I
B
B
Okay,
well
y'all.
I
think
we'll
come
back
for
a
repeated
invocation.
Then
it
looked
like
they
dropped
off
completely.
It
might
be
our
wi-fi
service
in
city,
council
chambers,
the
bandwidth.
B
So
if
I
may
well,
maybe
we'll
give
that
one
one
moment
and
see
if
they
sign
back
on.
What
do
you
think,
let's.
B
Yep
well,
while
we're
waiting
for
them,
I'd
like
to
welcome
melanie
alston
and
miss
joyce
taylor,
who
are
with
us
this
evening.
I
see
them
now
on
my
zoomed
screen
here
they
are
the
granddaughter
and
the
daughter
of
miss
martha
lou
gadson,
who
passed
away
recently,
and
you
all
may
know
that
joyce
is
the
wife
of
a
former
deputy
chief
jerome
taylor
is
jerome
with
you
as
well.
M
B
I
haven't
seen
council
member
sheily
and
wearing
come
back
on
yet
so,
if
y'all
will
bear
with
me,
I'd
like
to
proceed
with
our
first
item
on
our
agenda,
our
resolution
in
remembrance
of
martha
lou
gadsden,
whereas
the
city
wishes
to
recognize
one
of
south
carolina's,
most
well-known
and
distinguished
citizens,
martha
gertrude
beulah,
simmons
gadsden,
martha
lu,
miss
martha
who
was
born
to
late,
mr
joseph
simmons
and
the
late
mrs
lily
may
walker
fields
simmons
back
in
1930..
B
She
was
born
in
manning
educated
in
many
training
schools,
but
later
moved
to
charleston.
She
was
introduced
to
the
culinary
scene
as
a
server
at
the
lanson
house,
which
was
the
only
full-service
restaurant
operated
in
charleston
by
african
americans
for
african
americans
and
after
working
in
numerous
eateries
around
town,
martha
lou
started
her
own
business
and
opened
the
famous
martha
lou's
kitchen
1983
at
the
age
of
53..
B
She
started
just
selling
hot
dogs
and
sodas
and
later
transformed
it
into
the
iconic
restaurant
that
everyone,
including
myself
loved.
She
was
a
pioneer
who
received
countless
accolades
for
a
restaurant
described
in
the
new
york
times
as
a
temple
for
low
country
cuisine
and
bowl.
Not
petite
magazine
as
a
worthy
of
a
pilgrimage
is
featured
in
many
articles.
Tv
shows
and
brought
a
national
spotlight
to
gulligici
cuisine.
B
Martha
liu
was
a
faithful
servant
and
member
of
trinity
ame
church
for
more
than
60
years.
Martha
lou
leaves
behind
eight
children,
including
miss
taylor,
as
I
introduced
to
you
and
her
siblings,
and
she
left
19
grandchildren,
including
melody
alston
who's
with
us
this
evening,
37
great
grandchildren,
five
great
great
grandchildren,
family
friends,
loved
ones
and
certainly
customers
who
cherished
and
honored
her
legacy.
B
Martha
lou
was
well-loved.
Charlestonian
has
left
an
unforgettable
mark
on
the
city
of
charleston.
She
earned
the
respect,
admiration
and
high
regard
of
all
who
came
into
her
restaurant
and
who
knew
her.
We
have
sustained
a
great
loss,
and
I
therefore
resolve
on
behalf
of
city
council
and
all
our
citizens,
to
extend
to
to
to
y'all
her
family.
This
expression
of
our
sincere
regret
for
your
loss,
but
know
that
you'll
be
consoled
by
the
memories
of
her
incredible
life
and
achievements,
so
god
bless
and
and
miss
taylor
or
ms
alston.
B
If
you
all
would
like
to
share
any
remarks
we're
so
we
celebrate
her
life
but
share
your
sadness
and
her
loss.
N
I'm
martha
lou's
daughter,
joyce
taylor
and,
on
behalf
of
our
family
members
and
close
friends
and
everybody
in
charleston
that
had
the
opportunity
to
eat
some
of
michael's
food.
I
know
you
had
a
good
time
so,
on
behalf
of
the
family,
I
just
like
to
say
thank
you.
My
mother
lived
91
years
and
that's
a
legend
so
we'll
go
down
in
history
as
martin
luther's
children,
so
charleston.
N
Thank
you.
Thank
you.
Thank
you.
Thank
you
for
what
you
have
done.
Thank
you
for
staying
along
with
her
and
listening
to
her
little
funny
words
during
the
time
that
you
had
to
wait
on
your
food.
She
she
wanted
to
make
sure
that
everything
was
right,
so
I'm
gonna
miss
her
and
we
all
are
gonna
miss
her,
but
god
has
his
wing
and
she
lived
a
good
life
and
I'd
like
to
say
thank
you
to
you
all.
B
Well,
you're
more
than
one
god,
god
bless
you
and
and
thank
you
miss
olson
that
you
want
to
share
anything
or.
G
B
Oh
you're
welcome
so
well
designed
and
deputy
chief
taylor
jerome,
always
good
to
see
you
and
thank
you
for
being
with
us
this
evening
as
well.
Thank
you,
sir.
B
Well,
god
bless
so
we
have
yes,
yes,
councilmember
gregory.
J
O
J
Alone
she
will
be
missed,
but
I
think
mayor
that
we
need
to
sit
in
as
a
council.
J
While
I
think
a
proclamation
is
great,
I
think
it
would
be
good
if
we
look
into
trying
to
put
a
marker
where
martha
lou's
restaurant
was
so
that
people
will
forever
know
her
contributions
to
the
cuisine
of
their
city
mirror.
So
I
think
that's
at
some
point.
We
need
to
look
in
to
see
whether
or
not
we
can
get
a
state
marker
put
in
that
area.
I
know
the
land
is
so,
but
I'm
sure
that
something
would
allow
us
to
do
something
like
that
mayor
and
I
think
we
should
look
into
it.
K
On
mute,
I
think,
costume
greg.
We
heard
what
I
was
going
to
say
because
he
said
the
same
thing
I
was
going
to
suggest,
but
so
far
as
mafia
is
concerned,
I
go
back
from
miss
marpalu
back
from
the
latin
house
time
back
into
oh
wow
60's
in
the
50s,
and
you
know
that's
when
I
first
met
marpalu
and
alice
at
the
time
giving
me
the
good
frank
splitter
I've
been
hot
dogs.
K
If
you
make
and
anytime
I
go
in
there,
they
give
me
two
hot
dogs
on
the
bun
because
they
know
me
they
call
me
bobby.
That's
all
they
know
me
as
bobby
come
on
in
bobby,
come
on
and
bobby
you
know,
and
that's
all
she
always
called
me.
She
never
know
me
no
robert,
just
bobby
so
I'm
gonna
miss
her
and
I
go
by
and
she's
come
by.
I
haven't
seen
you
in
a
long
time.
I
said:
I'm
still
here
come
by
and
see
me
some
more.
K
I
saw
all
right
I
will
do,
but
I'm
going
to
miss
her
because
we
go
way
back
way
way
back
and
I
can
remember
those
times.
We
all
all
have
a
nice
time
and
joyce
is
there.
I
remember
joyce
joyce.
We
came
up
together
in
church
together
and
happened
back
in
the
50s,
so
you
know
I
go
back
with
the
family
and
when
I
heard
about
mr
martial,
it
kind
of
hit
me
a
little
bit.
K
You
know
because
I
didn't
see
her
at
that
point,
because
I
know
when
she
called
me
when
the
restaurant
was
closing
and
I
was
working
with
her
and
she
said
bobby.
No,
I'm
a
little
old.
Now,
I'm
just
going
to
let
it
go,
I'm
not
going
to
try
to
do
nothing
else.
It's
okay!
It's
your
call!
Whatever
you
want
me
to
do.
K
She
said
no,
no
just
leave
it
alone
and
that's
the
last
time
I
spoke
with
her
at
the
time
and
she
closed
the
restaurant,
so
she'll
be
missed,
but
we're
going
to
try
to
do
something
else.
As
councilman
gregory
stated
and
we'll
work
with
that,
because
that's
all
all
that's
the
district
I
represent
so
we'll
try
to
get
something
going,
and
god.
P
Yes,
sir
mayor,
I
just
wanted
to
say
as
a
fellow
restaurant
owner,
I
just
want
to
acknowledge
the
hard
work
that
it
takes
to
to
get
to
30-something
years
here
in
charleston,
and
I
also
want
to
just
to
say
for
the
folks
that
do
not
know
and
kind
of
look
at
charleston's
food
culture.
P
Martha
lou
is
was
a
trailblazer
and
the
work
and
the
food
speaks
for
itself
and
there
was
a
there's,
a
new
york
times
column.
I
read
this
past
weekend
and
this
to
me.
P
B
You
yeah
so
so
next
and
I,
by
the
way
I'll
announce
that
we're
still
working
on
getting
council
members,
griffin,
shealy
and
wearing
connected
again.
Oh,
I
see
councilmember
shealy
coming
online
now,
so
we
must.
We
must
have
gotten
that
result.
They're
coming
back
in.
B
All
right,
so
I
was
going
to
come
back
to
the
half
of
your
invocation,
but
we'll
still
come
back
to
you
for
that.
I
must
admit
to
you,
since
the
invocation
got
in
interrupted
us
there.
I
forgot
to
for
us
to
jointly
pledge
allegiance
to
the
flag.
So
let's
do
that
at
this
time
the
flag
is
right
over
my
shoulder.
If
you
please
join
me,
we'll
pledge
allegiance,
I
pledge
allegiance
to
the.
E
B
Thank
you,
so
I'm
going
to
continue
on
and
this
time
we'll
move
to
the
proclamation
declaring
april
child
abuse
prevention
month
and
joining
us
is
beverly
hardin
who's,
the
ceo
of
carolina
youth
development
center
and
beverly
hutchison.
I
believe
she's
with
us
also
this
evening.
B
She's
director
of
development
of
marketing
for
d,
norton,
child
advocacy
center
and
the
proclamation
reads,
whereas
children
are
vital
to
our
future
success,
prosperity
and
quality
of
life
as
a
city,
state
and
nation,
and
all
children
deserving
of
safe,
stable,
nurturing
homes
and
communities
that
help
to
foster
their
healthy
growth
and
development
in
any
community.
Children
are
among
the
most
vulnerable
citizens
and
that's
why
child
abuse
and
neglect
must
be
considered
a
community
responsibility,
as
it
has
the
power
to
affect
the
community's
existing
and
future
quality
of
life.
B
Whereas
the
d
norton
lowcountry
children's
center
serves
the
charleston
community
by
providing
a
one-stop
location
for
services
provided
to
families
and
children
in
need
and
carolina
youth
development
center
cydc
provides
a
low
country
with
support
resources
and
is
committed
to
preventing
child
abuse
by
offering
a
continuum
of
services
to
treat
the
whole
family.
I
urge
all
citizens,
community
agencies,
faith
groups,
medical
facilities,
elected
leaders,
businesses
to
continue
to
expand
their
participation
in
efforts
that
support
families,
prevent
cases
of
child
abuse
and
thereby
strengthen
our
community
in
which
we
live.
B
Therefore,
I'm
john
jay
tekkenberg,
mayor
of
the
city
of
charleston,
we
proclaim
april
2021
as
child
abuse,
awareness
and
prevention
month
here
in
the
city
of
charleston,
and
just
the
other
day
we
we
we
planted
pinwheels,
which
are
a
symbol
of
raising
the
awareness
of
child
abuse,
because
they
are
somewhat
of
a
symbol
of
the
fun
that
children
ought
to
be
having
a
child's
life
should
be
dedicated
to
having
fun
and
learning
and
opportunities
not
being
abused
and
suffering
through
child
abuse.
B
So
we
raise
awareness
this
month
and
now,
if
I
could
call
on.
S
Yes,
sir,
thank
you,
mr
mayor,
and
thank
you
so
much
to
the
council
for
making
this
a
priority
and
making
this
important
and
you're
exactly
right.
I
wish
I
had
my
pinwheel.
I
don't
know
why.
I
didn't
think
of
that.
I
should
have
brought
my
pinwheel,
but
you
know
our
kids
should
be
laughing
and
playing
and
having
fun
and
and
mayor
you
well
know.
Cydc
has
been
around
since
1790..
S
We
opened
our
doors
as
the
first
municipal
orphanage
to
give
kids
who
had
no
place
to
go
no
safe
place
to
go
a
home
and
230
years
we've
been
serving
children
in
charleston
who
didn't
have
anywhere
else
to
call
home,
and
we
do
that
again
today.
Today
our
mission
is
getting
bigger.
Our
mission
continues
to
expand,
and
not
only
are
we
working
to
provide
safe
haven
and
healing
to
children,
who've
experienced
trauma,
we're
also
working
to
reunite
them
and
to
heal
the
problems
in
the
families
that
led
to
the
disbursement
to
begin
with.
S
Most
importantly,
we're
working
very
hard
with
partners
like
d
norton
to
to
make
sure
that
we
can
prevent
the
separation
from
from
happening
to
begin
with
cybc.
Just
recently
celebrate
celebrated
the
grand
opening
of
our
family
support
center
and
the
whole
intention
of
the
family
support
center
is
to
be
able
to
reach
back
into
the
homes
and
and
say
parents.
S
Let's
help
you
before
things
get
to
a
point
where
they
can't
be
fixed
and-
and
it's
just
real
important
to
us-
that
we
have
partners
like
the
council
and
partners
like
you,
mr
mayor,
who
are
committed
to
protecting
our
children,
protecting
our
families,
healing
our
children,
healing
our
families,
and
we
thank
you
so
much
for
taking
time
to
honor
this
important
work
today.
B
Thank
you
beverly,
and
I
can't
see
everybody
at
once
on
this
hollywood
squares
here,
beverly,
hutchison
or
beverly.
Are
you
with
us
as
well,
or
anyone
with
the
d
norton.
B
Center,
we'll
just
know
that
they
are
our
partners
as
well
and
do
remarkable
advocacy
work
for
for
children
in
our
community,
and
we
thank
you
thank
them
for
their
continued
work
as
well.
