it.
B
City-Wide
we're
ahead
of
our
salary
savings
target.
We've
budgeted
6
million
right
now,
we've
taken
4.8
million
so
far,
gas,
oil
and
lubricants
are
over
target,
but
we
have
a
field
slide,
we'll
go
over
like
I
do.
Every
month,
vehicle
repairs
are
over
mostly
in
the
police
department,
but
some
of
that
was
a
timing
issue
because
anybody
has
had
to
have
repairs
to
a
vehicle.
It
takes
a
long
time.
We
receive
the
money
in
last
year
in
2021,
but
we
weren't
able
to
get
the
cars
fixed
until
2022.
B
So
that's
a
lot
of
that
issue
there
and,
like
we
said
under
budget
in
all
departments
as
of
july
31st.
B
A
lot
of
that
has
to
do
with
vacant
positions,
with
the
exception
of
fire
and
human
resources,
who
haven't
really
had,
which
is
surprising,
because
hr
has
had
some
turnip
work,
but
right
now,
they're
they're
doing
okay
operationally
the
only
departments
are
turning
over
budget
is
executive,
but
that's
mostly,
and
that's
actually
all
due
to
and
the
department
isn't
tracking
over
it's
just
it's
under
budget,
with
the
exception
of
legal
because
of
our
professional
and
contractual
services,
for
the
lawyers,
fees
that
we're
paying
but
julia's,
making
some
adjustments
to
that.
B
It's
just
some
of
the
legal
issues
that
we've
had
that
have
caused
her
to
be
a
little
bit
over
budget.
As
of
july
31st.
A
Amy,
maybe
the
the
sound
quality
of
being
being
on
zoom,
but
could
you
slow
down
just
a
little
bit
sure
yeah?
Thank
you.
B
You
know
me:
I
threw
this
stuff
fast
recreation.
We
talked
about
this
last
or
I
guess
in
may,
when
we
went
through
monthly
reports,
we
have
a
lot
more
participation
in
some
of
our
programs,
so
their
expenditures
are
tracking
over
budget,
but
we
have
revenues
to
match
that
so.
D
D
B
Thank
you.
So
then
we
have
a
few
of
my
mouse.
Isn't
working
sorry
hold
on
there.
We
go
that's
that
right,
okay,
so
fuel
costs.
We
talked
about
this
we're
kind
of
leveling
out.
I
hope
we
budgeted
three
dollars
and
fifty
cents
a
gallon
average
price
per
gallon
as
of
july.
B
29Th
was
three
dollars
and
ninety
four
cents,
if
we
stay
here,
we'll
be
about
264
thousand
dollars
over
budget
for
the
year,
but
if
it
goes
up
to
4.74
cents,
we'll
be
over
budget
by
approximately
552
000,
so
we're
just
paying
attention
and
keeping
track
of
that
monthly,
not
a
whole
lot.
We
can
do
about
that.
D
A
Needless
to
say,
it's
so
dependent
on
worldwide
events
and
the
situation
in
ukraine
and
russia
that
you
just
can't
predict
it.
We
we
didn't
know
it
was
going
to
be
like
this.
That's
for
sure.
E
B
So
revenues
tracking
over
target
so
far
business
licenses
has
again
surprised
us
and
has
come
up
much
higher
than
we
anticipated.
We
did
have
the
new
due
date
this
year
of
may
1st,
so
we
feel
like
this
is
a
a
good
number
for
us.
We,
you
know
that
didn't
affect
us
at
all.
The
due
date
change
so
anyway,
they're
we're
doing
very
well
in
business
licenses,
local
options,
sales
tax,
we've
talked
about.
B
Obviously
it's
doing
very
well
permits
and
fees
are
track
tracking
slightly
over
time
target,
whereas
at
the
end
of
may
they
were
a
little
bit
under.
So
that
looks
a
little
bit
better.
Building
inspections
would
work
with
them
for
2023
on
on
how
they're
budgeting
their
revenues.
B
D
Amy,
what
I
mean
we,
we
would
normally
expect
our
property
taxes
to
be
what
they
are.
I
mean
what
what
has
created
the
variance
in
the
property
taxes.
B
D
B
A
Yeah-
and
I
think
it's
interesting
to
note
y'all-
that
we
didn't
have
any
negative
impact
on
the
business
licenses
that
we
know
of
from
following
the
statewide
protocol
that
was
agreed
upon
and
put
upon
us
really
by
the
state
legislature,
but
it
was
done
in
in
agreement
with
the
municipal
association.
So
you
know
everybody's
doing
the
same
thing
statewide
and
it's
all
on
the
same
due
date,
no
matter
where
you
are
in
the
state.
So
you
know
when
that
first
came
down.
F
B
B
All
funds
are
tracking
over
target
parking
is
doing
very
well.
We've
talked
about
the
golf
course
doing.
Well,
just
a
reminder
too,
with
a
renovation,
the
expectation
was.
The
golf
course
would
make
a
profit
around
300
000
a
year
to
kind
of
recoup
the
cost
of
the
renovation
and
the
surplus
was
supposed
to
go
towards
future
maintenance
costs
of
the
course
just
wanted
to
remind
everybody
that
considering
we
have
some
discussions
about
future
renovations
at
the
golf
course.
A
G
B
G
Please
no
problem,
thank
you,
councilman
gregory
and
thank
you,
mr
mayor,
and
I
just
wanted
to
echo
that
you
know
the
municipal
golf
course
is
in
my
district
and
while
I'm
not
much
of
a
golfer,
I
surely
admire
everything
that
they've
done
over
there
and
if
we
can
continue
to
track
positively
in
this
regard
financially
and
have
some
resources
open
up
to
maybe
look
into
building
some
more
of
those
restrooms
that
we've
heard
about.
G
A
It's
not
only
on
our
capital
projects
yet,
but
I
did
ask
jason
to
go
ahead
and
look
at
like
where
the
closest
sewer
lines
are
because
that's
a
big
function
of
the
cost
of
putting
in
bathrooms
as
to
how
far
you
got
to
run
your
line
to
get
to
them,
so
he's
going
to
go
ahead
and
scope
that
out
and
kind
of
come
up
with
a
preliminary
budget.
So
so
we
are
working
on
that.
A
In
the
meantime,
I
did
want
to
remind
everybody
that
there
there
are
bathrooms
at
the
clubhouse
and
some
of
the
comments
we
received
almost
made.
It
sound
like
there
weren't
any
available
they
are,
and
I
I've
asked
that
the
we
check
in
with
our
portalet
service
to
make
sure
that
we're
servicing
those
portal
that's
more
often
and
as
as
frequently
as
they
need
to
be
just
in
the
interim
period.
Just
to
let
you
all
know.
D
I
I
think
one
of
the
things
that's
lost
on
us
is
the
renovation
of
the
golf
course
has
generated
this
sense
of
great
pride
out
there,
for
this
has
now
become
the
crown
jewel
of
the
recreation
department.