Thank
you,
beverly
for
being
with
us.
So
next
we
have
a
proclamation.
This
is
a
month
of
proclamation
shall
bear
with
us.
Fair
housing
month
is,
is
this
month,
and
I
see
oath
of
metals
meadows
with
us
tonight
and
otha
is
george
with
us
as
well.
Yes,.
B
Okay,
george
bresnahan
is
with
us
as
well
and
we'll
celebrate
some
something
about
his
achievements
in
just
a
minute.
But
here's
a
proclamation,
fair
housing
month
is
a
time
to
recommit
our
nation's
obligation
to
ensure
that
everyone
has
equal
access
to
safe,
decent
and
affordable
housing.
Housing
discrimination
has
no
place
in
the
united
states
of
america
no
place
in
the
city
of
charleston.
B
Discrimination
seek
justice
to
those
who
have
experienced
housing
discrimination
to
eliminate
racial
bias
and
other
forms
of
discrimination
in
all
stages
of
home,
buying
and
renting,
and
to
secure
equal
access
to
housing
opportunity
to
all,
whereas
fair
housing
is
more
than
just
words,
it
is
the
law.
Now,
therefore,
I
j
j
techenberg
may
of
the
city
of
charleston
proclaim
april.
2021
is
also
fair
housing
month,
and
I
want
to
present
to
you
our
partner
in
fair
housing
matters
and
many
other
affordable
matters.
Oatha
medals
with
the
trident
urban
league
otha.
F
Yeah,
thank
you,
mr
mayor,
thank
members
of
council
I'd
like
to
thank
gianna
and
her
team
in
the
department
of
housing
and
community
development.
Thank
you
on
behalf
of
the
urban
league.
You
know
every
year
we
look
forward
to
receiving
this
proclamation
from
the
city,
because
fair
housing
is
so
important
to
our
community.
I
don't
think
I
have
to
tell
that
to
anyone
on
on
the
call
here.
F
We
really
look
forward
to
to
doing
this
work,
but
what
I
want
everyone
to
understand.
This
is
not
the
work
of
the
urban
league
alone.
F
The
urban
league
works
in
partnership
with
the
city
to
bring
a
fair
housing
program
and
to
affirmatively
further
fair
housing
on
behalf
of
all
the
citizens
in
the
city
of
charleston,
I
think
today,
gianna
is
going
to
to
recognize
the
work
of
of
george
bresnahan,
and
I
I
want
to
thank
her
and
this
opportunity
to
recognize
the
work
that
george
does
here
at
the
urban
league
day
in
and
day
out,
I
came
to
when
I
came
to
charleston.
F
I
asked
george
to
hang
around
and
help
me
build
the
housing
department
that
was
15
years
ago,
and-
and
so
I
want
to
publicly
thank
him
for
the
time
and
energy
that
he
has
put
into
the
work
that
we
do
at
the
at
the
urban
league,
specifically
in
the
area
of
fair
housing.
Over
that
time,
george
has
helped
hundreds
and
hundreds
of
people
buy
their
first
home.
He
has
helped
hundreds
and
hundreds
of
individuals
increase
their
credit
worthiness.
F
F
The
urban
league
is
working
extremely
hard
to
to
meet
the
new
certifications
that
are
going
to
come
due
in
august.
That
will
be
required
for
us
to
continue
providing
fair
housing,
counseling,
and
so
the
staff
is
working
very
hard
to
pass
that
exam
and
those
certifications,
and
so
I
just
again
want
to
thank
george
and
thank
you
for
your
continued
support
of
the
urban
league.
F
T
Gianna
mayor,
I
don't
have
much
further
george
has
been
in
the
industry
now
over
25
years,
and
so
in
recognition
of
both
fair
housing
month
and
his
dedication.
There,
too,
we
wanted
to
honor
george
tonight
by
presenting
the
proclamation
to
george.
I
don't
see
him,
but
hopefully
he
hears
us
and
george.
We
appreciate
all
you
do
for
the
citizens
of
the
city
of
charleston,
the
one-on-one
housing
and
financial
counseling,
that
you
provide
to
put
citizens
in
a
better
place
financially.
T
B
I've
known
george
for
many
years
myself
other
when
you
were
speaking
and
saying
hundreds
and
hundreds
of
folks
that
he's
helped.
I
was
thinking
hundreds
and
thousands
because
he's
been
at
it
a
long
time
and
he
council,
member
mitchell
and
truly
has
helped
a
lot
of
our
citizens
with
fair
housing
needs
and
housing
needs
in
general.
So
he's
done
just
a
yeoman's
job
and
we
thank
him
for
his
service
to
this
community
and
all
the
people
that
he's
helped.
H
Thank
you
you're
right
about
mr
george,
brescia
hannah.
I
don't
know
if
a
lot
of
people
know
this
but
he's
a
career
man
of
the
navy.
His
son
is
also,
I
think,
a
captain
of
a
frigate
or
destroyer
in
the
navy
right
now,
following
his
father's
footsteps.
H
You
know
he
went
on
and
became
an
executive
out
at
new
core
bp
amaco,
I'm
sorry,
not
newco,
bp,
amaco
and
then
came
and
joined
in
with
mr
meadows
over
at
the
urban
league,
he's
been
given
to
this
community
for
a
long
time
and
you're
right.
I
don't
think
it's
the
hundreds,
it's
in
the
thousands
that
he's
helped
you
right
about
that.
So
job
well
done,
but
you
know
what
he's
still
working
so
I'm
glad
he's
still
contributing
back
giving
back
to
the
community
john.
U
Yes,
thank
you,
mr
mayor
members
of
city,
council,
gianna
and
her
team
in
the
department
of
housing
and
community
development.
We
worked
for
over
20
years.
Probably
as
far
as
I
can
remember,
thank
you
on
behalf
of
the
urban
league.
We
have
made
an
inroads
into
fair
housing,
basically
because
the
city
of
charleston
was
always
with
us.
We
look
forward
to
receiving
the
proclamation
from
the
city.
U
U
Thank
you.
I
came
to
charleston.
I
asked
to
hang
around
for
a
little
while
to
work
and
building
the
housing
department
that
was
more
than
15
years
ago.
Over
that
time,
I've
seen
firsthand
the
work
that
we
do
in
helping
clients
buy
homes
and
other
things
that
affect
that
affect
them
through
fair
housing.
U
I
want
publicly
to
thank
the
city
for
providing
us
with
the
opportunity,
and
I
would
personally
want
to
thank
gianna.
She
has
really
been
in
our
corner
and
has
given
us
good
guidance.
B
K
When
you
first
started
out,
I
was
doing
it
doing
it
all
one
time,
fair
housing
and
everything
else,
and
when
I
met
george
georgia,
was
it
the
urban
league
and
john
said?
Well,
I'm
not
going
to
stay
out
too
long
mitchell
you
want
to
take
over
by
some
norway
he
said.
Come
on.
Give
me
your
help.
You
can
work
part-time,
that's
normally!
I
had
enough
of
it.
33
years
was
enough
of
it,
so
I
would
say
to
you
jaws,
congratulations
and
keep
on
keeping
on
and
I'll
give
you
a
little
push
when
you
need
it.
J
Yeah,
mr
mayor
george,
thanks
a
lot
for
all
that
you've
done
over
the
years
and
I
hope,
within
this
year
the
city
can
give
you
a
bigger
gift:
the
gift
of
enforcement,
as
we
continue
to
contemplate,
attempting
to
pass
a
fair
housing
law
substantially
equivalent
to
the
national
law,
which
will
go
beyond
your
outreach
activity,
but
give
you
give
you
the
opportunity
to
assist
the
city
in
enforcing
the
law.
J
U
Thanks
doug
and
I'm
glad
you're
there
in
my
corner.
U
I
didn't
quite
you
know,
I
don't
see
you
on
the
screen.
That's
why,
but
anyway,
thanks
very
much
it's
my
pleasure
working
with
you
throughout
the
years.
B
Great,
well,
god
bless
you!
Thank
you,
george.
Okay
y'all.
We
got
one
more
proclamation
and
this
one
is
regarding
crime,
victims,
rights
weeks
and
we're
we're
blessed
to
have
with
us
miss
vicki
cornelison
with
the
medical
university,
and
she
is
very
ably
assisted
by
michaela
porter,
who
used
to
interact
with
many
of
us
in
her
former
role
at
the
post
and
courier,
and
let
me
just
proclaim
that
2021
is
the
40th
anniversary
of
national
crime
victims
rights
week,
which
was
first
proclaimed
by
president
ronald
reagan.
B
Back
in
1981
national
crime
victims
rights
week
is
a
time-honored
tradition
that
has
recognized
and
validated
the
impact
of
crime
on
victims,
survivors
communities
and
those
who
assist
them.
The
2021
national
crime
victims
rights
week
theme
support
victims,
build
trusts,
engage
communities,
reflects
the
national
and
local
approach
required
to
ensure
that
victims
needs
are
identified
and
addressed
since
the
passage
of
the
victims
of
crime
act
of
1984
and
through
the
dedicated
work
of
victim
service
providers,
civic
leaders
and
elected
officials.
B
There
is
a
growing
array
of
services
and
resources
available
to
victims
and
their
loved
ones.
Charleston
is
home
to
the
national
mass
violence.
Victimization
resource
center,
a
reliable
source
of
information
resources
and
support
that
civic
leaders,
mental
health
professionals,
journalists,
policy
makers
and
victim
service
professionals
can
turn
to
in
the
immediate
aftermath
of
a
mass
violence
incident
in
the
months
and
years
that
follow,
and
in
fact
they
were
active
here
in
the
aftermath
of
the
mother
emanuel
tragedy.
B
Sorry
repeated
that,
whereas
the
city
of
charleston
hereby
commits
to
supporting
victims
and
survivors
following
a
crime,
building
trust
with
them
when
they
seek
assistance
and
engaging
the
community
in
efforts
to
meet
their
needs
and
thanks
to
community
members,
victim
service
providers
and
criminal
and
juvenile
justice
professionals,
who
are
committed
to
helping
victims
find
relevant
assistance,
support
and
justice.
We
proclaim
that
the
week
of
april
18th
through
the
24th
is
crime
victims
rights
week
in
the
city
of
charleston.
I
miss
cornel
nielsen
grant
you're
on.
Thank
you
for
being
with
us.
W
We
at
the
national
mass
violence,
victimization
resource
center,
support
many
activities
on
behalf
of
victims,
both
in
our
community
and
around
the
nation.
We
also
support
victim
service
providers
and
resiliency
directors,
etc,
places
where
mass
violence
events
have
occurred.
The
theme
for
this
year's
national
crime
victims
rights
week
is
support.
Victims,
build
trust
and
engage
communities,
as
you
said,
mr
mayor,
and
it
represents
a
renewal
of
our
commitment
to
acknowledge,
serve
and
honor
crime,
victims
and
survivors.
W
B
Yes,
ma'am,
thank
you
for
being
with
us
and
the
work.
You
do
it's
highly
recognized
here
in
the
city
of
charleston
and
chief
reynolds.
I
don't
know
if
you
want
to
add
any
comments,
but
our
our
charleston
police
department
has
made
a
priority
of
focusing
on
assisting
those
who
have
been
victims
of
crime
chief.
Q
B
So
that
concludes
our
proclamations
and
presentations
for
this
evening
and
next
we
have
two
public
hearings
that
are
before
us.
Mr
morgan,
are
you
out
there
and
we'll
present
number
one.
Y
I
am
mr
mayor
and
I'm
also
going
to
have
miss
johnson.
I
think
she
may
have
a
few
things
that
she
wants
to
say
about
this
first
item
for
public
hearing
and
also
mr
mcqueeny.
We've
got
just
a
few
slides
on
this
that
I
can
screen
share.
Y
Y
Y
Okay,
so
this
is
this
amendment
to
the
workforce,
housing,
districts
and
opportunity
zones
in
our
zoning,
ordinance
and
land
use
regulations
to
provide
for
an
increased
fee
in
lieu
for
and
encouraging
required
workforce
housing
units
on
site.
It
was
reviewed
by
planning
commission
last
month
and
recommended
eight
to
zero
in
favor,
and
now
it
comes
to
you
all
some
of
the
provisions
that
I
think
you
all
are
familiar
with,
but
we
just
have
a
couple
of
slides
here
and
miss
johnson
or
mr
mcqueen.
Y
If
you
want
to
chime
in
on
any
of
these
feel
free
to,
but
the
current
fee
in
lieu
amount
of
five
dollars
and
ten
cents
per
gross
square
foot
foot
would
go
up
to
a
combination
of
750,
10.,
12.50
and
15,
and
these
are
all
at
different
categories
of
development
and
number
of
units
all
in
an
effort
to
encourage
more
units
to
be
built
on
the
site.
Y
Additionally,
the
affordability
period
has
been
changed
in
this
ordinance
from
25
to
30
years,
so
those
units
that
are
built
on
the
site
would
stay
affordable
for
30
years
and
we
have
example
here
and
again
if
miss
joss
or
mr
queenie
wanted
to
go
through
any
of
this.
But
these
are
the
square
footages
of
a
hypothetical
building
and
what
the
difference
would
be
and
happy
to
answer
further
questions
on
this
ordinance.
T
Christopher,
the
only
thing
I
would
add
is
the
fact
that,
in
addition
to
increasing
a
period
of
affordability,
we
also
added
an
escalator
to
the
ordinance
that
allows
an
increase,
allows
for
the
increase
to
take
place
based
on
either
the
consumer
price
index
or
the
area
median
income,
whichever
is
higher,
but
beyond
that
you've
done
an
excellent
job
of
providing
the
overview.
Thank
you.
B
Terrific,
madam
clerk,
did
anyone
sign
up
to
be
heard
on
this
matter?.
Z
Good
evening,
mr
mayor
members
of
council,
kashan
dralet
historic,
charleston
foundation,
our
george
charleston
foundation
is
very
thankful
and
grateful
to
councils
for
bringing
this
ordinance
forward
this
evening.
Affordable
housing
is
one
of
charleston's
greatest
challenges
and
has
approached
a
crisis
level
through
our
work
with
the
charleston
redevelopment
corporation
and
the
palmetto
community.
Land
trust
hcf
is
a
committed
partner
of
the
city
in
addressing
this
crisis
and
muh
zoning
is
an
important
tool
in
the
city's
tool.
Belt.
Z
Hcf
is
very
supportive
of
the
fee
increase,
particularly
in
light
of
the
findings
by
community
data
platforms
for
the
comprehensive
plan
highlighting
the
city's
dire
housing
needs.
We
believe
that
the
ordinance
before
you
this
evening
is
a
creative
approach
and
we'd
very
much
like
to
see
you
approve
it
this
evening.
Z
We
are
super,
encouraged
to
see
that
affordability
period
extended
to
30
years,
so
we
would
definitely
offer
our
kudos
to
janna
and
her
team
for
inclusion
of
that
and
the
ordinance,
and
with
that,
we
would
encourage
council
respect
respectfully
to
move
this
ordinance
forward.
Thank
you.
B
Great,
thank
you,
catherine,
and
thank
you
for
your
partnership
on
these
matters.
If
there
was
no
one
else,
a
matter
now
comes
before
council.
F
B
I
AA
Sorry,
yes,
thank
you,
mr
mayor
and,
and
I
thank
you
christopher
and
gianna.
I
I
do.
I
do
strongly
support
this
amended
version
of
our
of
our
mu
workforce
ordinance.
I
I
was
just
curious.
Was
it?
Was
it
extended
the
inclusionary
time
that
went
from
25
to
30
years?
Did
the
planning
commission
have
that
change
or
did
they
vote
on
the
25
years?
Just
out
of
curiosity.
T
They
voted
on
the
25,
but
there
were
strong
suggestions
that
we
revisited
and
part
of
revisiting
it.
We
also
reached
out
to
developers
who
participated
in
the
mu
program
to
ask
if
extending
that
the
additional
five
years
would
have
any
long-term
impact
and
they
indicated
it
would
not
as
well
so
we
covered
our
bases
in
that
regard.
Thank
you.
AA
AA
B
Have
a
motion
and
a
second
all
in
favor,
please
say:
aye
hi
bose
the
eyes.
Have
it
item
number
two,
mr
morgan,.
Y
Y
Okay,
apologize
for
the
number
here.
This
is
actually
ordinance.
Amendment
number
two,
but
this
is
for
the
new
conservation
zoning
ordinance.
This
would
create
conservation
development
within
the
zoning
ordinance
and
add
relevant
definitions
to
section
54
120..
Y
This
is
coming
to
you
from
the
planning
commission,
who
also
recommended
unanimously
for
this,
with
a
nine
to
zero
vote.
I'm
these
slides
are
here.
If
you
all
want
to
look
at
these
again,
we've
shown
them
to
you
before.
I
think
you
all
know
kind
of
the
background
on
this,
I'm
going
to
zip
the
room,
but
we
have
them
here.
If
you've
got
questions
but
the
districts
it's
applicable
to
our
sr1
sr7,
rr1
and
conservation,
you
have
to
have
a
minimum
of
10
contiguous
acres.
Y
It
has
the
same
net
density
as
the
base
zoning,
but
the
exception
is
for
adus
and
workforce
housing
units
that
don't
count
towards
that
net
density.
It
has
a
lot
of
prioritization
of
existing
site
features
in
the
design
approach.
It
requires
a
lot
of
upfront
analysis
of
the
site,
so
we
know
the
best
way
to
develop
the
highest
areas
of
the
site.
Y
It
also
takes
into
account
many
of
the
recommendations
we've
come
forward
with
in
the
comprehensive
plan.
Analysis
such
as
water,
first
limited
impervious
surface,
preservation
of
existing
wetlands
and
green
infrastructure
and
pre-development
analysis
of
the
hydrology,
and
it
also
has
nods
towards
housing,
variety
and
affordability
as
part
of
the
ordinance.
Y
Y
And
with
that,
we're
sending
it
forward
to
council
for
final
approvals.
B
Okay,
madam
clark,
did
we
have
anyone
who
wanted
to
address
us
on
this
matter?.
AB
My
name
is
betsy
laforce,
I'm
with
the
coastal
conservation
league.
We
would
like
to
reiterate
our
support
for
the
proposed
conservation
development
ordinance.
This
tool
has
the
potential
to
serve
as
a
model
for
innovative
land
use
changes
that
will
need
to
follow
the
adoption
of
the
updated,
comprehensive
plan
later
this
year.

five
years,
combined
with
planning
efforts,
like
the
dutch
dialogues,
have
reminded
us
of
the
importance
of
maintaining
undisturbed
forests
and
pre-development
hydrology
of
a
site
before
it's
permanently
altered.
Incorporating
this
conservation
development
ordinance
is
a
good
first
step
to
help
facilitate
smart
growth
in
a
time
when
we
need
it
most.
A
time
when
available
land
is
scarce,
development
pressure
is
high
and
climate
conditions
are
changing.
AB
This
ordinance
follows
best
practices
for
the
of
the
recommendations
from
the
dutch
dialogue
for
how
we
should
be
managing
land
and
water,
and
we
believe
the
logical
order
of
operations
for
development
approvals
outlined
in
this
ordinance
should
become
the
status
quo
for
how
future
projects
take
shape
in
the
city.
Thank
you
for
your
consideration
of
these
comments.
Z
Good
evening,
mr
mayor
and
members
of
council,
thank
you.
I
was
unmuting
myself,
sorry
casting
drilling
historic
charleston
foundation.
Again,
we
are
very
supportive
of
the
conservation
development
ordinance
and
would
echo
the
thoughts
that
that
miss
laforce
shared
before
we
believe
the
conservation
development
ordinance
will
afford
further
protection
of
wetlands
trees,
historic
structures
and
cultural
resources
in
suburban
areas
of
charleston.
Z
This
ordinance
is
consistent
with
the
recommendations
made
in
the
dutch
dialogues,
trust
and
final
report,
as
it
will
allow
for
prioritization
of
development
on
high
ground
and
will
avoid
placement
of
future
residents
in
risky
flood
prone
areas.
Additionally,
we
are
very
encouraged
that
the
ordinance
incentivizes,
the
inclusion
of
workforce
and
affordable
housing
and
respectfully
hcf
would
encourage
council
to
vote
in
favor
of
the
ordinance
this
evening.
Thank
you.
I
Council
member
shade
yeah
christopher,
would
you
mind
bringing
back
up
that
screen?
It
showed
the
number
of
units
per
area.
I
This
one
yeah,
so
how
is
that
number
determined?
Do
you
know
this.
Y
Was
determined
from
our
by
our
consultant
who
was
doing
the
deep
dive
on
our
housing
issues
by
looking
at
the
number
of
housing
units
in
the
area
what
people's
incomes
are
and
the
cost
of
housing
in
these
various
areas
of
the
city.
I
I
Y
J
B
Well,
this
says
for
both
existing
and
future
residents.
Christopher
gianna,
you
all
want
to
double
check
with
your
consultant
and
make
sure
they
included
some
some
rate
of
increase
in
population.
Y
B
AA
Thank
you.
I
just
wanted
to
maybe
state
the
obvious,
but
it
really
struck
me,
as
we
heard
our
two
comments
from
during
the
public
comment
about
this
particular
ordinance
that
we
we
have.
We
have
found
a
synergy
between
the
conservation
movement
and
the
the
traditional
historic
preservation
movement
that
began
on
the
peninsula
and
it
just
even.
AA
I
think
it
really
demonstrates
that
the
depth
of
our
our
community
in
terms
of
the
way
they
look
at
issues
and
how
they
advocate
and
all
of
a
sudden
we've
got
two
groups
that
on
paper,
would
never
really
find
that
much
in
common
talking
to
us
in
sync
about
how
we're
gonna
develop
suburban
lifestyles
into
the
future.
So
I
I
think,
that's
a
remarkable
accolade
to
those
groups
and
the
way
that
they
have
helped
us
consider
planning,
as
we've
been
going
along
over
the
last.
G
AA
AA
I
do
have
to
state
my
concern
about
trying
to
incentivize
incentivize
the
workforce
housing
in
in
places
that
are
most
likely
to
be
far
outside
of
our
normal
transit
corridors
and
certainly
a
lot
of
the
high
drying
connected
areas
where
we
know
we're
going
to
be
incentivizing,
affordable,
housing.
Attainability,
it's
going
to
be
a
concern,
I
think
case
by
case.
AA
Are
we
putting
people
in
in
locations
to
live
and
work
and
commute
that
are
might
be
affordable
in
terms
of
the
mortgage
that
they
pay
or
the
overall
housing
cost
that
they
pay,
but
they're
going
to
pay
the
price
potentially
in
commuting
costs
and
transportation
costs
and
lifestyle
costs?
When
it
takes
you
an
hour
to
come
and
go
from
your
job
and
your
family
is
at
home,
you
know
needing
needing
the
parenting
that
everyone
wants
to
provide
to
their
families.
B
B
Thank
you
all
kindly.
That
concludes
our
public
hearings
for
this
evening.
Next
is
our
approval
of
city
council.
B
Second,
any
delete
deletions,
editions,
edits,
hearing
none
all
in
favor,
please
say
hi
hi,
hi,
all
right
yeah,
let's
have
it
next
up.
Is
our
citizens
participation
period?
Madam
clerk.
A
K
Mr
mayor,
I
think
we
need
to
go
back
to
the
invitation
before
we
go
into
that.
To
put
some
since
cosmic
wearing
is
back
online.
B
Yes,
that
that
would
be
entirely
appropriate
councilmember.
We
had
an
interruption
there
in
the
midst
of
your
invocation.
Could
we
would
you
mind
going
back
to
that.
H
Oh,
no,
sir,
at
all.
Thank
you
councilman
mitchell
and
mr
mayor.
Let
us
pray,
certainly
god
as
we
come
before
you,
we
thank
you
for
your
amazing
grace.
We
thank
you
for
the
provisions
that
you
have
provided
to
our
families
because
we
know
it
doesn't
have
to
be.
We
thank
you
for
mother
earth
with
all
the
abuse
that
mankind
has
put
upon.
It
still
provides
resources
for
the
betterment
of
your
children.
H
We
pray
for
our
national
government,
we
pray
for
our
state
government.
We
pray
for
our
local
government
because
the
government
that
is
closest
to
you,
we
know
he
has
the
most
fruit.
We
pray
that
we
bring
the
best
of
our
intellect
and
our
integrity
as
we
go
about
doing
the
business
of
the
citizens
of
charleston.
H
A
AC
Thank
you,
mr
mayor,
can
you
hear
me.
AC
AC
I
guess
a
quick
reminder
a
little
bit
of
informing
and
a
short
brief
ask
if
you
go
back,
I
guess,
and
I
say
a
quick
reminder:
may
4th
is
opening
day
so
certainly
want
to
make
sure
the
community
and
city
council
is
aware
of
that.
As
we
get
back
to
allowing
a
little
bit
of
gathering
and
some
baseball
back
for
business
and
open
for
business,
we
are
adhering
to
the
task
force,
which
has
approved
the
ballpark
for
roughly
plus
or
minus
2
300
fans,
a
game
socially
distanced.
AC
V
AC
I,
as
I've,
communicated
to
some
offline
a
little
bit
the
the
ballpark.
Our
priority
is
to
keep
everybody
safe
while
enjoying
the
expectation
of
coming
out
to
the
ballpark,
and
we
have
protocols
in
place
to
do
that,
and
we're
well
aware
that
every
market
in
the
state
is
dealing
with
the
coveted
pandemic
differently.
AC
But
just
as
an
observation,
there
are
five
professional
baseball.
Minor
league
teams
in
the
state
of
south
carolina
and
charleston
right
now
has
the
the
most
restrictions
on
those
teams
to
operate,
so
that
is
making
it.
You
know
certainly
difficult
on
all
business,
but
but
we're
no
exception.
AC
AC
All
right,
thank
you,
sir.
I
just
was
close
up
by
saying,
pros
and
cons
we're
opening
up,
but
we
actually
have
18
games
in
the
month
of
may
and
with
the
new
scheduling.
That's
almost
a
third
of
our
season
and
plus
or
minus
2
000
fans.
A
game
is,
is
not
a
sustainable
model
for
professional
baseball
at
the
joe.
So
I
realize
extreme
extenuating
circumstances
and
I
appreciate
everybody's
helping
keeping
the
community
safe
just
wanted
to
relay
those
points,
and
thank
you
great.
G
AD
AD
It
is
not
a
democracy
in
the
neighborhood,
it
is.
Is
everything
equal?
If
you
look
inside
the
notes,
I
sent
there's
a
youtube
video
of
13
minutes
of
one
car.
There
are
three
load
roads
that
parallel
my
neighborhood
there's
one
car
on
two
of
those
roads
during
a
time
of
complete
chaos
over
on
burning
tree
road.
Let's
go
over
all
the
requirements.
First
of
all,
there
are
nine,
roughly
nine
requirements
to
be
able
to
close
the
road
city
didn't
meet
any
of
them.
AD
Now
they
partially
met
one
because
they
voted
to
decide
whether
or
not
to
close
the
road
or
not,
but
they
voted
to
not
close
the
road.
I
don't
know
how
the
road
got
closed,
but
councilman
stevens
specifically
said
we're.
Not
closing
runs
next
requirement.
Send
a
registered
letter
to
everybody
affected.
No
registered
letters
were
sent
has
to
be
posted
in
the
newspaper
three
times
it
was
posted
twice,
doesn't
count.
AD
V
M
M
V
M
24-Year
resident
of
the
charleston
country
club
2.
also,
I
have
a
lot
of
issues
that
needs
to
be
brought
up.
First
issue:
we
talk
about
bullies
in
the
neighborhood.
There
is
an
hoa
self-proclaimed.
There
is
no
such
animal
in
this
neighborhood.
They
have
misrepresented
this
neighborhood
with
dominion,
energy,
the
city
and
other
agencies
what's
happening
is
that
false
misrepresentation
of
this
neighborhood
has
caused
a
lot
of
misinformation
and
a
lot
of
issues
in
the
neighborhood
that
needs
to
be
addressed.