D
If
you
try
to
book
a
tee
time,
particularly
on
the
weekends
or
from
thursday
on
you've
got
to
get
up
at
six
o'clock
in
the
morning
and
and
hit
that
this
is
this,
is
reality
and
and
hit
that
request
you
get
a
decent
tea
time.
Otherwise,
you
you
lose
out.
D
That's
just
sort
of
a
measure
of
the
popularity
of
the
golf
course
and
the
other
thing
that's
really
been
very
keen
with
marshall
and
his
staff
and
in
the
golf
commission
is
that
if
we
wanted
to
take
advantage
of
the
popularity
of
the
golf
course,
we
could
raise
fees
and
bring
it
at
a
much
higher
level,
but
we're
not
doing
that.
This
golf
course
is
serving
the
public
need
for
those
who
want
to
go
out
there
and
just
enjoy
several
hours
of
this
beautiful.
D
Of
course
it's
it's
got
this
natural
beauty
out
there
and
and
you've
got
18
holes,
and
so
would
they
need
the
I
hate
to
say
the
relief,
but
what
they
need
the
relief.
You
can't
make
it
back
to
the
golf
course
in
time
and
it's
it's.
These
quarter
lengths
are
smelly
and
stinky,
and
it's
really
quite
embarrassing.
I
mean
it
really
is
for
the
city
of
our
statue
to
have
these
things
out
there.
D
One
thing
that
if
this
was
a
temporary
issue
and
one
thing
as
you
know,
this
was
just
for
crowd
control
measures,
but
we
heard
and
then
very
loud
and
clear
that
these
folks,
we
they
just
don't.
This
is
not
a
luxury
item.
This
is
a
necessity
item
and
I'm
gonna
yield
my
further
comments.
I
see
my
colleague,
caroline
parker,
raising
her
hand
out
here.
She
may
want
to
add
more
to
it
than
what
I
when
I
said
that
we.
D
A
C
C
C
I
guess
there's
a
pilot,
you
know
for
whatever
the
again
I'm
not
a
golfer,
so
this
is
above
me,
but
that
is
something
I
think
to
consider
thinking
that
maybe
these
improvements
could
possibly
pay
for
themselves
if
they're
available
to
get
some
of
those
bigger
tournaments
at
their
course
just
wanted
to
throw
that
out
there.
That
was.
That
was
a
comment
and
a
an
email
that
I
received.
Maybe
all
of
you
received
it
as
well.
A
Okay
well
well,
thank
you.
I
know
sometimes
with
tournaments,
you
get
extra
attendance
and
even
when
I
went
to
the
pro
tournament,
they
they
have
these
nice
portalette
trailers.
I
mean
bathroom
trailers
they
bring
in,
and
it
may
come
that
we
need
to
do
that
for
a
period
of
time
before
we
can,
even
if
we
started
with
a
capital
project
to
add
some
bathrooms,
believe
it
or
not.
A
It's
going
to
take
a
little
while,
but
I've
already
asked,
as
I
mentioned,
jason
go
ahead
and
spec
out
where
the
closest
lines
would
be
and
meantime
we
we
hope
to
continue
our
partnership
with
the
friends
of
the
muni
to
help
fund
these
things
and
we've
been
waiting
to
get
a
a
memorandum
of
understanding
back
from
the
friends
of
the
muni,
so
hopefully
that
that
all
comes
together,
councilmember
sheila.
Thank
you,
mr
mayor.
E
You
know
the
the
friends
of
the
muni
you
know
have
certainly
done
a
good
job
of
fundraising
and
they've
done
a
great
job
of
getting
people
out
there,
they're
they're
spending
money
on
our
behalf
right
now,
when
they
they're
getting
ready
to
vote
on
a
marketing
program.
That's
going
to
drive
more
people
than
we
already
have.
Is
this
big
a.
E
You
know
that
group
of
business
people
with
the
friends
of
muni
they
have
they
have
some
great
business
people
on
there,
and
certainly
we
all
saw
the
you
know.
We
all
saw
the
presentation
that
troy
miller
made
and
you
know
to
the
recreation
committee.
It
was
passed
on
to
all
of
our
city
councils,
so
they're
going
to
continue
to
help
us,
but
I
think
when
we
look
at
bathrooms,
I
I
I
think
it's
a
hard
sell
for
them
to
to
they're
a
non-profit
group.
E
E
We're
going
to
everything
they
do
we're
going
to
see
a
return
of
investment
on
and
those
bathrooms
are,
are
a
necessity.
It
would
be
a
necessity
anywhere,
and
you
know
like,
like
some
of
the
other
council
members,
said
it's
a
long
way
from
when
you
get
five
or
six
holes
away
from
that
clubhouse
to
have
to
go
back
or
have
a
choice
of
peeing
in
the
woods
or
using
a
stinky
urinal.
You
know
you
know.
E
A
Well,
I
I
appreciate
all
their
collaboration,
you
know
they.
They
were
pretty
much
founded
when
we
embarked
upon
the
renovation
of
the
course,
and
we
talked
about
bathrooms
being
future
improvements
with
the
friends
at
the
inception
at
the
very
beginning
of
the
formation.
I
I
called
my
cousin
and
some
other
folks
together
that
helped
start
that
thing
so
bathrooms
was
was
on
the
agenda
from
the
very
get-go
and
it's
a
I
think,
everybody
who
would
agree.
It
would
be
a
great
improvement
to
the
course.
A
E
I
mean
if,
if,
if
we
just
need
to
get
some
sense
of
cost,
you
know
we
did
the
bathroom
in
ferguson,
village,
yep
and
a
really
great
great,
bathroom
and
style,
but
I
think
that
ran
us
somewhere
around
a
quarter
of
a
million
yeah
yeah.
I
think
it
was
about
three
three
hundred
exactly
yeah,
so
people
get
a
sense
of
what
it's
going
to
cost
yeah.
A
And
that
was
for
portland
lou,
which
I'm
told
second
hand
that
the
folks
that
our
friends
at
the
muni
and
courts
would
like
a
more
traditional,
larger
bathroom
facility
like
we
would
have
at
a
park
house
and
those
cost
about
in
today's
dollars
about
a
half
million
dollars.
And
that's
assuming
you,
you
got
a
line,
that's
close,
pretty
close
to
a
sewer
line
so
that
that's
what
we
got
to
check
out.
First
council,
remember
where.
F
Yeah,
I
was
just
I
agree
with
everybody.
I
mean
I'm
on
the
same
page.
I
don't
play
golf,
but
that's
an
amenity
that
benefits
the
whole
city
frankly,
but
I
would
ask
if
you
would
get
jason
to
reach
out
to
see
the
people
at
cws.
F
They
know
they
know
all
the
high
spots
and
low
spots
and
where
the
water
lines
are
where
the
sewer
you
know
taps
are.
I
think
you
can
kind
of
run
down.
Some
save
jason,
a
few
footsteps
if
he
gets
in
contact
with
mark
over
there.
I
think.