M
The
city,
if
they
agree
with
the
signage,
that's
on
inverness,
they
have
to
agree
with
the
signage
to
be
placed
on
harborview,
burning,
tree
and
frampton.
The
next
thing
is,
the
city
must
enforce
their
codes
and
the
laws,
if
you're
not
enforcing
codes
and
laws
which
is
speeding
on
these
roads.
Illegal
parking
blocking
of
driveways
blocking
a
fire
hydrant
blocking
of
the
intersection
blocking
up
emergency
vehicles
and
blocking
of
the
entry
and
exit
into
the
neighborhood.
M
AE
Hey
yes,
ma'am,
I
was
just
calling
for
the.
We
have
a
agenda
for
rezoning
coming
up
and
I
I
spoke
to
speak
about
that
we're
on
the
line
in
case
the
council.
Members
had
any
questions
it's
with
regards
to
a
second
reading
for
items
number
three
and
four.
I
don't
think
there
were
any
questions,
but
I
just
wanted
to
be
available
and
that's
why
I
signed
up.
AE
AE
X
I
presented
our
project
at
the
last
council
meeting
and
I
signed
up
to
speak
this
evening
just
in
case
there
are
questions
about
the
project,
but
we're
listed
as
under
item
l
number
one.
The
rezoning
of
569
and
571.
T
V
C
Hey:
hey
everybody!
This
is
brittany,
henty,
sorry,
I'm
here
at
the
soccer
field,
so
I
hope
there's
no
background
noise.
It's
too
disturbing,
but
at
any
rate,
I've
tried
to
reach
out
to
staff
and
the
city
council,
member
for
lakeside
townhouses,
and
I
just
had
her
back
we're
trying
to
work
very
grateful
that
for
the
energy
efforts
and
the
new
garbage
cans
that
save
energy
and
better
for
the
environment,
the
issue
we're
having
is
that
our
garbage
day
got
changed
to
monday.
C
There's
a
lot
of
folks
in
that
neighborhood
who
are
elderly
and
they
can't
roll
the
big
garbage
cans
out
to
the
streets,
and
we
rely
on
our
landscapers
to
help
us,
but
we
can't
contract
our
landscapers
to
work
on
sunday.
So
we
really
need
another
day.
I
mean
we'll
move
things
around
on
rm
like
maybe
make
it
tuesday,
wednesday,
thursday
or
friday.
If
you
could
please
work
with
us,
we
would
so
much
appreciate
it.
Thank
you
so
much.
AF
Hello
council,
thank
you
so
much
for
taking
my
call.
We
spoke
with
you
last
month
and
I
just
wanted
to
go
over
a
few
things
that
you
said
in
the
last
council
meeting,
starting
with
you,
mr
appel,
you
said
last
last
last
month
and
I
quote:
there's
never
been
a
shutdown
in
south
carolina.
That's
a
blatant
lie.
You
voted
for
it
yourself,
carl
brady.
You
talked
about
not
wanting
to
lift
the
mandate,
because
you
wanted
to
make
sure
that
the
light
at
the
end
of
the
tunnel
wasn't
a
train.
AF
Then,
just
a
few
days
ago,
you're
photographed
out
with
shaylee
and
harry
griffin
got
a
mask
shoulder
to
shoulder.
Did
you
did
the
pain
train
pass
by
or
what
what
the
hell
man
I'm
mayor,
teklenberg
just
yesterday,
you're
down
at
colonial
lake
you're
photo
op
in
and
posing
for
pictures
and
tooting
fruiting
with
no
mask
on
right.
AF
Next
to
all
these
people,
when
you've
got
me
scheduled
next
this
summer
in
june,
for
a
jury
trial
for
not
wearing
a
mask
out
in
public,
and
you
sent
captain
brutal
to
my
house
to
deliver
the
damn
ticket,
so
either
your
hipper
fits
or
you're
full
of
I
just
want
to
know
which
one
it
is
please.
Let
me
know
thank
you.
A
V
AG
AG
I
can't
see
you,
but
I'm
hoping
that
it's
all
of
you
remember
the
incident
last
summer
at
the
battery,
when
the
guy
broke
his
flag
pole
over
a
young
man's
back.
Did
you
know
that
the
attacker
continued
to
charge
the
young
man
after
beating
him
over
his
back
and
only
stopped
because
somebody
else
knocked
him
down
before
he
could
continue
to
hurt
him.
If
the
young
man
had
been
beaten
so
badly,
he
ended
up
in
a
coma.
AG
Would
you
have
decided
by
now
to
find
a
way
to
reduce
the
risk
of
injury
and
anything
like
it
happening
again?
Just
this
sunday
at
the
battery
at
charleston's
own
live
weekly
celebration
of
white
supremacists,
church
bombers,
lynchers
and
lost
cause
segregationists.
We
watched
one
of
the
clan
nearly
get
into
a
fist
fight
with
an
elderly
tourist.
He
started
shouting
and
waving
his
arms
for
a
few
minutes
and
he
went
up
to
the
elderly
taurus
and
started
bumping
his
chest
into
him.
AG
It
wasn't
the
police
presence,
but
our
frantic
shouting
for
the
police
that
finally
de-escalated
the
situation.
The
police
were
sitting
in
their
vehicles,
a
block
away
and
had
no
idea
anything
was
even
going
on.
Would
it
take
a
tourist
actually
suffering
a
cracked
skull
for
you
to
decide
to
find
a
way
to
improve
safety?
What
if
it
was
somebody
you
knew
who
got
hurt?
What,
if
it
was
your
wife
or
your
child
or
even
your
nana?
AG
AG
I'm
hopeful
that
the
police,
who
are
paid
to
work
at
the
battery
every
weekend
decide
to
exit
their
vehicles
and
be
present
nearest
to
the
obvious
highest
risk
areas
to
help
reduce
the
potential
of
harm
to
all
citizens
versus
waiting
for
somebody
to
get
hurt
and
then
punishing
the
bad
guy.
Other
cities
have
taken
action
to
reduce
the
risk
of
injury
to
people
while
continuing
to
allow
everyone
to
exercise
their
first
amendment
rights.
We
are
looking
for
you
to
do
the
same.
AG
A
And
then
we
did
receive
some
comments.
One
person
sent
an
email
saying
that
the
army
corps
had
no
intention
of
using
the
recommendations
from
the
dutch
dialogue
wagner
and
ball
study
in
suggestions
from
clemson
students.
She
said
it
seemed
to
be
the
responsibility
of
the
local
government.
A
One
person
recommended
a
13-minute
youtube
link
to
watch
that
showed
no
traffic
on
fairway
drive
and
everest
drive
on
james
island
and
that
it
backed
up
traffic
on
burning
tree
road
in
frampton
drive
three
people
referenced
amendment
14,
section
1,
that
said
no
state
shall
deprive
any
person
of
life,
liberty
or
property.
Without
due
process
of
law.
44
people
said
the
load
line
was
a
critical
improvement
to
the
peninsula.
That
would
create
jobs,
improved
green
space,
safe
paths
for
pedestrians
and
cyclists,
mobility
and
connectivity
improvements.

Great,
thank
you.
Madam
clark
appreciate
that
presentation.
Thank
you
all
the
citizens
who
participated
and
shared
your
comments
with
us
tonight
so
next
up
is
our
petitions
and
communications
and
first
thing
is
the
appointments
to
the
army
corp
a
three
by
three
advisory
move
for
second,
any
discussion:
councilmember
griffin.
AH
Yes,
sir,
thank
you
I'm
going
to
vote
against
this
because
I
don't
think
any
of
these
people
aren't
upstanding
members
of
our
community.
I
just
feel
bad
that
there's
a
very
good
chance
that
we
won't
move
with
this
project
and
I
feel
bad
that
we're
asking
these
people
to
dedicate
months
of
their
time
to
meet
when,
if
you
took
a
poll
of
the
council
right
now,
we
may
not
even
have
seven
votes
to
pass
it
as
of
today
and
I
think
we're
doing
a
disservice
to
all
of
these
people
to
waste
their
time.
For
months.

Reaffirm
our
city's
commitment
to
continuous
improvement
in
environmental
stewardship
and
express
our
commitment
to
support
and
protect
the
environment
and
caitlyn
has
been
working
diligently
on
our
climate
change
plan
and
we'll
be
bringing
that
update
to
our
sustainability
committee
and
to
council
next
month.
That's
the
best
expression
of
our
support
for
earth
day.
I
think
we
could
possibly
have
anyway.
We
have
a
motion
to
second.
Second,
any
further
discussion.
V
AF
B
Aye
opposed
the
eyes
have
it
next?
Is
our
update
on
the
city's
response
october
19.,
I
believe
shannon
scaff
is
online.
I
want
to
commend
him
and
his
whole
team,
who
have
been
coordinating
with
community
healthcare
partners
to
provide
as
many
vaccinations
as
possible
in
our
community.
Our
own
vaccine
outpost
at
180
lockwood
is
averaging,
I'm
told
close
to,
if
not
over
a
thousand
vaccinations
every
day,
so
we
are
making
a
difference.
Y'all,
and
I
really
want
to
thank
you,
shannon
and
tracy,
and
all
the
team
members.
AI
AI
I
recently
learned
from
the
team
that
musc
has
actually
been
sequencing.
The
tests
that
they're
doing
the
kova
tests
that
they're
doing
at
musc
so
they've
been
collecting
that
data
really
since
december,
and
so
you
can
see
on
this
chart
kind
of
how
the
variants
have
been
showing
up
in
that
in
that
sequencing
that
they've
been
doing
the
the
box
with
the
the
dashed
line
around
it.
AI
AI
AI
AI
Why
that's
critical
is
that
50
is
that
threshold
where
cases
really
exploded
in
europe
and
caused
another
wave
where
we've
seen
you
know
things
in
europe
shut
down
again.
So
that's
why
they're
they're
kind
of
on
high
alert
if
you
will
and
they
really
kind
of
feel
like
we're
gonna.
Unfortunately,
no
one
has
a
crystal
ball
with
these
things,
so,
but
they
expect
that
we're
going
to
know
a
lot
more
in
30
days
if
our
vaccination
rate
has
been
effective
enough
to
prevent
another
wave
from
these
variants.
AI
Another
frustration
that
they're
having
right
now
is
that
symptoms
of
cova,
19
and
seasonal
allergies
are
indistinguishable
in
most
adults,
so
adults
that
think
they
are
having
seasonal
allergies,
are
actually
sick
with
cobit
and
continue
to
spread
the
virus.
So
that's
a
that's
a
really
frustrating
thing
that
they
are
that
they're,
seeing
the
really
big
takeaway
from
the
team
was
that
continuing
to
use
mass
as
a
as
a
tool
will
really
help
interrupt
transmission
and
should
be
considered
necessary
until
high
levels.
AI
So
where
are
we
with
vaccinations?
This
is
the
distribution
of
south
carolina
vaccinations.
Each
week
since
december,
you
can
see
it's
taken
a
little
decline
this
week,
that
the
decline
is
due
to
a
decreased
number
of
the
jansen
or
johnson
johnson
vaccine
and
based
on
what
we
all
learned
this
morning.
That
might
not
necessarily
be
a
bad
thing,
so
hopefully
we'll
start
to
continue
to
see
more
moderna
and
pfizer
coming
into
the
state
in
the
coming
weeks.
AI
AI
So
how
are
we
doing
in
south
carolina
in
comparison?
This
is
from
our
city
dashboard,
but
it
pulls
directly
from
the
dhec
data
in
south
carolina
we're
at
29
of
immunity
through
vaccinations,
and
then
we
also
put
on
there
the
1.2
that
have
some
natural
immunity
through
having
the
disease.
AI
Charleston
county
we're
looking
we're
looking
good
we're
tracking
right,
along
with
the
rest
of
the
u.s.
Almost
37
percent
have
immunity
through
vaccination,
and
that
is
just
one
shot,
though
so
that
is,
that
is,
37
have
received
at
least
one
dose,
so
they
have
some
level
of
immunity
and
then
another
almost
eight
percent
from
natural
immunity.
AI
And,
lastly,
where
we
are
with
city,
employee
cases
and
vaccinations,
we
currently
have
zero
active
employee
cases,
yes,
which
is
wonderful
and
we've
gotten
24
of
our
staff
have
been
fully
vaccinated.
So
that's
24
who've
received
two
doses
and
then
another
16
percent
who
have
had
some
sort
of
natural
immunity
through
through
having
the
disease
and
with
that
I'll
turn
it
over
to
shannon
and
happy
to
answer
any
questions.
J
As
we
continue
testing
and
we,
we
find
that
that
people
are
are
positive,
are
they
being
given
the
antibiotic.
J
Asking
no,
no
are
they.
There
are
some,
I
think
it's
minoxicillin
or
whatever,
and
I
think
musc
has
been
using
it
and
it's
a
it's
a
it's
an
antibody
for
people
who
test
positive
for
the
virus
and
what
this
antibody
will
do
is
decrease,
hospitalizations,
decrease,
symptoms,
etc,
etc.
Are
you
familiar
with
it.
AI
I'm
not,
I
am
okay.
B
Well,
I
I've
spoken
with
dr
cole
about
this,
and,
and
they
are
administrating
administering
that
treatment,
but
apparently
they
filter
or
they
they
they
give
it
to
select
patients
who
they
think
it's
appropriate
for.
It's
not
for
everybody.
Apparently,.
H
Mr
mayor
I'd
like
to
ask
a
question:
ms
mcgee,
please,
yes,
sir
tracy,
can
you
tell
me
if
what's
the
percentage
of
city
council
members
that's
been
vaccinated,.
H
Right
out
of
12
council
members,
what's
the
percent
has
you
know
the
vaccine
shots.
H
V
H
B
All
right,
councilmember
shuli.
Thank
you,
mr
mayor.
R
Tracy
on
the
procedure
given
of
people
that
were
that.
R
Last
week
it
was
actually
on
april
8th.
I
got
a
musc
newsletter
that
I
get
in
my
email.