F
Do
it
in
kind,
pretty
quick
to
get
no
more
cost
effective
locations
to
locate
them,
locate
those
restaurants
but
listen.
F
You're
right,
mr
mayor,
you,
you
came
up
with
that
friends
of
the
beauty.
I
don't
know
how
long
municipal
golf
course
has
been
around,
but
I
never
heard
it
until
you
put
like
the
group
may
have
been
around,
but
I
had
never
heard
until
you
pull
it
together,
got
that
public
private
partnership
going
on.
So
everything
on
this
thing
is
really
good.
You
know
it
kind
of
came
the
head
a
little
bit
surprised
there,
but
we
all
on
the
same
page.
It
will
happen.
F
B
The
point
so
that
that
just
recently
came
up,
we
haven't
really
had
a
chance
to
really
work
with
that
yet
and
we
are
trying
to
get
started
on
it
and
there's
other
considerations
that
we
have
to
take
into
consideration
with
the
golf
course
and
the
debt
it
was
the
general
fund
and
all
of
those
other
things.
So
we
are
working
on
that
and
can
we
move
on
stormwater.
B
So
right
now,
revenues
are
about
225
000
over
budget
expenditures
are
under
budget
by
1.6.
Some
of
that
is
timing.
You
know
we
have
emergency
funds
set
aside
that
we
really
haven't
had
to
use
yet,
which
is
a
good
thing,
and
then
you
know
person.
We
all
know
about
the
personnel
issues
that
we
have.
So
I
don't
need
to
talk
about
that.
Any
questions
about
that.
F
Let
me
I
did
speak
with
councilman
greg
and
today,
and
he
couldn't
be
on
this
meeting,
but
he
made
mention
about
over
that
governor's
part
in
that
big
old
activity
field
they
got
over.
There
apparently
holds
a
pretty
good
bit
of
water
yeah.
B
We
have
that
councilmember
wearing
later,
because
that.
B
B
So
tourism
funds
really
doing
well
with
tourism
funds,
we're
we
budgeted
very
close
to
2019
and
we're
tracking
well
above
budget
we're
at
70.49
percent
of
what
we
budgeted
at
the
end
of
july.
So
there's
no
doubt
that
we'll
exceed
our
our
2022
budgeted
revenues.
You
see
municipal,
a
tax
where
you
know
we
budgeted
7
million
we're
at
4.5.
B
Just
looking
at
all
of
those
numbers
there
state
a
tax
is
a
little
bit
funky
because
we
had
one
large
hotel
that
was
a
little
bit
behind
on
their
payments
just
because
there
was
a
sale
and,
and
that
type
of
thing
it
wasn't
purposeful.
So
those
revenues
came
in
in
22
which
really
were
for
21.
So
it's
skewing
those
numbers
just
a
little
bit
and
then
we.
E
B
Have
the
robin
hood
clause
where
the
state
keeps
some
keeps
some
of
our
money
to
give
to
less
fortunate?
I
don't
want
to
say
that,
but
some
counties,
it's
cities
that
don't
have
as
much
tourism
and
we
actually
got
a
larger
amount
back
for
that
than
we
typically
do
so
that
number's
a
little
bit
higher.
For
those
two
reasons
so
far,
you
can
see
hospitality
we're
already
at
11.3
and
tourism,
ticket
fees
we're
tracking
better
than
we
have
for
the
last
couple
of
years
as
well.
F
Mr
miller,
yes,
sir,
I
hate
to
go
back
but
stonewater.
I
know
we
have
been
looking
at
had
a
consultant
or
whatever
looking
at.
Are
we
going
to
go
about
getting
those
late
fees?
I.
E
F
Want
are
we
close
to
having
an
answer
on
whether
we're
going
to
have
an
ad
fly
to
property
taxes,
though.
B
We
are,
I
know,
that
they've,
they
have
finished
their
report-
council,
member
wearing
and
they're,
getting
that
to
mr
fountain
for
him
to
look
at,
and
so
I
think
the
plan
is
to
bring
it
to
public
works
and.
E
D
B
D
Mr
mayor,
yes,
sir
amy
a
question-
and
I
I
think
I
should
know
the
answer
to
this
question,
but
if
we
were
to
break
down
tourism
revenues
in
a
quarterly
fashion
on
all
on
our
revenue
is
pretty
consistent
by
quarter.
B
I
think
they're
becoming
more
normal
than
they
have
because
we're
not
having
we're
not
seeing
the
peaks
and
valleys
that
we
used
to
see
because
it
seems
like
charleston,
is
busy
all
year
round
now.
So
I'd
have
to
look
at
it
by
quarter
of
customer
mache,
but
we're
just
noticing
that
it
they're
kind
of
they're
you
will
have.
You
will
have
some
months
that
have
more
than
others.
So
it's
not
every
quarter
is
exactly
the
same.
B
D
No,
I
I
agree
with
you
100.
I
think
that
not
too
long
ago
we
had
seasons,
but
now
I
think
that
this
is
almost
a
year-round
tourist
designation
and
I
agree
with
you
I'm
sure
that
so
much
outperform
other
months,
but
that's
why
I
said
quarterly
basis.
I
think,
and
the
reason
I'm
bringing
that
up.
We've
got
five
more
months
of
revenue
and
we're
at
almost
we're
at
70
of
our
revenue
for
five
months
to
go.
That's
that's
pretty
telling!
I
think,
and
that's
why
I
was
asking.
B
Honestly
september
tends
to
be
our
slower
months,
but
we
I'll
bring
that
next
time,
council
membership.
We
can
look
at
it
by
quarter,
so
you
can
kind
of
see
over
the
last
few
years
what
it's
look
like
and
how
it's
changing.
If
that
would
be
helpful.
A
And-
and
this
is
one
category
that
I
think
we're
hesitant
to
spend
till
we
get
it
in
a
way
because
it's
the
most
what's
the
term
economists
use
the
most
elastic
or
whatever
that
it,
as
we've
seen
from
covet
and
weather
events
of
the
past
it
it
can
turn
on
a
dime.
It's.
A
It's
more
vulnerable,
that's
a
good
word
so,
but
it's
doing
doing
great
this
year.
So
let's
keep
our
fingers
crossed.
D
B
So,
with
the
success
we've
talked
about
some
things
that
we
we
could
do
second
sunday.
We
had
talked
about
that
last
time
with
the
need
to
attract
our
officers
and
pay
them
a
little
bit
more.
For
a
second
sunday,
we
had
agreed
to
3
million
for
daniel
island
tennis
center
renovation
to
pay.
We
could
pay
it
over
three
years.
We
paid
one,
so
we
could
actually
cover
the
additional
two
million
commitment
this
year
and
get
that
and
take
care
of
that.
A
theater.
B
The
dog
street
theater
led
light
conversion
that
would
be
about
800
000..
We
needed
a
little
bit
of
additional
funding
for
the
charleston
9
firefighter
memorial
because
of
this
additional
cost
and
a
little
bit
of
a
change
in
scope
to
that
project.
So
we
can.
We
allocate
the
remaining
funding
to
that
golf
course
netting
it
that
was
supposed
to
be
part
of
the
renovation
has
not
been
done
yet
and
it
needs
to
polls.
B
B
You
all
just
passed
that
the
last
council
meeting
the
visitor
center
renovation,
so
we
can
take
care
of
that.
That
would
be
with
state
accommodations
tax
and
then
additional
funding
for
the
mother,
emanuel
memorial,
so
we'll
be
bringing
that
to
city
council
for
approval,
which
we
can
utilize,
both
state
a
tax
and
hospitality
funding
for
and
then
we
did
receive
our
accommodation.
Tax
grants
were
due
august
11th
for
2023
and
we
received
39
applications
and
the
a
tax
committee.
F
Yeah,
I
do
we
got
anything
in
here
for
the
green
west,
hashtag,
greenway
or
bikeway.
You
know
we
took
2
million
from
west
ashley
doing
the
pandemic
that
we
had
set
aside
for
improvements.
West
ashley.
We
all
know
why
you
know
it
certainly
didn't
want
to
furlough
people
and
that
money
needed
needed
to
come
back,
but.
B
B
F
Know
my
point
to
the
to
the
committee
all
due
respect,
doing
19
we
put
money
aside
for
improvements.
West
ashley
was
for
future
improvements,
west
nation
due
to
pandemic
and
lower
revenue
fees.
Those
monies
came
back
into
the
city
for
for
good
reason.
So
when
do
we
get
back
to
doing
something
like
that?
We've,
I
won't
say
we
flush,
but
we're
certainly
a
lot
more
revenue
present
than
it
was
in
20
and
21..
F
I
just
want
to
keep
that
in
mind.
Otherwise
we
cannot
revitalize
wesley
actually
without
revenue.
A
So
so
you'll
see
in
the
capital
improvements
list
coming
up
in
a
few
minutes,
there
are
a
number
of
parks,
west
ashley
in
the
greenway
and
just
a
number
of
them
we'll
get
to
them
in
just
a
few
minutes.
Thank.
A
It's
fine
that
including
just
some
general
funds,
as
has
been
requested
by
the
west
ashley
ravana
revitalization
commission,
to
do
some
beautification
and
some
signage
over
there
as
well.
We
we
we
have
a
line
item
for
that
for
you,
as
well
as
part
of
our
capital
improvements
budget.
This
this
would
be.
You
know
the
kind
of
tourism
related
things
that
we're
able
to
to
justify
and
for
all
those
regulations
we
have
with
accommodations
one.
A
In
particular,
I
if
I
could
call
on
council
member
gregory
to
share
with
us
an
update
about
the
mother
emanuel
memorial
because
they're
in
a
kind
of
at
a
decision
point
of
ordering
this
this
marble
and
other
materials
and-
and
he
can
tell
you
more
about
it
than
I
can
but
we've
we
felt
like
it's
it's
given
the
the
success
we
we're
seeing
in
these
funds
right
now
that
it's
it's
an
appropriate
request
to
fulfill
or
ask
council
to
consider
to
fulfill
council
member
gregory.
E
E
At
this
point
in
time,
we've
already
been
to
italy,
the
stones
for
the
benches
are
being
cut
and
it's
time
for
us
to
start
construction
and
given
the
shortfall
that
we
have,
it
would
hinder
the
project
considerably,
which
is
a
reason
why
the
board
would
like
for
the
city
as
well
as
the
state
and
others
to
contribute
a
little
more
money
so
that
we
can
meet
these
deadlines
that
are
coming
up.
E
I
did
share
with
you
mayor
as
as
well
as
amy
the
budget
and
where
we
are
in
terms
of
fundraising,
but
this
shortfall
is
going
to
definitely
have
an
impact
on
construction
and
completion,
and
that's
the
reason
why
we're
coming
back
to
the
city
for
additional
funds.
A
So,
and
from
what
I
understand,
there's
the
italian
marble,
but
there's
also
a
good
bit
of
stone,
that's
being
quarried
up
in
minnesota
or
somewhere
southern
part
of
canada,
and
they
only
do
it
for
certain
months
of
the
year
if
they
don't
go
ahead
and
get
it
on
order
before
the
winner
comes
in
then
it'll
delay
us
a
full
year
and
the
opportunity
I
just
remind
everybody
about
this.
Memorial
is
going
to
be
so
powerful
for
our
city.
A
In
remembering
what
happened
at
mother
emanuel,
but
in
effect
for
the
city
of
charleston
it
it,
it
adds
almost
a
public
space
around
the
church
that
that
it's
almost
like
adding
another
part
to
our
park
system,
because
it
really
opens
up
the
gates
around
the
church,
to
the
public
to
be
able
to
reflect
and
and
remember
those
who
who
died
and
and
the
whole
tragedy
and
the
hope
for
the
future.
So
I
mean
it's
it's
it's
just
going
to
be
such
an
incredible,
powerful
addition
to
our
city.
A
I
believe
it's
it's
with
prices
rising
and
the
opportunity
to
to
move
forward.
I
think
they've
raised
something
like
10
million
dollars.
Isn't
that
right?
Councilman,
yes,
so,
but
but
to
get
the
shovel
in
the
dirt
and
put
this
order
and
get
the
rest
of
the
stone
quarried.
Frankly,
they
need
another
two
million
dollars
to
to
make
it
happen
and
and
to
be
able
to
move
forward.
E
Mayor,
I
think
it
would
be
great
if
we
at
some
point
give
a
presentation
to
the
full
council
sure.
A
On
the
memorial
and
how
it
will
look,
we
we
can
do
that
at
at
the
next
meeting.
I'd
love
to
I'd
love
to.
A
D
Well,
number
one:
I
think,
whatever
we
need
to
do
to
help
contribute
to
the
additional
funding
for
mother
emanuel.
We
need
to
do
to
do
that
and
the
point
that
you
just
made
me
are
about
ordering
supplies.
We
don't.
F
D
Miss
the
boat
on
on
that,
so,
let's,
let's
get
together
on
on
that
issue.
The
other
question
is
was
for
amy
amy.
The
golf
course
netting
is
the
tourism
revenue
can
be
applied,
for
that
can
can
that
tourism
revenues
also
be
applied
for
these
bathrooms.
We've
been
talking
about
earlier.
B
F
D
F
Yeah,
I
just
obviously
I
agree
with
all
that
with
mother
manual
councilman
gregory,
if
you're
still
listening,
I
knew
there
was
a
request
to
the
state:
did
the
state?
What
was
that?
I
know
they
came
through.
Did
they
come
through
it?
What
was
contribution
at
the
state
mean.
F
B
Okay,
so
capital
improvement
plan
five
year,
this
will
be
2023
to
27..
I
sent
it
to
you,
it's
it's
big.