All
the
time
and
dr
michael
sweat
had
said
the
immunity
to
the
coronavirus
that
hit
60
percent
statewide,
and
it
was
just
a
little
bit
lower
than
that
for
charleston
county,
and
I
don't
think
it
went
to
the
city
level
if
I
remember,
but
but
it
was
close
to
60
percent
for
the
county
is
the
city
that
much
lower
in
immunity
than
the
rest
of
the
county
and
the
rest
of
the
state.
AI
It
shouldn't
be,
those
are
actually
county
numbers
and
I'm
I'm.
They
are
probably
doing
some
different
epidemiology
estimates
with
those
numbers
and
I'm
just
taking
the
exact
numbers
based
off
of
from
the
dhec
website
as
well.
Oh
and
they
made
well
yeah.
So
I'm
taking
what's
what's
coming
exactly
from
dhec,
and
so
they
may
be
doing
some
extrapolation
with
with
the
data
that
they're
receiving
as
well,
because
they
might
be
adding
in
the
number
of
people,
because
I'm
just
taking
actual
testing
results.
AI
R
Yeah,
I
just
think
that's
a
significant
difference
if
statewide-
and
this
was
a
week
ago-
you
know-
certainly
that
number
has
increased
now
with
the
amount
of
vaccines
has
happened
since
then.
So
I.
AI
Can
double
check
because
I
I
was
kind
of
keeping
tabs
on
on
their
calculations
to
make
sure
that
we
were
very
similar
and
close
in
numbers.
So
I'll
go
back
and
I
talked
to
dr
sweat
pretty
regularly.
So
that's
an
easy
thing
for
to
tidy
up.
R
Okay-
and
I
know
you
also
said-
eight
percent
decrease
over
the
last
two
weeks
now
two
weeks
ago.
I
think
we
had
a
leveling
out,
but
if
you
look
back
four
weeks
we've
actually,
since
we
talked
about
this
last
time,
there's
actually
been
about
a
20
percent
decrease
in
those
and
in
the
last
week
I
believe
it's
been
about
16,
because
I
watched
those
charts.
As
you
know,
I
talked
to
you
about
it,
and
so
we've
had
significant
decrease
above
eight
percent.
AI
Yeah
we've.
Definitely
it's
been
a
little
bit
of
a
roller
coaster,
but
if
you
look
at
it's,
it's
kind
of
hard
to
look
at
the
daily
numbers
themselves,
and
so
it's
better
to
kind
of
look
at
the
overall
trend,
and
so
when
you,
when
we
do
look
at
the
trend
over
the
last
eight
weeks
or
so
it's
definitely
flattened
out.
So
it's
not
quite
as
we
haven't
def,
we
definitely
haven't
been
on
an
upward
or
downward
slope
significantly.
AI
I
Thank
you,
mr
mayor
tracy.
The
number
that
you
gave
us
about
37
percent
were
or
immune
through
vaccination
or
natural,
and
you
based
it
on
jim,
having
just
one
shot.
AI
I
didn't
pull
that
number
for
I
can
I
mean
I
can
pull
up
the
dhec
website
pretty
quickly
that
they're
reporting
that
as
well
who's
been
who
the
number
of
percent
the
number
and
percentages
that
have
received
both
doses
or
two
doses
of
modern
and
pfizer,
and
then
the
one
of
j
j.
I
Okay
and
then
one
more
final
question
for
you,
and
I
think
this
has
been
sort
of
battled
around
by
the
professionals.
If
you
have
been
fully
vaccinated,
you
are
still
potential
a
carrier
or
spreader
of
the
virus.
Is
that
the
recognized
science
on
this.
AI
So
I'm
really
just
reading
the
guidance
you
know
like
you
are,
and
having
regular
conversations
with
our
friends
over
at
musc
to
to
try
to
have
as
much
information
for
you
all
as
I
possibly
can.
But
the
most
recent
guidance
from
cdc
that
I
looked
at
just
the
other
day
was
that
you
know
if
you've
been
fully
vaccinated.
AI
AH
Yes,
sir,
thank
you
tracy.
What
percent
of
south
carolinians,
16
and
older
are
eligible
for
the
vaccine.
AI
AH
AI
AH
AH
Also
have
a
clinic
coming
up
april
21st,
correct,
arthur
christopher.
AI
AH
Me,
and
if
you
don't
mind,
I've
just
got
one
more
thing
to
say,
because
you've
got
the
perfect
slide,
pulled
up
right
now:
zero,
active
cases
and
city
employees.
That's
something
to
be
really
proud
of.
You
know
we
don't
get
a
lot
of
opportunity
to
praise
our
hard
work
during
these
tough
times,
but
that's
something
to
be
very,
very
proud
of
as
a
city,
and
I
hope
now
that
we're
at
zero
and
we're
doing
such
a
great
job
and
our
city
employees
are
getting
vaccinated.
AH
I
know
24
percent
isn't
as
high
as
we'd
like
it,
but
are
you
also
on
mute?
Is
yourself
yeah?
I
don't
know
what
that
noise
is
24
is
is
better
than
it
was
two
weeks
ago
when
you
reported
these
numbers,
so
we're
moving
in
the
right
direction.
AH
AH
If
we
can
get
to
a
point
where
we
can
allow
our
contractors
to
get
into
the
permit
center
normal
business
hours
again,
I
know
they're
in
the
office
full
days,
but
contractors
can
only
go
into
the
permit
center
from
10
to
3.,
and
I
hope
we
can
get
to
a
point
pretty
soon
that
contractors,
especially
small
business
owners,
can
get
in
there
and
get
their
permits
for
normal
business
hours.
Thank
you.
B
J
If
it
hasn't,
are
we
looking
at
whether
or
not
we
should
continue
remotely
in
terms
of
some
of
our
functions
and
as
a
result,
save
not
only
the
city
dollars
but
also
save
individual
dollars?
Are
we
tracking
data
that
way.
AI
So
we
have,
we
have
been
track.
We
recently
stopped
as
many
employees
are
now
getting
vaccinated
and
taking
advantage
of
vaccination
opportunities.
AI
We
recently
stopped
tracking
those
data
points,
but
up
until
really,
just
a
few
weeks
ago,
we
were
tracking
every
day
people
who
were
out
sick
who
was
working
remotely
and
that
sort
of
thing,
so
we
have
really
a
full
year
of
that
information,
and
I
I'd
like
to
I'll
let
the
mayor
kind
of
talk
about
plans
going
forward.
Maybe.
AI
Yeah
I
mean
I
will
say
I
will
say
I.
I
think
that
at
least
my
my
working
with
all
the
departments
and
people
that
have
been
working
remotely
and
I
usually
get
a
lot
of
complaints
when
things
aren't
happening
and
and
and
that
has
not
happened-
I
feel
like
there's.
The
productivity
has
been
very
high
with
everybody
really
trying
to
figure
out
how
to
get
things
done,
and
it's
been.
It's
been
amazing:
the
teamwork
across
the
whole
organization,
not
just
within
departments
but
across
departments.
AI
AI
H
Oh,
mr
may
I
have
one
more
question
for
tracy
tracy
real
popular
today
by
the
way
councilmember
and
I
agree
with
councilman
griffin.
This
is
a
very
powerful
slide
and
that
zero
looks
wonderful
but-
and
I
agree
with
saying
about
you-
know
like
disclosure
with
health
issues.
But
how
are
we
validating
this
24
fully
vaccinated
and
then
the
16
natural
immunity?
In
other
words,
where
do
we
go
to
get
the
numbers
to
to
back
that
up.
AI
So
that's
a
really
great
question,
so
our
hr
department
put
together
a
wonderful
incentive
program
for
for
employees.
So
when
you
get
vaccinated
you,
you
sent
a
copy
of
your
vaccination
card
over
to
hr.
They
keep
it
confidential.
AI
We
I
don't
get
information
on
who's
been
vaccinated
and
who
hasn't
they
just
report
to
out
total
numbers
of
who's
been
vaccinated
or
who
they've
gotten
the
the
completed
vaccination
cards
for
I'll.
AL
AI
So
so
not
everybody
is
turning
in
their
cards
of
course,
and
so
that's
our
that's
our
best
estimate
based
on
the
cards
that
we
have
and
then,
of
course,
on
the
natural
immunity.
We
did
all
of
our
contact
tracing
and
everything
like
that
in-house.
AI
So
and
so
again,
all
of
that
information
was
kept
confidential
in
the
hr
department,
but
they
did
keep
a
running
database
if
you
will
of
all
the
people
who
had
tested
positive
and
all
the
contact
tracing
that
they
did.
H
AI

AI
AM
Yes,
sir
good
evening,
mr
mayor
members
of
council,
thanks
tracy
for
all
that
you
continue
to
do
to
help
the
team.
It
really
has
been
a
team
push,
as
she
said
for
now
well
over
a
year,
we're
starting
to
transition
in
emergency
management
into
some
focusing
on
hurricane
preparations
as
well
june,
june's
right
around
the
corner.
So
the
hurricane
task
force
is
back
back
to
work,
reassembled
and
and
marched
us
down
the
road
of
that
as
well
so
musc
administered
5272
vaccines.

Last
week,
bringing
our
total

city
supported

up
to

four
hundred

vaccine
clinic
today
and
will
be
hosting
another
one.
Tomorrow,
ferris
teeter
plans
on
administering
800
modern
vaccine
vaccinations
per
day.
Hours
of
operation
will
be
from
9
00
am
until
5.
AM
AM
AM
You
saw
the
the
percentage
of
employees
that
have
shown
proof
of
vaccination,
we're
working
with
the
with
the
latinx
advisory
council
to
communicate
important
vaccine
related
information
to
the
spanish
speaking
community.
We've
had
conversations
with
them
several
times
over
the
last
week
or
so
most
recently.
AM
Today,
emergency
management
is
working
with
miss
lydia
cotton
of
that
advisory
council
to
establish
a
plan
for
a
grassroots
effort
to
actually
go
to
john's
island
and
with
the
translator
and
and
and
meet
with
folks
to
just
to
provide
information
answer
questions
we
hope
to
have
somebody
from
maybe
the
medical
university
there
to
assist
us
as,
like
tracy
said
we're,
not
medical
professionals,
we're
just
doing
the
best
we
can
to
get
the
information
out
there
as
accurately
as
possible.
AM
We
have
three
dates
coming
coming
up
with
sixteen
hundred
fifteen
hundred
and
an
additional
sixteen
hundred
for
forty
seven
hundred
total
for
additional
efforts
coming
up.
So
we're
continuing
to
press
forward
with
this
and
and
we'll
continue
to
do
so
as
long
as
as
necessary.
AM
That's
it
for
me
happy
to
take
questions.
Q
J
Any
project
any
projections
on
when
we
may
reach
full
back
fast
vaccination
in
the
city.
AI
Oh
goodness,
you
know,
I
guess
the
it
really
depends
on
on
you
know
if
we
keep
getting
the
the
supply
of
vaccinations,
it's
been
on
a
steady
increase
but,
as
you
might
have
seen
from
the
you
might
remember,
from
the
chart
distribution
it,
it
does
go
up
and
down
a
little
bit
so
once
we
just
continue
to
get
more
supply,
I
think
that's
I
mean
that's
just
going
to
be
the
key.
The
the
demand
currently
still
seems
to
be
outweighing
the
supply,
so.
AM
I
mean
what
I
can
tell
you
is
federer
is
knocking
it
out
of
the
park.
Obviously
the
medical
mirrors.
You
know
mecklen
university
with
when
he
lockwood
is
knocking
out
a
park
every
day.
Local
places
of
worship
have
really
stepped
up
and
we've
established
some
dates
with
them.
AM
We're
looking
at
john's,
island
and
and
some
areas,
you
know
maybe
out
out
there,
that
we
can
help
with
the
latinx
community,
so
we're
just
gonna
keep
pushing
and
get
them
done
as
quickly
as
we
can
we
had
at
lunchtime
today
we
had
about
200
additional
vaccines
that
were
yet
to
be
spoken
for
today,
and
so
we
did
a
push
with
the
media
jack
o'toole
in
his
office
and
got
it
out
there
just
in
nick
of
time
for
for
the
lunch
news
broadcast,
and
we
saw
a
huge
wave
of
folks
come
in
in
the
afternoon
at
that
time.
AM
We
had
500
available
for
tomorrow,
and
I
expect
that
many
of
those
have
been
spoken
for,
but
we'll
we'll
do
another
push
tomorrow
as
well.
B
Q
B
Councilmember
griffin's
point
is
is
very
pertinent
that
everyone
over
16
is
now
eligible
and,
and
a
lot
of
folks
didn't
even
realize
that
so
there's
a
lot
of
population
still
out
there
that
hadn't
made
their
reservation
and
hadn't
hadn't
made
plans
yet,
and
so
so
the
more
we
can
promote
this.
The
sooner
we
get
to
that
hurt
immunity
and
the
sooner
we
all
get
back
to
a
new
normal.
B
AN
Good
evening,
everybody
first
item
on
your
agenda
is
item
i4,
which
is
an
extension
for
30
days
to
may
13th
of
the
local
declaration
of
state
of
emergency.
AN
This
is
consistent
with
the
governor's
executive
order,
2021-18
that
was
issued
on
april
7,
where
he
extended
the
state
of
emergency
in
the
state
due
in
part
to
the
continuing
spread
of
covet
in
the
state
and
and
throughout
all
the
counties.
That's
item
i4
item
i5
is
our
standard
extension
for
30
days
of
a
number
of
ordinances
that
have
been
in
place
for
a
while.
AN
I
just
want
to
read
through
them
with
you
and
bring
to
your
attention
a
proposed
amendment
to
the
to
the
mask
ordinance
so
item
i5
again
is
the
extension
of
certain
existing
emergency
ordinances.
The
extensions
would
be
for
30
days
to
may
20.
Excuse
me,
may
13
2021,
and
we
are
talking
about
three
six:
seven
ordinances
they're
listed
on
page
six
of
item
i5
in
your
agenda
package.
AN
It's
the
consumer
price
gouging.
It's
the
suspension
of
the
requirement
of
the
physical
presence
of
council
members
at
council.
It's
the
emergency
ordinance
regarding
temporary
procedures
for
public
hearings.