You
know
our
our
capital
improvement
plan
is
pretty
pretty
huge,
so
I'm
just
I
was
just
focusing
on
the
newer
things
and
the
underfunded
items
that
we
needed
to
add
additional
funding
to.
We
had
to
add
3.5
million.
B
This
is
not
including
the
additional
funding
we
put
towards
drainage
projects
that
we
all
talked
about
earlier,
but
you
probably
remember,
might
hopefully
remember
those
I
could
send
them,
if
not
so
hugely
street
phase,
two
fire
station,
eight,
we
needed
all
of
those
these
projects
needed
additional
funding.
The
bears
ferd
creek
bridge.
That
is
only
half
of
what
that
needs.
B
We
had
discussed
using
arpa
funds
for
that,
so
that
would
come
later,
possibly
for
us
to
utilize
our
funds
for
the
other
half
of
what
it's
underfunded:
the
ashley
river
crossing
bridge,
charleston,
9,
firefighters,
memorial,
that's
what
we
are
I
had
talked
about
earlier.
I
needed
to
add
a
little
bit
because
of
the
change
in
scope
and
also
additional
cost,
but
that
is
also
hospitality,
money,
not
general
fund
and
then.
G
B
Little
bit
more
for
sony
field
improvements,
just
because
costs
you
know
are
increasing
everywhere,
so
that
was
3.5
million.
We
added
15
new
projects,
and
these
are
what
they
are
the
municipal
operations
complex.
That
would
be
what
replacing
milford
street
that's
what
that
is,
there's
a
lot
of
discussion
that
needs
to
be
had
about
that.
That's
somewhat
preliminary,
what
we're
trying
to
do
in
terms
of
fitting
everything
on
our
grace
site
and
how
we
would
have
to
do
that.
That's
that's
the
preliminary
cost
to
that,
depending
on
what
we
decide
to
do.
A
A
We
have
been
given
notice
by
the
way
by
the
development
team
out
there,
so
our
our
three-year
clock
has
officially
started
ticking
as
of
august,
one
that
they
are
requesting
us
to
to
go
ahead
and
move
off
of
milford
street
which,
if
you
all
know
the
condition
of
of
the
facilities
there
it's
time
for
us
to
do
this
and
get
off
of
milford
street.
A
But
anyway,
the
next
public
works,
meeting
or
or
immediately
thereafter,
we'll
have
a
edmond
and
jason
will
give
us
a
update
of
of
everything
we
know
about
the
project.
At
this
point.
B
So
public
service-
these
are
the
drainage
projects
that
we
added
the
newer
ones:
the
alberta,
long
lake,
the
central
park,
drainage
dupont,
wapoo
for
royal
lake
daughter
and
long
branch,
creek
and
then
west
bonnie
drainage
improvements.
But
then
you
know
that
we
also
added
additional
funding
for
other
projects
that
were
underfunded
as
well
or
that
were
progressing
to
the
next
level.
If
you
want
to
see
those
I
can
I
can.
B
We
have
the
bridge
point
ecological
park
and
that's
partially
grant
funded
as
well.
B
This
is
the
actual
other
side
to
it,
because
some
of
it's
grand
then
some
of
it
would
be
what
we
would
need
to
do
for
the
park
side
of
it
ourselves
and
that's
what
this
project
is
brittle
bank
park
playground
improvements,
the
charleston,
nine
fire
fighter
memorial
that
whole
project
was
not
on
the
capital
improvement
plan
before
we
had
had
money
set
aside,
but
it
wasn't
ready
to
get
started,
so
it
wasn't
on
the
plan,
that's
the
entire
cost
of
that
project.
B
That's
now
on
the
plan
mulberry
park
improvements,
we
do
have
a
hundred
thousand
dollar
contribution
towards
that.
So
ours,
our
portion
of
that
is
350
000.
park
shore
run
park
renovation.
That
would
be
kecko
ball.
Of
course,.
G
B
D
Thank
you,
mr
mayor,
so
amy,
I
think
on
the
previous
slide,
and
then
the
subsequent
slides
show
that
we
don't
need
to
spend
all
this
money
in
in
this
particular
fiscal
year.
You've
got
this
broken
down
and
spread
out
over
over
time.
It's
a
really
important
thing
to
us
to
keep
in
mind
as
these
projects,
because
it's
not
going
to
be
completed
in
a
year's
time,
and
some
of
these
things
are
pretty
extensive.
D
The
brittle
bank
park
have
we've
been
talking
to
the
folks
over
at
the
river
dogs,
because
there
are
some
issues:
some
plans
of
expanding
beyond
the
outfield
of
the
joe
into
the
brillbank
park.
Have
we
had
any
discussions
with
folks
about
that.
B
We
have
not
council
members
shade
not
recently
anyway.
I
know
that
that
is
out
there,
but
we're
right
now
trying
to
negotiate
that
the
one
the
the
major
league
baseball
renovation
requirement,
that's
out
there,
that
we
need
to
do
and
there's
some
other
projects
that
we
have
over
there.
That
need
to
be
done
for
just
the
assessment
that
we
had
done
a
couple
years
ago
that
we're
still
working
on,
but
we
have
not
had
discussions
in
this
part,
because
this
is
mostly
our
playground
improvements,
and
I
can
let
jason
talk
about
that.
B
D
Maybe
so,
but
I
know
that
they
are
very
interested
in
wanting
to
create
a
different
type
of
venue
over
there
outside
of
the
ballpark
itself,
and
I-
and
I
agree
with
what
you
said
about
the
park-
playground
improvements,
but
there's
this.
I
think
we
can
walk
and
chew
gum.
At
the
same
time
with
us,
it
may
be
worthwhile
having
a
further
conversation
to
see
if
we
can
tie
in
to
what
they're
looking
at-
and
I
know
we're
talking
about
the
mlb
improvements
that
are
required
of
that.
D
B
A
G
Thank
you,
mr
mayor.
I
just
had
a
quick
question
if
this
is
going
to
be
covered
later
in
the
presentation,
please
let
me
know,
but
I
I
understand
we
were
able
to
locate
some
additional
funding
for
the
windermere
basin
project
and
I
just
wanted
to
know
if
that
kind
of
fits
overall.
B
That
is
on
our
capital
improvement
plan.
It's
just
not
a
new
project.
That's
why
I'm
not
highlighting
it
but,
like
I
said
when
we
get
through
this,
if
you
want
me
to
pull
up
the
whole
entire
capital
improvement
plan
and
we
can
go
through
it,
we
can.
We
can
do
that.
So
you
can
see
everything.
That's
on
there.
It's
just
four
pages
long.
I
didn't
think
you
wanted
me
to
go
through.
A
Okay,
so,
and-
and
I
do
want
to
mention
council
member
shade-
yeah-
I've
had
discussions
with
with
the
river
dogs
folks
about
this
esplanade
that
would
go
around
the
back
the
outfield
and
how
it
might
connect
with
brittle
bank
and
and
I'm
it
it's
a
bit
ambitious,
but
I
think
it'd
be
wonderful,
but
I'll
be
honest
with
you.