It's
the
emergency
ordinance
on
a
fort,
allowing
affordable
housing
units
to
be
approved
by
an
administrative
officer.
AN
It's
the
emergency
ordinance
requested
by
the
police
department
requiring
parade
permits
to
be
limited
to
25
or
more,
and
then
the
last
one
is
the
one
that
relates
to
masks
and
mask
wearing
in
the
city,
and
that
is
currently
ordinance
2021-024
and
at
the
mayor's
request,
I
sent
to
all
of
you
this
afternoon.
Hopefully
you've
all
received
it
a
proposed
amendment
to
that
ordinance
and
if
you'll
give
me
a
second,
I
will
just
quickly
summarize
what
the
proposed
amendment
would
be.
AN
There
are
a
couple
of
key
changes
and-
and
I
I
believe
that
this
came
about
as
a
result
of
a
couple
different
things-
one
of
course,
looking
at
the
continuing
guidance
from
the
cdc
on
mask
wearing,
taking
a
look
at
what
is
transpiring
in
our
community
and
also
based
on
conversations
that
people
on
the
task
force
have
had
with
musc,
and
so
the
first
key
change
is
that
we
are
strongly
encouraging
mass
to
be
worn
in
all
public
places.
AN
However,
we
have
tailored
or
limited
the
number
of
specific
public
places
where
masks
would
now
be
required
and
those
are
listed
in
the
proposed
amendment
and
they're.
Basically,
persons
entering
into
city-owned
buildings
or
facilities
would
be
required
to
wear
a
mask
both
patrons
and
employees,
in
retail
businesses
and
in
restaurants,
while
providing
or
using
commercial
or
public
transportation,
and,
however,
tours
are
excluded
from
that
going
forward.
AN
If
the
amendment
were
approved
and
then
participating
in
a
city
permitted
event,
so
those
would
be
specific
categories
where
wearing
the
mask
would
still
be
required
in
public
places.
The
last
is
to
clarify
or
to
basically
state
that
masks
would
not
be
required
in
office
environments
where
six
feet
of
social
distancing
could
be
maintained.
AN
V
AH
AH
AH
Now
every
one
of
us
is
not
above
the
law,
but
every
one
of
us,
in
some
capacity
I'm
sure,
has
broken
this
ordinance
in
some
way
shape
or
form
because
it's
just
impossible
to
adhere
by
you
know.
I've
been
accused
council
member
sheila,
councilman
brady.
We
were
out
picking
up
trash
in
our
district
and
we
took
a
picture
without
our
mass
on
we
clearly
should
we
be
fined
a
hundred
dollars.
AH
AH
What
we're
doing
here
at
this
point,
and
so
I
would
love
to
support
this
new
amendment
with
one
condition:
let's
get
rid
of
the
fines,
it's
time
to
quit,
finding
our
citizens
finding
the
people
that
are
coming
to
this
city.
We
have
written
eighty
or
ninety
thousand
dollars
worth
of
mass
fines.
People
get
the
point.
AH
AO
Thank
you,
mr
mayor
susan.
I
just
have
a
question.
I
was
making
some
notes,
as
you
were,
going
through
the
various
emergency
ordinances
and
what's
affected,
and
my
head
spins
a
little
bit
because
we've
done
it
so
many
times
didn't.
We
tie
the
relief
from
the
parking
requirements
in
the
king
street
corridor
to
the
emergency
ordinance,
or
did
we
get
beyond
that.
AO
AN
B
R
Councilmember
sheila.
Thank
you,
mr
mayor.
I
think
you
can
hear
me
yeah.
Okay,
since
talking
to
tracy,
I
actually
pulled
up
the
musc
website
and
I'm
looking
at
the
musc
edu
article
from
april
8th.
That
does
say
the
immunity
of
the
coronavirus
in
the
state
has
hits
above
60
percent
statewide,
and
you
know
as
fast
as
this
vaccine
is
rolled
out
and
ramped
up.
Certainly
that
number
has
already
increased
and
it's
going
to
continue
to
increase.
R
The
better
news
is
the
majority
of
those
being
vaccinated
are
people
that
were
the
ones
that
would
be
hospitalized
or
would
get
very,
very
sick
from
this,
and
I'm
sure
that
percentage
of
people
is
much
higher
than
60
percent.
If
it's
60
percent
across
the
state,
you
know
when
you
go
back
to
our
innovate.charleston-sc.gov,
the
the
website
that
tracy
helps
us
with
you.
R
But
if
you
look
back
one
month
or
four
weeks,
you'll
see
that
those
cases
have
dropped.
If
you
go
to
that
website,
you
can
clearly
see
that
those
cases
have
dropped
almost
20
percent
since
march
15th,
when
we
were
16
when
we
were
talking
about
this
before
but
four
weeks
ago,
and
over
the
last
week,
it's
made
a
significant
drop.
You
can
see
it
when
you
look
at
the
chart.
R
E
Yes,
thank
you,
mr
mayor.
I
won't
I'll
be
brief.
I
want
to
thank
council
members,
griffin
and
sheila
for
coming
out
for
the
west
ashley
circle
cleanup.
We
had
our
bright
orange
safety
vests
on
it
was
a
great
time,
but
I
wanted
to
just
talk
a
little
bit
and
I
appreciate
councilmember
sheila
sharing
those
statistics
as
well
as
the
caller
had
mentioned
last
month.
When
I
had
spoke
about
voting
to
extend
the
mass
mandate.
E
We
wanted
to
make
sure
that
the
light
at
the
end
of
the
tunnel
was
not
the
train,
that
it
was
in
fact
daylight,
and
I
think
you
can
see.
I've
been
looking
at
the
same
numbers
that
councilmember
shealy
has
done
with
the
vaccine
available
for
ages,
16
plus
adding
in
people
who
already
have
immunity
and
the
declining
cases.
E
I
think
we
can
definitively
say
that
there
is
daylight
here
at
the
end
and
so
therefore
I'll
be
voting
to
not
extend
the
ordinance,
because
I
agree
with
council
member
sheila
that
it
has
served
its
purpose
and
we're
at
the
point
where
we
can
turn
the
corner,
because
if
you
rewind
back
to
when
we
first
imposed
the
mask
mandate,
we
said
we
wanted
to
get
to
the
point
where
everyone
that
wanted
a
vaccine
could
have
one
and
we're
at
that
point
now.
J
Yeah,
mr
mayor,
well,
the
numbers
look
great
now
I
kind
of
agree
with
musc
that
the
next
30
days
will
really
tell
the
story
to
determine
whether
or
not
these
variants
will
have
an
effect
with
regard
to
spiking.
If
any,
so,
I
will
vote
for
this
to
be
maintained.
J
I
don't
think
that
we
need
to
declare
victory
to
too
quickly
because
we're
really
not
quite
out
of
the
woods
yet.
We've
seen
what
has
happened
in
other
countries,
we've
seen
what
has
happened
in
other
states
where
the
numbers
are
going
up
instead
of
coming
down
and
yes,
we're
at
a
plateau.
J
But
I
do
think
that
we
owe
ourselves-
and
we
owe
our
constituents
a
bit
more
time
and
to
be
consistent
with
what
the
sign
says
be
consistent
with
the
recommendations
from
musc,
and
I,
if,
if
I
read
it
correctly,
tracy
and
correct
me,
if
I'm
wrong,
they're,
recommending
to
continue
to
wear
masks,
at
least
until
we
get
data
to
determine
whether
or
not
the
variants
will
have
an
effect.
J
We
also
know
that
the
variants
can
fight
against
some
of
not.
We
know
that
the
the
we
are
not
protected,
even
if
we're
back
back
vaccinated
against
some
of
these
variants.
J
So
I
just
think
that
there's
just
too
much
out
there
that's
unknown,
and
I
think
that
the
city
of
charleston
should
continue
to
be
a
leader
and
I've
not
always
agreed
with
recommendations
that
came
from
the
state
level.
J
I
just
don't
want
to
be
a
part
of
a
situation
that
we
vote
in
such
a
way
that
we
put
our
people
in
harm's
way.
I'm
not
going
to
be
a
part
of
that
and
it's
consistent
with
where
I've
been
coming
from
throughout
this
this
pandemic.
J
I
just
think
that
it's
too
early
for
us
to
just
abandon,
I
agree
with
everybody.
This
city
looks
wide
open,
mom,
pleasant,
looks
wide
open.
The
traffic
is
unbelievable,
you're,
absolutely
correct,
but
anytime,
I'm
out
there
I'm
fearful
that
people
may
needlessly
be
putting
themselves
in
harm's
way,
so
just
wanted
to
make
sure
that
the
record
reflects
that
we
don't
have
enough
information
on
the
variance
and
its
effect
on
folks
who
are
vaccinated,
fascinate
vaccinated
and
just
the
effects
in
general,
so
lifting
any
restrictions.
At
this
point,
I
would
not
support.
B
J
B
You
councilmember,
and
it
is
true
if
I
may
make
a
comment
to
myself-
that
the
numbers
have
leveled
out,
I'm
so
proud
of
our
team
for
helping
our
community
get
more
vaccinations
out.
Yes,
everyone
over
16
is
eligible,
but
a
lot
of
younger
folks
haven't
gotten
the
word
yet
we're
still
in
a
situation
where
it's
a
supply
is
a
limiting
factor,
supply
of
of
vaccinations,
even
though
they're
better
than
they
were
a
month
ago,
there's
still
many
more
people
to
be
vaccinated.
B
B
That
being
said,
it's
clear
to
me
that
the
the
light
we
see
councilmember
brady
is
is
is
sunlight
and
we
we
can
see
the
clearing
up
ahead,
we're
not
quite
out
of
the
woods
but
it's
daylight,
and
we
can
see
it.
B
Science
has
shown
us
that
the
transmission
is
mostly
by
aerosol
particles
and
mostly
indoors,
where
ventilation
is
not
as
good
as
being
outdoors
so
so
I
think
this
amendment
to
the
mass
ordinance
is
a
most
reasonable
step.
It
still
recommends
a
wearing
of
a
mask
in
all
public
places,
but
basically
outdoors,
it's
not
required
it's
just
recommended
and
indoors.
It
would
still
be
required.
B
Dan
riccio
will
tell
us
that
most
of
our
experience
from
an
enforcement
level
frankly
for
indoors
has
been
about
education
and
and
not
about
writing
tickets.
You
know
it
was
just
from
a
practical
point
of
view.
That's
the
way
the
enforcement
was
easiest
to
to
to
to
get
done
and
most
of
the
tickets
that
we've
written
frankly
were
for
people
who
were
outdoors
so
so
this
change
in
the
ordinance
would
would
make
a
a
meaningful
change
in
in
the
enforcement
council
member
griffin.
B
It
would
make
it
a
a
lot
easier
for
our
team.
It
would
be
more
focused
on
education
and
I
I'd
recommend
that
we
keep
this
alive
in
this
modified
version.
I
think
it's
a
step-by-step
process
and
we're
we're
we're
almost
out
of
the
woods,
but
not
quite
there.
Yet
so
could
I
council,
member
appel
and
then
jackson.
AK
Thank
you,
mr
mayor,
and
you
know
I
was
out
on
upper
king
street
saturday
night
and
council
member
gregory.
It
doesn't
feel
like
things
are
back
open.
Things
are
back
open
in
a
very
big
way
and
things
have
been
open
since
last
summer
we
had
a
month
and
maybe
a
week
or
so
where,
under
the
governor's
order,
restaurants
were
closed
for
indoor
service
and
some
other
businesses
were
closed.
AK
and
we
have
made
progress.
Vaccinations
are
up,
it's
it's
a
great
thing
and
it's
an
exciting
thing,
but
guys
here's
the
reality.
There
are
an
astonishingly
high
percentage
of
people
in
this
country
that
will
never
get
a
vaccine
because
they
believe
in
q
anon
and
they
get
misinformation
from
all
kinds
of
sources.
AK
We
have
a
problem
in
this
country
about
education
and
listening
to
experts
and
misinformation.
Guys
we're
not
going
to
have
the
numbers
ever
go
to
zero,
we're
never
going
to
have
the
vaccinations
get
to
where
they're
supposed
to
be,
and
it
has
nothing
to
do
with
supply.
It
has
to
do
with
people's
will
and
desire,
so
we
have
to
be
realistic
of
what
the
success
parameters
are
here.
AK
The
economy
is
wide
open
right
now
it
is
wide
open
and
as
a
product
of
that,
we
have
got
an
enormous
amount
of
people
out
in
the
streets
enjoying
our
city
and
the
thing
that's
changed.
My
thinking
is
the
impact
of
our
mass
ordinance
on
our
front
line.
Livability
department
code
enforcers
who've,
been
called
nazis.
AK
Who've
been
called
the
gestapo
who've
been
called
the
worst
names
in
the
world
by
you
know.
I
I
it's
just
so
sad
and
pathetic
to
even
think
about
the
way
people
are
over
emotionalizing
getting
triggered
by
this
stuff,
making
this
some
sort
of
paul
revere
liberty,
vision,
quest
of
some
kind.
It's
sad
and
it's
pathetic,
mature
educated
countries
around
the
world.
You
don't
see
this
in
israel.
AK
AK
AK
You
know,
72
views
on
their
on
their
on
their
youtube
page
or
something
and
think
they're
some
celebrity
or
something
it's
sad
and,
as
our
city
starts,
to
open
up
more
and
more
we're
going
to
need
our
livability
people
doing
other
things.
We're
going
to
need
our
charleston
police
officers
doing
other
things
and
the
reality
of
it
is
is
the
people
that
want
to
wear
a
mask?
Are
you're
gonna,
wear,
wear
a
mask?
AK
Okay
law
can
only
go
so
far.
Okay
law
is
about
setting
norms,
it's
about
setting
societal
expectations
and
trying
to
set
a
good
example,
and
I
think
we've
done
that
in
a
very
strong
way
over
the
past
year,
but
we're
at
a
point
right
now,
where
I
believe
if
we
were
to
pass
this
amended
ordinance,
which
I'm
in
support
of
we'll
see
people
wearing
masks
out
on
the
street
tomorrow,
we'll
see
people
not
wearing
masks
on
the
street
tomorrow.