A
The
more
immediate
thing
we
got
to
figure
out
is
the
improvements
that
they
want
to
the
stadium
itself,
just
to
qualify
for
the
new
major
league,
baseball
requirements
to
stay
in
business
so
and
and
that
ain't
that
ain't
cheap.
So
we
we
we
gotta,
we
gotta
take
care
of
that.
First
and
foremost
before
we
talk
about
adding
you
know
more
bells
and
whistles,
so
that
that
might
be
something
we
talk
about
later
council
member
parker.
I
see
your
hand
up
again.
C
Yes,
thank
you,
mr
mayor,
and
I
apologize
if
I'm
getting
ahead
or
to
going
backwards,
but
unless
there's
another
page
you
know,
I
don't
see
anything.
A
I
think
there
is
another
page:
okay,
give
us
one
more
page
and
then
see
see
if
we
cover
what
you're
looking
for
okay
amy,
you
want
to
go
to
the
next
page.
Well,.
B
H
Do
you
all
want
a
brief
synopsis
of
the
brittlebank
park,
playground
issues,
sure
so
brittlebank
park,
that
playground
was
constructed
in
1994
as
the
city's
first
and
only
fully
accessible
playground,
location,
it's
a
destination
location,
it's
central
to
the
entire
city
limits
people
meet
up
there
every
day
it
gets
school
group
use,
it
gets
family
use.
It
gets
lots
of
incredible
use.
We've
con
we've
received
complaints
for
multiple
years
about
the
condition
of
that
equipment,
and
we've
done
an
incredible
job.
H
In
the
past
10
years,
replacing
playground
equipment,
we
have
over
50
locations
with
playground,
equipment,
much
of
it
aging
and
with
y'all's
help
and
the
help
of
the
budget
office.
We
have
done
incredible
work,
replacing
playground,
equipment,
brittlebank
park.
Playground
is
the
next
one
on
the
list
and
to
be
quite
honest
with
everyone,
it
has
been
frankenstein
together,
it's
difficult
to
get
parts
for
20
year
old
playground,
equipment
very
expensive
to
buy
replacement
parts.
H
It's
been
vandalized
and
it's
just
beyond
its
useful
service
life,
and
it
could
be
a
wonderful
location
for
children
with
all
abilities
to
come
together
and
play.
And
again,
it's
been
on
our
list
for
many
years
now.
So
that's
that's
kind
of
the
global
description
of
what
the
needs
are
there
and
it
and
it
does
take
into
consideration
all
of
the
future
planning
and
concepts
not
only
from
the
river
dogs.
We
went
through
a
very
robust
threat
process
with
many
many
groups,
and
it
includes
consideration
for
any
future
army
corps
wall
as
well.
H
B
So
these
are
additional
additional
new
funded
projects
that
aren't
on
the
cip,
because
they're
smaller
projects
that
we
wouldn't
typically
include
on
the
capital
improvement
plan.
We
have
the
charleston
tennis
center,
the
maybach
tennis
center.
That's
the
lighting
and
the
the
requests
that
we
had
for
lighting
and
such
the
james
island
recreation
center,
shade
structure,
pemberton
to
kind
of
start,
repairing
and
get
getting
going
on
that
st
julian
divine
dance
for
bus
ashley.
Revitalization
commission
asked
for
signage.
B
C
Yes,
thank
you.
Well,
that's
great,
that's
exciting.
I
know
there's
much
and
I
was
happy
to
see
you
know
park
shore,
the
the
improvements
over
there
look
to
be
about
a
million
and
I'll
be
honest.
I
was
there
just
last
weekend
or
just
this
past
weekend.
So
that's
certainly
much
needed,
but
I
know
I've
spoken
with
mr
kronsberg
a
little
about
the
shade
structure,
but
we
also
know
that
that's
an
aging
pool
that
was
part
of
the
issue.
C
Again,
I
won't
get
into
specifics
on
that,
but
what
I
wanted
to
ask
about
was
when
and
or
if
and
when
will
this
committee
or
other
committees
you
know
maybe
recreation
committee
talk
speak.
You
know
start
talking
about
bond
referendums,
so
we
can
get.
You
know
some.
I
mean
a
hundred
thousand
two
hundred
thousand
dollars.
We
know
that's
not
enough
to
do
what
we
need,
what
we
really
need
to
do
at
james
at
the
james
island,
recreation
center
or
at
stephen
washington,
or
you
know,
at
westchester
I
mean
westchester
looks
great.
C
I'm
headed
there
in
a
few
minutes,
but
you
know
we're
going
to
need
more
than
200
000.
So
when
will
this
committee
or
the
recreation
committee,
when
is
a
good
time
to
talk
about
a
bond
referendum.
C
A
Good
good
question:
I
you
know
we
had
our
parks
and
rec
master
plan
come
forward.
Yeah.
C
A
I
really
think
personally,
the
appropriate
place
to
take
that
back
to
next
is
back
to
the
recreation
commission
for
them
to
really
come
up
with
the
list
of
the
major
improvements
like
swimming
pools.
You
you
talk,
15,
20
million
dollars
to
do
a
swimming
pool
facility.
A
We're
go
we're
gonna
have
to
bond
that,
and
but
we
need
to
hear
from
the
recreation
commission
committee
really
what
their
priorities
are
and
from
that
parks
and
recreation
master
plan.
That's
that's
that's
my
sense
of
it.
A
Yep
council
member
shade
yep
amy:
can
you
go
back.
D
Go
ahead
and
maybe
maybe
you
were
gonna
point
that
out,
but
on
the
charleston
tennis
center
and
maybe
tennis
center.
B
B
D
D
You
were
kind
of
fast.
I
didn't
quite
kiss
that
and
in
councilwoman
parker's
question.
I
think
that
one
thing
that
we
just
need
to
be
aware
of-
and
I
agree
with
her
about
the
the
referendum,
but
there's
a
timing
issue
on
that.
So
if
we
go
to
if
either
if
we
tie
it
into
an
election
cycle,
we've
got
to
get
that
on
the
books
well
in
advance
to
make
it
in
part
of
an
election
cycle.
D
I
don't
know
if
we've
already
missed
a
vote
on
that
for
this
coming
november,
but
we
may
have,
but
if
we're
going
to
get
it
on
for
next
november,
we're
going
to
get
the
ball
rolling
on
that
as
as
well.
So
I'm
glad
councilman
parker
brought
that
up,
but
we
do
have
a
time
crunch
to
some
level
of
that,
so
we're
going
to
do
what
we're
going
to
do
pretty
quickly
yeah.
I.
D
B
B
E
A
We
want
to
have
a
defined
priority
list
that
we're
asking
the
voters
to
approve.
If
we're
going
to
do
it
that
way,.
D
It
sounds
like
this
a
long
way
off
for
more
than
a
year,
but
you've
got
to
get
it
on
the
books
at
a
certain
time
frame
statutorily
and
you've
got
to
do
it.