AK
AK
There
is
gonna
jump
out
and
give
him
a
ticket
they're
doing
it,
because
they're
decent
people
they're
doing
it
because
they're
following
the
cdc's
guidelines,
we
are
where
we
are
in
this
country
on
this
issue,
and
I
think
that
by
passing
this
amended
ordinance,
which
I
think
strikes
the
right
balance,
we're
taking
the
brunt
off
of
our
front
line.
Livability
people
we're
taking
the
brunt
off
of
our
charleston
police
department,
which
god
knows
has
been
through
a
lot
over
the
past
year
or
so
and
I'll
add
one
other
point.
AK
AK
We
need
to
be
judicious
about
when
we
send
our
liveability
officers
into
an
interaction
with
the
public.
We
need
to
be
judicious
when
we
send
our
charleston
police
department
into
an
interaction
with
somebody
in
the
public,
because
these
days
things
can
get
crazy
and
it's
unfair
for
us
to
put
our
people
in
that
situation
we
need
to.
We
need
to
just
be
cognizant
of
that.
So
I
think
this
is
a
good
idea.
I
I
really
you
know
the
more.
AK
I
started
to
think
about
the
impact
on
our
frontline
staff,
the
more
that
this
start
started
to
become
a
reality
for
me,
but
guys
we
have
to
realize
that
you
know,
while
we've
made
great
progress
on
kovid,
the
the
the
the
end
game
here
is
not
zero
cases.
The
end
game
is
not
we're.
Never
going
to
be
new
zealand
all
right,
we're
never
going
to
be
able
to
just
stamp
this
thing
out.
AK
Kobe
is
going
to
be
with
us
for
a
long
time
it's
here,
and
it
falls
upon
us
as
individuals
to
set
good
examples
to
follow
the
guidance
to
stay
on
top
of
the
news
and
the
developments,
but
with
an
economy.
That's
wide
open,
it's
time
for
us
to
begin
to
get
back,
get
back
into
the
normal
swing
of
things
I
mean
I
I
agree.
I
think
we
need
to
be
meeting
person
as
soon
as
we
can.
I
agree
we
need
to
have
our
permit
center
opened
up.
AK
You
know
there's
a
lot
of
positive
benefits
that
are
going
to
come
out
of
covet.
You
know
using
zoom
for
all
kinds
of
different
meetings,
things
of
that
nature,
but
we
can't
allow
too
much
of
the
covid
norm
to
become
ensconce
into
the
way
we
do
business
we
we
have
to
continue
to
strike
proper
balances
and
reopen
and
readjust
in
a
reasonable,
deliberate
way.
So
I'm
in
support
of
the
ordinance.
AK
AA
Thank
you.
I'm
happy
to
associate
myself
with
the
council
members
who
are
going
to
support
this
revised
version
of
the
ordinance.
I
do
think
it's.
It
strikes
a
really
good
balance.
AA
AA
Knowing
that
even
I
mean
the
good
thing,
is
people
are
coming
back
to
charleston
and
we
need
we
need
them
and
we
need
their
revenue
and
we
want
them
to
experience
our
city
in
the
way
that
we
we
are
our
pleasure
to
do,
but
those
numbers
are
impossible
to
enforce
on.
So
we
are
going
to
have
to
learn
how
to
trust
the
goodwill
of
people
who
are
conscientious,
looking
out
for
others
living
by
the
golden
rule.
AA
Whatever
your
faith
leads
you
to
call
it,
I
I'm
not
ready
to
give
up
on
the
fact
that
we
just
are
going
to
have
a
bunch
of
stubborn.
You
know
self-centered
people
not
wearing
a
mask.
I
do
feel
like
as
we
we
need
to
work
hard
about
about
getting
vaccines.
AA
I
mean
I
do
feel
like
we
need
to
work
hard
to
make
sure
that
we
are
distributing
the
vaccination
opportunities
and
encouraging
them
and
educating
them,
and
I
do
think
that
our
own
city,
along
with
all
the
other
efforts
in
the
region,
has
made
a
huge
inroad
in
educating
people
who
historically
have
had
have
had
reasons
to
fear.
You
know
big
brother
enforcing
things
that
have
not
have
not
been
respectful
of
people's
health
and
well-being.
AA
So
I
think
those
are
the
people
that
I
want
us
to
serve.
People
who
are
naturally
worried
about
historical
trends
that
would
be
continued
in
this
new
era
of
government.
You
know
needing
to
take
take
an
action
like
this
in
the
vaccination
world,
but
I
I
I
do
feel
like
we're
we're
making
progress
and
we're
gonna
peel
off
people
a
few
at
a
time.
You
know,
church
by
church,
civic
center
by
civic
center
neighborhood
by
neighborhood
playground
by
playground,
and
I
think
we
need
to
continue
to
work
hard
at
that.
AA
I
hope
we
get
to
the
day
where
we
have
a
lot
more
demand
than
we
do
supply.
I
do
worry
about
the
announcement
that
was
made
today,
but
we'll
just
see
how
that
goes
with
johnson
and
johnson
and
get
past
that
I
I
am
so
I'm
gonna
vote
for
this.
I
did
have
a
couple
of
just
detailed
questions
under
the
section
five
exceptions
list.
AA
Q
AN
So
yeah
and
then
so
we're
straight
we're
striking
that,
but
also
any
anybody
rising.
Hopefully
you
can
hear
me
utilizing
public
or
commercial
transportation
that
would
still
be
required.
So
that's
stricken
it's
it.
These
crossouts
in
section
four,
are
really
an
effort
to
reflect
what
has
been
transpiring
in
the
city.
AN
Since
you
know
the
last
couple
months,
there's
no
need
for
the
personal
vehicle
one
because,
as
as
the
council
member
seeking
said,
you're
going
to
be
outside
that's
covered
in
the
new
section,
four,
if
you're
in
a
public
or
commercial
transportation,
that's
going
to
be
covered
in
section,
I'm
sorry
section
three,
this
will
be
covered
in
section
four.
B
AA
AN
AA
AN
AA
AO
Council
member
seeking
thank
you,
mr
mayor
and
I'll,
be
brief
because
there's
been
much
said
about
this
already,
but
I
was
struck
by
the
opening
comments
you
made
mayor
about
we're
sort
of
in
an
education
phase.
At
this
point
we
need
to
make
sure
people
know
where
we
are
what's
going
on,
what's
available
to
them
in
terms
of
immunization,
what
the
numbers
really
look
like
and
what
good
responsible
behavior
is.
Councilmember
jackson
noted
that
the
way
we
have
an
ordinance
now
is
impossible
to
enforce
and
I
was
taken.
AO
I
listened
very
carefully
to
council,
member
pels
and
passion
plea
to
take
this
out
of
dan
riccio's
hands
and
get
him
off
the
front
lines
because
of
the
abuse
that
he's
been
taking
and
we've
all
seen
it
I
mean
if
you've
been
on
king
street
and
seen
anybody
who's
in
code
enforcement,
they've
gotten
crushed
out
there.
I
just
don't
think
the
amended
ordinance
with
all
due
respect.
Councilman
rappel
does
that
because
it
still
makes
it
a
violation
of
our
city
code
and
it's
finable
to
be
in
certain
places
without
your
mask
on.
AO
So
what
I
would
suggest
humbly
is
a
compromise
on
this,
mr
mayor
and
fellow
council
members,
that
we
take
the
ticket
book
out
of
dan's
hands
and
put
some
masks
in
his
hands
and
send
them
out
there
and
go
forward
and
do
some
education
and
let
people
who
are
responsible
go
out
there
and
be
responsible,
we'll
have
it
on
the
books
that
you
have
to
wear
in
certain
places
and
let's
go
out
there
and
educate
it.
But
if
we
know
that
it
can't
be
enforced,
we
know
that
they've
been
abused.
AO
The
current
ordinance
still
requires
them
to
actually
really
go
to
even
greater
lengths
to
enforce
to
give
out
tickets
because
they
go
inside.
I
just
think
that
we're
setting
up
a
logical
dichotomy
that
will
never
work
and
is
not
consistent
with
reality.
So
if
it
pulls
away
the
ticketing
part
of
it
and
puts
mass
in
dan's
hands,
I'm
in
favor
of
it,
it
didn't.
V
AO
That
motion,
if,
if
not
well,
you
said
it,
you
didn't
make
a
motion.
If
it
doesn't,
then
I
think
we
need
to
rethink
this.
So
those
are
my
two
cents
worth
and
I
would
I
would.
AO
P
Thank
you
mayor.
I
I'd
like
to
just
second
councilman
seeking's
approach
on
this.
I
get
confident
of
of
getting
dan
off
the
front
lines.
I
just
want
to
say
to
dan
and
everybody
in
livability.
P
I
know
it's
been
a
crazy
year
and
you're
just
doing
your
job
as
as
a
civil
servant.
So
I
just
want
to
say
thank
you.
I
would
be
completely
in
favor
of
this.
If
we
can,
we
can
get
dan
off
the
front
lines
and
about
to
have
to
make
a
motion
I'm
happy
to,
but
I
do
want
to
just
say
a
couple
things
before
I
conclude,
which
is:
we
have
to
set
a
calendar
date
and
work
towards
that
calendar
date
of
getting
back
into
council
and
put
it
on
the
calendar.
P
Let's
focus
on
it,
let's
work
toward
it
and
if
things
change
in
the
ground
we
shift,
but
we've
got
to
get
back
to
to
working
in
council,
and
I
will
say
we
got
to
get
back
to
city
operations
in
person
and
I
will
say:
councilman
griffin
is
absolutely
correct.
I've
heard
from
small
business
owners
and
contractors
and
the
difficulty
in
doing
the
work
that
they're
doing
in
the
job
that
they're
doing
when
they
can't
get
a
hold
of
somebody
in
person
is
immense.
So
I
will
just
I
will
respectfully
disagree
with
tracy.
P
Our
job
is
to
work
with
people
we're
not
a
tech
company,
we're
not
amazon.
Our
job
is
to
work
directly
with
our
constituents,
and
that
requires
face-to-face
meetings.
We've
got
to
get
back
to
that,
so
councilman
griffin.
Thanks
for
bringing
that
up,
I
know
most
of
the
council.
Members
are
supportive
of
that.
P
I
just
want
to
make
sure
we
get
something
on
the
books
and
start
planning
for
a
date
in
the
future
to
get
back
to
council
and
opening
city
up
for
for
the
work
that
we
do,
which
is
working
directly
with
our
citizens.
So
those
are
my
comments
if
I
have
to
make
a
motion
to
to
amend
this,
I'm
happy
to
do
that.
Mr.
H
Mayor,
I
ask
for
a
point
of
order.
I
think
councilman
sacrament
has
a
great
point
there.
Do
we
have
a
motion
on
the
floor?
That's
my
point.
That's.
P
I'd
like
to
I'd
like
to
amend
the
ordinance
to
remove
any
kind
of-
I
guess-
I'm
not
an
attorney,
so
I
might
need
help
from.
A
V
A
B
Yeah
order
order,
we
still
got
plenty
of
masks
to
give
out
okay,
and
this
motion
is
just
applying
to
the
to
the
one
we'll
just
take
this
one
mask
ordinance
and
then
we'll
come
back
on
the
emergency,
a
state
of
emergency
in
the
other
ordinance,
since
we've
had
all
this
discussion,
if
that's
okay
with
everybody,
okay.
So
any
further
discussion
on
the
amended
amendment
to
the
mass
coordinates
council
membership.
I
Thank
you,
mr
mayor,
and,
and
I'm
fine
to
go
along
with
the
commitment
to
the
amendment.
I
just
want
to
ask
susan
to
sort
of
clarify
for
us.
We
passed
this
ordinance
with
without
the
penalty
component
in
there.
What
is
the
impact
on
institutions?
Businesses,
restaurants,
that
do
not
comply
with
this
ordinance?
Nothing.
AN
I
AN
Well,
there
is
a
provision
in
the
ordinance
already
that
talks
about
working
in
the
enforcement
section.
It
talks
about
the
city,
fire
and
other
livability
working
with
businesses
and
communities
to
develop
marketing
strategy.
Signage,
mask
availability,
so
so,
in
effect,
what
this
is
is
an
expression
of
council's
view
and
a
direction
for
livability
and
other
officers
to
work
with
the
community.
I
So
if
I'm
a
business
owner
or
an
institution-
and
I
want
to
require
mass
being
born
inside
my
my
restaurant,
my
business,
my
house
of
worship-
do
I
have
that
option
to
enforce
and
require
people
to
wear
a
mask
inside
that
house
of
worship
that
restaurant,
that
retail
establishment
that
hotel,
whatever.
AN
I
So
that
so
that
that
that
is,
that
business
person
or
that
establishment
has
the
right
to
say
to
a
patron
or
a
congregant,
I'm
requiring
you
to
wear
a
mask,
because
that's
the
city
ordinance
inside
my
establishment,
right
and
then-
and
I
think
I'm
saying
this
out
loud
as
a
rhetorical
exercise,
so
that
the
public
understands
what
we're
doing
here
and
appreciates
the
impact
of
all
of
us,
because
there
are.
I
I
know
that
several
institutions
that
want
to
require
this
to
to
be
in
effect
and
that
they
have
that
option
of
of
doing
that.
My
second
question,
my
second
follow-up
question
with
all
this
is
because
I
have
talked
to
dave
echols
about
the
rubber
dogs
and-
and
he
was
very
kind
in
his
presentation
tonight.
I
How
is
this
going
to
impact
his
ability
to
go
operate
the
rividox
at
the
joe
stadium?
If
he
wants
to
do
it
at
50
capacity.
AN
At
this
point,
we
have
not
received
a
request
from
him,
but
you
know,
certainly
the
task
force
will
look
at
it
and,
and
he
has
brought
to
the
city
contention.
I
know
this.
G
AN
I
I
just
want
to
echo
some
of
the
comments
that
that
we
we've
heard
tonight.
I
don't
want
to
rehash
all
of
that,
but
I
think
there
is
a
huge
mass
fatigue
going
into
our
community,
like
every
other
ordinance
that
are
that
has
passed.