Councilmember,
mcgregor
and
you've
been
talking
about
prioritize
and
identify
those
projects.
You
want
the
money
to
go
for.
So
it's
really
not
that
that
much
of
a
window
and
to
councilman
parker's
point
we
need
to
get
cracking
on
that
sooner
sooner
than
later,.
A
All
right,
well,
council,
councilmember
sheila,
is
here
and
put
it
on
the
next
agenda.
Council.
E
We're
currently
trying
to
to
move
up
our
recreation
committee
meeting
we're
trying
to
make
make
that
happen
before
the
next
meeting,
but
so
that
we'll
have
a
little
bit
more
information
on
this.
So
right,
we
planned
on
having
it
the
last
time
and
tom
o'rourke
wasn't
able
to
join
us
at
the
last
one.
Something
came
up,
and
so
we're
trying
to
reschedule
that
recreation
committee
for
a
different
date
than
what's
the
standard
date
that
we've
gone
to,
but
we're
trying
to
move
that
up
and
get
that
taken
care
of.
F
Thank
you
in
light
of
referendums
for
projects
I
understand
for
parks,
but
let
me
ask
amy
when
it
comes
to
projects
like
you
know:
the
public
service
building
or
the
public
works
building
that
we
need
to
build.
Will
that
eventually
need
to
raise
money
for
public
works
through
a
referendum?
B
G
E
B
What
type
of
bond
we
get,
but
we
don't
have
to
do
a
referendum.
We
would
have
to
do
well,
we'll
have
some
other
additional
funding
that
we
will
need
to
have
because
we
do
have
tiff
funding
out
of
the
the
negative.
The
second
tranche
of
that
is
supposed
to
be
for
our
public
works
facility.
However,
like
right
now,
we
only
have
about
30
million
dollars
that
we'll
be
able
to
utilize
towards
that.
So
we
we
have
a
big
gap
in
funding,
so
we
definitely
will
need
additional
funds.
F
F
I
know
those
are
different
parts
of
money,
but
instead
of
looking
at
them
in
an
isolated
way
before
we
get
tapped
out,
I
think
we
need
to
look
at.
We
know.
We've
got
some
bigger
projects
out
there
that
we're
just
kind
of
kicking
down
the
road
and,
what's
you
know
the
public
works
project?
We
got
what
three
years
less
than
three
years
before
we're
supposed
to
be
out
of
there.
Mr
me,
that's
correct
yeah.
So.
B
It
started
august
1st
and
we
have
public
safety
projects
as
well,
so.
E
A
Well,
it's
a
10-year
plan,
councilmember
and
so
and
and
some
of
the
items
that
are
on
the
plan,
we're
funding
here
tonight
or
with
future
approvals.
I
mean
we
we're
we're
pulling
out
of
the
things
that
that
we
can
kind
of
digest
so
to
speak
and
handle
on
a
on
a
without
having
a
bond
going
forward
the
things
that
have
kind
of
risen
to
the
top
of
the
priorities
among
staff
and
recommendations.
A
So
you
know
the
the
full
plan
over
10
years.
We
just
can't
do
it
all
at
once,
but
the
things
that
we
and
we
you
know
it
was
like
75
million
dollars
right.
So
so
we
got
to
pick
and
choose
the
things
that
we
want
to
get
started.
First
on
that
that
have
bigger
tickets
that
we're
going
to
need
bonding,
but
we're
trying
to
work
in
these
other
things,
as
you
just
saw
in
the
last
two
pages
there
were.
A
There
were
a
number
of
park
items
here
that
there
they
were
all
on
that
parking
master
plan
list.
But
you
know
these,
are,
I
wouldn't
say,
they're
low
dollar
things,
because
some
of
them
are
half
million
dollars
and
hundreds
of
thousands
of
dollars
is
a
lot
of
money.
But
it's
not
like
20
million
dollars
for,
for
you
know,
aquatic.
B
B
Restrooms
and
hall,
2
lights
and
restrooms,
and
then
there's
a
sumar
development,
and
then
I
put
the
golf
course
restaurants
here
because
we
have
drafted.
You
know
we
talked
about
the
mou
with
the
friends
they
have
that
to
review,
and
that
was
to
kind
of
formalize
our
partnership
for
future
projects.
So
they
do
have
that
mou
to
review
and
send
comments
back.
So
we
we
have
been
working
on
some
things
and
then
obviously
we'll
need
to
have
additional
discussions
regarding
this
project.
So
that's
really
all
I
had
for
projects
anyway,.
B
A
That's
that's
a
big
list
to
digest.
Did
you
did
y'all
that
went
out
in
in
an
email
to
everyone.
B
A
Yes,
could
I
respectfully
in
the
interest
of
time,
just
ask
some
if
anybody
had
any
specific
question
on
that
list,
or
I'm
certainly
agreeable
at
the
next
meeting
to
to
go
through
the
the
whole
list
if
y'all
want
to
do,
but
I
I
know
that
could
take
us
a
well
over
an
hour
just
to
go
through
the
list.
It's
four
pages
long.
B
I
think
councilmember
wearing
before
what
we've
done
too,
is
kind
of
pulled
out
all
the
west
ashley
projects
for
y'all.
Just
so
you
could
see
those
would
that
be
helpful
if
we,
if
we
did
that,
and
so
we
could,
I
could
send
that
and
we
could
discuss
it
if
you
need
to
if
you.
F
A
All
right
any
other
thoughts,
suggestions
on
any
of
the
capital
projects
that
we've
talked
about,
how
how
did
go
back
one
more
page,
these
these
are
kind
of
brand
new
ones,
again,
they're,
not
they're,
not
big
ticket
items,
but
but
I
think
it
meets
a
number
of
needs.
The
lighting
we've
talked
about
some
improvements
to
james
island
rec
center.
A
The
the
money
for
fort
pemberton
is
really
just
technically
opened
the
doors
you
know
the
the
work
has
has
asked
for
some
funds
before
so,
and
the
hundred
thousand
dollars
for
lake
daughter,
council
member
sheila
is
kind
of
putting
back
some
money
that
that
we
had
allocated
like
council
member
waring
mentioned
we
had.
A
We
had
a
allocated
a
few
years
ago
when
we
we,
we
used
it
during
covet
and
now
we're
trying
to
put
put
that
back
so
and
then
the
requests
that
council
member
greg
had
for
for
for
daniel
island
for
the
for
that
council
member
waring
mentioned.
A
So
I
I
think
it's
a
nice
kind
of
comprehensive
list,
if
you
add
it
to
the
other
ones
that
we
already
had
on
the
on
the
page
prior
to
this
and
all
the
drainage
improvements
that
we
had
had
added
recently
so
and
and
to
tell
you
the
truth,
we
probably
are
past
capacity
on
on
there's
only
so
many
projects
our
staff
can
handle
at
one
time
right
jason,
but
we
might
be
pushing
them
to
the
limit,
as
we
often
do.
A
F
You
know
we've
had,
I
think,
1.5
million
parked
for
the
wpal
property
that
was
bought.
You
know
actually
during
mayor
rowley's
administration
and
then
and
then
doing
yours,
a
million
and
a
half
was
put
aside
and
somehow
that's
got
to
make
the
list.
You
know
I
have
a
client
that
that
actually
does
and
I'm
throwing
this
out
for
information
not
to
recommend
client
but
who
actually
builds
big
docks
and
tried
to
cover
big
docks
with
basically
about
a
hundred
dollars
a
foot.
F
Now
it's
150
a
foot
and
you
know
that
park
is
going
to
include
a
pretty
long
walkway,
getting
out
to
eventually
a
pear
head
on
the
stoner.
F
So,
as
do
we
actually
have
that
on
the
project
list
to
at
least
get
a
get
out
there
to
get
some
ideas
on
what
that
product
will
look
like,
so
we
can
begin
to
bid
something
out.
B
F
A
H
That's
right,
so
just
so,
if
everybody
remembers,
we
did
already
go
through
the
selection
committee
process
for
design
services
and
kind
of
got
way
laid
by
multiple
projects
and
the
pandemic.
I
am,
and
everything.
F
H
So
what
we're
doing
is
we've
we've
reached
back
out
to
the
consultants
and
we're
renegotiating
that
design
contract
in
anticipation
of
kicking
that
project
off
in
the
fall
for
the
full
design
of
the
project.
F
Okay
and
one
last
thing
I
see
miss
parker
hand
up
there.
One
last
thing
I've
done
on
the
carl
richardson
park.
I
know
it's
rounding
the
curve
on
being
finished,
hopefully
within
the
next
I
guess
30
to
45
days.
F
Are
they
any
funds
left
in
that
contract
to
be
able
to
anything
left
over.
E
C
A
Governor's
park-
oh
maybe
20
years
ago,
15
years
ago-
maybe.
C
And
can
you
tell
me
when,
when
the
the
james,
mr
cronsberg,
the
james
island
recreation
playground
equipment,
because
I
don't
see
anything
like
that
in
the
budget,
I'm
looking
at
the.
H
H
Equipment
yeah,
so
we
replaced
the
front
equipment
at
james
allen.
Rec
center
in
2000.
Wait.
Sorry,
I
have
to
give
me
a
minute.
I
think
it
was
16
or
17..
We
replaced
it
in
2020.
We
replaced
the
equipment
out
front.
The
the
equipment
in
the
rear
still
has
useful
service
life
left
in
it.
That
equipment
was
constructed
in
2004.
H
B
H
So
basically,
it's
in
our
maintenance
budget
and
what
we've
been
trying
to
do
for
the
past
10
years
is
a
full
cycle
of
playground,
equipment
replacement.
So
it's
in
our
playground,
maintenance,
budget
and
facilities
maintenance.
So
typically
we
try
to
get
at
least
one,
possibly
two
replacements
done
a
year.
Of
course,
we've
been
sidetracked
by
the
pandemic
and
and
the
budget
was
but
that's
been,
the
goal
for
about
the
last
10
years
and
we've
done
a
considerable
amount
of
work
on
that.
C
Okay-
and
I
know
I
can't
beg
yours-
can't
be
choosers,
but
I
know-
and
I
know
the
harvard
harborview
fort
johnson
one
is
sort
of
on
the
list,
but
you
know
we
have
steven
washington
too.
As
that
playground,
equipment
and
the
james
island
rock
equipment
has
you
know,
duct
tape
on
the
slide,
so
I
just
want
to
put
that
on
the
radar.
C
So
I
I'm
that's.
Why
I'm
open?
I
really
want
to
get
started
talking
about
the
bond
referendum,
the
baseball
fields,
like
I
said
I
was
at
park
shore
and
I'm
headed
to
westchester
in
just
a
few
minutes
and
our
baseball
fields
are,
I
mean
almost
barely
usable.
C
You
know
they're
they're,
just
dirt
and
grass,
so
I
just
think
we
really
need
to
whether
that's
a
budget
item
or
again,
a
more
of
a
parks,
maintenance
project
and
something
that
I
really
just
need
to
talk
with
council
member
sheila
and
just
get
back
on
our
that
committee.
I'll
do
that.
But
you
know
we
have
private
private
partnerships
that
I
think
you
know
they're
already
helping
improve
some
of
these
things.
So
if
we
can
find
a
way
to
do
that,
I
think
we
should
do
it.
H
And
just
make
one
mention
that,
with
all
of
the
staffing
discussions
going
on,
the
parks
department
is
about
30
short
on
our
approved,
budgeted
staffing,
and
we
are
at
a
pivotal
point
right
now
and
being
able
to
keep
up
with
our
park
maintenance.
I
know
that's
not
what
we're
talking
about,
but
I
just
need
to
get
plugs
in
whenever
I
can,
because
it
seems
like
everybody
else.
Does:
okay.
E
Councilman
parker,
are
you
said
you're
going
to
westchester?
Is
that
something
that
I
should
be
a
part
of.
B
So
budgets
from
departments
were
due
on
july,
8th
and
we're
working
through
all
the
department
sound
now
and
formalizing
the
list.
You
know
that
big
fun
list
that
we
go
through
with
you
all
every
year,
councilmember
sheila
will
be
new
to
this.
So
it's
a
lot
of
fun,
it's
a
great
spreadsheet
and
then
we
I
sent
out
a
lot
of
media
requests
to
kind
of
get
us
through
the
rest
of
this
budget
process.
B
I
hope,
anyway,
this
week,
which
a
lot
of
you
have
have
already
accepted
those
meetings,
the
two
meetings
that
we
always
go.
We
go
through
all
the
departmental
budgets
with
the
department
heads
those
are
scheduled
for
september
14th
and
the
28th
I
haven't
talked
with
department
heads
yet
just
kind
of
figure
out
who's
going
to
go
on,
which
dates
so
I'll
work
on
that
and
I'll.
Let
you
know
which
departments
are
on
which
dates
just
so.
You
know
that,
and
that
is
it,
but
before
that,
I
think
we
have
a.
B
We
have
a
meeting
on
the
8th
of
september,
so
we'll
start
we'll
kind
of
go
through
that
list
of
the
all
of
the
requests.
Obviously,
we
probably
won't
have
time
to
go
through
all
of
it,
but
then
that
will
give
you
some
time
to
kind
of
look
through
it.
Before
we
meet
with
the
department
heads
on
the
14th
and
the
28th.
B
The
other
thing
I
wanted
to
mention
too,
when
we
were
talking
about
because
the
recreation
committee
with
the
projects
and
some
of
the
things
we
might
have
funded
on
the
right
parts
and
rec
master
plan.
So
when
we
go
jason,
we
can
identify
those
things
that
we're
already
covering
when
we
come
to
recreation
committee-
yes,
okay,
so
we
can
do
that.
So
you
see
what
what
progress
we've
made
so
far
on
that
list.