It
is
based
upon
goodwill.
We
do
not
have
a
police
officer
at
every
intersection,
whether
or
not
someone's
going
to
stop
at
that.
I
Stop
sign
to
stop
that
that
red
light
we
don't
have
police
officers
doing
radar
at
every
roadway
to
see
if
someone
is
speeding,
we
operate,
and
hopefully
this
community
will
continue
to
operate
with
goodwill
and
good
intentions
of
following
the
this
ordinance.
The
way
that
we
have
got
it
proposed
to
be
amended,
but
we
do
have
to
take
in
consideration
the
lessons
that
we
had
over
100
years
ago,
when
this
city
was
encouraged
to
open
back
up
too
soon,
and
it
had
a
catastrophic
impact
on
our
community.
I
Several
more
people
died
because
we
opened
up
too
soon
and
the
variance
is
something
we
cannot
take
lightly.
There's
a
huge
problem.
We
need
to
be
on
our
guard
with
this,
and,
but
reality
is
what
we
have
seen
on
king
streets.
I've
seen
it
as
well.
I've
seen
the
crowds
come
down
here.
I
just
assume
if
I
had
my
brothers,
have
a
big
old
bonfire
in
marion
square
and
burn
all
my
masks
that
I
have
I'm
just
tired
of
wearing
it
be
honest
with
y'all.
I
I
hate
it
and
it
is
a
pain
to
where,
particularly
when
you
are
trying
to
be
in
a
courtroom
or
a
court
setting,
you
can't
hear
because
people
voices
are
muffled,
so
I
get
it
and
and
I'm
part
of
that
crowd
and
would
like
to
get
rid
of
these
masses
as
soon
as
possible.
But
our
number
one
responsibility
our
number
one
responsibility
to
this
community
is
public
safety,
and
we
have
to
make
sure
that.
I
Thank
you
all
for
the
opportunity
to
talk
and
address
y'all.
Thank.
L
And
I
just
want
to
express
my
support
for
what
are
we
calling
it?
The
amendment
to
the
amendment.
L
L
I
got
you
know
I
got
vaccinated
and
waited
my
couple
weeks
and
you
know
first
thing
I
did
friday
night
was
meet
up
with
some
girlfriends
and
all
of
us
were
like
we
got,
you
know
we
got
our
shots
and
we
were
hugging
each
other
and
you
know
super
excited
to
finally
hang
out
together
and
let
our
guard
down
a
little
bit
for
the
first
time
in
a
year
and
I
think
that's
people's
natural
response
and-
and
I
don't
want
to
demotivate
someone
from
getting
vaccinated
because
it's
kind
of
like
well,
what's
the
point
of
getting
vaccinated.
L
I
still
have
to
do
all
of
these
things,
and
so
I
think
you
know
we.
We
can
have
scientific
data
around
that,
but
in
in
our
hearts
and
in
our
heads
we're
having
a
hard
time
making
that
connection.
So
I
I
can
sympathize
and
empathize
with
with
that
and
and
guilty
of
it
just
like
others,
and
you
know,
I
think
we
can
mandate
it
in
our
city,
buildings
and
businesses
can
take
it
upon
themselves.
L
You
know
target,
for
example,
in
mount
pleasant.
I
was
just
there
yesterday.
Mount
pleasant
doesn't
have
a
mask
ordinance,
but
if
you
go
into
target
they
require
face
coverings,
so
those
businesses
can
still
do
that,
and-
and
so
I
think
this
is.
I
think
this
is
the
right.
The
right
move
to
make,
and
certainly
we
we
can
reassess.
L
L
Q
L
Exactly
it's
more
detrimental
than
anything
else,
I
feel
so.
I
feel
this
is
the
right
move
to
make
and-
and
I
appreciate
harry,
bringing
it
up
to
begin
with
and
then
you
know
others
have
carried
it
forward.
K
Yes,
mr
mayor,
I
was
council
members,
I
wasn't
going
to
say
anything,
but
I
live
on
king
street.
I
don't
think
no
council
member
here
all
my
colleagues.
K
That's
coming
and
flooding
on
king
street,
just
like
last
week
was
like
friday
and
saturday.
They
had
lines
out
there
long
lines
and
if
they're
coming
from
out
of
town
coming
from
bridgeville
or
wherever
they're
coming
from
and
bringing
down,
you
don't
know
what
they're
coming
and
bringing
in
here
with
and
I'm
looking
at
my
grandson
kids
because
they're
here
too,
but
I've
I've
seen
things
that's
going
on
in
this
city
and
I'm
when
I
started.
We
started
with
this
mask
ordinance
in
the
beginning.
K
K
Our
bishop
tell
them
tell
us,
we
cannot
even
go
into
a
building
until
september.
We
can't
even
go
in
a
building,
none
of
the
buildings
in
the
state
of
south
carolina
until
september.
Why
safetyness
of
others
who
might
feel
that
they
they
know
everything
and
don't
know
any
better,
because
we're
going
to
be
congregating
together.
Even
if
we
split
sit
apart
because
you
don't
know
who
have
what
who
have
not
taken
the
test
or
getting
the
vaccine
or
not.
K
K
That's
what
they
told
me,
so
I'm
going
on
with
that.
They
said.
Keep
the
mass
on
this
and
tell
me,
and
let's
see
what
happened
to
me-
that's
what
we
talked
about
when
we
first
started
to
have
this.
We
looked
back
back
at
and
made
it
take
things
out
in.
May
you
know
how
long
mr
mayor,
how
long
have
we
had
this
mass
ordinance
in
place?
K
K
K
Four
months
ago
they
started
the
back
seat,
so
these
these
are
the
current
things
I
was
looking
at.
In
a
nutshell,
we
started
the
back
scene
four
months
ago.
This
was
started
last
year.
This
pandemic
started
and
they
tell
you
you
can't
wait
a
couple
of
months
just
to
see
what's
going
to
happen,
come
on
people,
you
know
what
are
we
thinking
sometimes
we're
looking
at
dan
and
his
dad
is
still
on
the
line.
I
know
dad
is
still
on
the
line,
but
I
saw
him
on
the
line
come
here.
K
Okay,
what
you
think
about
this
dan
when
they
say
that
I
know
because
calling
I
know
what's
happening.
I
see
you
all
out
there.
I
know
what's
happened
to
the
police
department
with
the
name
calling,
but
I
take
name
calling
too.
If
you
come
in
my
district,
I
don't
think
none
of
you
all
wouldn't
represent
my
district
with
the
name
callings.
K
AQ
Well,
with
all
due
respect,
I
think
that
at
this
point,
grown
adults
need
to
make
their
own
decisions.
They
need
to
recognize
if
they
have
become
vaccinated.
We
don't
know
this,
we
don't
know
the
interactions
of
every
individual
that
we
come
in
contact
with.
Yes,
we
have
received
tremendous
amount
of
argumentative
name
calling
abuse.
AQ
We
need
to
put
the
onus
on
each
individual
to
make
their
own
decision
is
whether
they
feel
safe
or
not.
If
they
do,
they
do,
if
they
don't
they
don't
the
ones
that
don't
feel
safe
will
not
enter
an
establishment
or
walk
the
streets
without
a
mask
on
the
ones
that
feel
more
confident
will
not
wear
a
mask.
AQ
So
I
think
at
this
point
I
agree
with
lesser
restrictions,
but
I
will
tell
you
that
it's
up
to
each
individual
to
make
that
decision
on
their
own
and
I'm
at
this
point
confident
that,
with
with
all
our
progress
that
we
have
gone
through
and
enforcing
there's
a
point
in
time,
we
have
to
say:
okay,
people
have
to
make
their
own
decision
based
on
their
their
own
interactions,
their
their
own
personal
interactions,
their
own
I've
been
vaccinated.
AQ
AQ
At
this
point
I
will
respect
your
decision
with
this
ordinance,
but
at
this
point
I
I
feel
confident
with
with
council's
decision
and
moving
forward
and
voting
on
the
way
they
want
to
vote.
K
All
right,
thank
you
dan.
I
just
wanted
to
get
your
input
on
that,
mr
mayor,
I
don't
think
I'm
going
to
go
yet,
but
I'm
satisfied.
B
Yes,
sir,
can
we
call
the
question?
Is
anybody
else
really
highly
motivated
to
say
anything
else?
Okay
on
the
floor
is
the
amended
amendment
it
will
allow
still
recommend
mass
wearing
out
of
doors
will
not
require
will
require
mass
to
be
worn
indoors
essentially,
but
no
monetary
fines
will
be
imposed.
Mr.
B
AA
A
procedural
I
mean:
if
we
vote
this
amended
amendment
up
or
down,
then
would
we
come
back
and
vote
on
the
amen?
Let's
say
we
vote
it
down.
Would
we
come
back
and
vote
on
the
amended
ordinance?
That's
been
in
front
of
us.
B
Well,
somebody
could
make
a
motion,
but
right
now,
what's
on
the
floor,
is
the
amended
amendment.
B
D
V
V
A
V
Q
J
Yes,
I'm
back,
I
don't
know
what
happened.
I
guess
we're
we're
in
a
voting
phase.
V
J
B
J
Yes,
I
thought
that
councilman
shade
made
a
really
good
analogy
with
the
stop
sign,
because
the
way
I
look
at
it
is
if
people
decide
that
they're
not
going
to
adhere
to
the
stop
sign
if
they
get
caught,
they
get
a
ticket.
J
But
we
don't
remove
the
stop
sign
if
people
can
ignore
the
stop
sign
and
you
just
keep
driving
through
there's
going
to
be
an
accident
and
someone
may
die-
and
I
think
that
analogy
guys.
Okay,
it's
consistent
with
what
we're
doing
right
now
in
terms
of
weakening
the
mass
ornament
substantially,
and
I
also
feel
that
even
it,
it
sounds
as
though
we're
setting
a
precedent
that
if
enough
people
decide
that
they're
not
going
to
obey
the
law,
then
we
get
rid
of
the
law.
J
B
D
B
Thank
you,
councilmember.
AO
Seeking
just
very
briefly,
while
we're
on
this
topic
and
have
been
for
a
long
time,
I
just
want
to
susan
and
chip
just
make
sure
that
we
don't
lose
in
the
translation
that
parking
ordinance.
So
I
just
want
to
make
sure
we
have
some
debate
on
that
before
it
expires
and
we
get
it
permanent
and
expanded.
So
please
just
make
a
note
to
not.
Let
us
forget
about
that.
If
you
don't
mind
because
it's
it's
working,
whoa,
it's
working,
let's
work.
B
B
Yes,
I
do
want
to
make
one
comment:
that's
prior
to
us
breaking
and
then
we'll
come
back
for
our
council
committee
reports
and
I
want
to
address
this
remark:
dan
riccio
and
all
his
fine
code
enforcement
officers
and
also
to
our
police
officers,
who
have
been
engaged
in
the
enforcement
of
this
mask
ordinance.
B
I
am
sorry
that
you
all
have
had
to
take
abuse
and
and
the
unpleasantness
you
were
doing
your
job
in
the
very
best
fashion
and
best
form,
and
I
do
want
you
to
remember
this.
One
thing
you
saved
some
lives
out
there
by
doing
what
you
did.
I
believe
what
the
efforts
you
made
raised,
the
compliance
of
this
city
generally
speaking
that
which
saved
and
reduced
the
number
of
cases
reduced
the
number
of
people
that
might
have
died.
So
please
keep
that
thought
in
mind
and
thank
you
for
your
service.
AQ
AQ
G
V
V
AD
AH
F
B
B
All
right,
where
are
we,
how
we
doing
madam
clerk.
B
All
right,
so,
if
I
could
reconvene
us
and
we'll
move
along
with
our
council
committee
reports,
first
one
up
is
our
committee
on
community
development,
council
member
mitchell.
AH
B
Ma'am,
I'm
sorry
yeah
an
update
on
short-term
rental
ordinance
from
county
mayor.
AH
B
Okay,
dan,
yes,.
AQ
K
The
community
development
committee
met
on
march
25th
at
4
pm
and
we
had
three
items
under
that
committee.
One
item
was
the
first
one
was
a
resolution
to
certify
220
nassau
street
as
an
abandoned
building
that
was
approved
and
items.
K
The
second
item
was
classic
development
corporation
to
request
funds,
and
that
was
also
approved
and
number
three.
That
was
for
information.
Only
correct
one
asks
for
us
to
prove
those
items
as
listed.
B
V
B
K
Councilmember
waring,
but
was
sharing
that
it
was
for
the
public
safety
com.
I
mean
public
works
department.
H
Well,
that
was
that
was
just
a
discussion
on
the
tiff
funds
right,
that
was
information
only.
I
think
everybody
participated
well
and
got
a
greater
great
amount
of
information.
I
wanted
to
thank
amy
and
her
team
for
all
the
good
works
and
putting
together
a
difficult
subject
and
making
it
making
sense
of
it.
So
thank
you,
mrs
one.
B
So
the
committee
on
recreation
has
been
rescheduled
or
will
be
rescheduled.
J
J
This
is
a
request
that
came
from
council
member
mitchell
and
I
think
that
timing
is
very
important
if
I'm
not
mistaken
on
this
one.
Mr
mitchell,
yes,
it
is
so
we
can
pull
that
from
that
committee
report.
I
don't
know
and
just
vote
on
the
new
business
and
that's
the
renaming
of
the
park.
B
I
think
that's
appropriate
since
it's
on
the
agenda,
we
have
a
motion
on
the
floor.
H
K
I'll
make
a
little
motion,
mr
mayor,
on
that
she
will
not.
As
of
may,
it
will
be
a
new
president
for
the
music
rags
borough.
This
is
her
last
term
and
she
will
not
be
the
president
anymore
after
may,
and
normally
they
don't
have
any
meetings
during
may
june
july,
june,
july
and
august.
So
when
she
comes
back
when
they
come
back
and
after
her
mother
died,
you
know
she's
running
back
and
forth.
K
You
know
to
take
care
of
the
property
up
there
where
mother
had
to,
and
so
I
think
this
was
more
fitting
and
the
reason
really
reason
why
I
did
this
when
the
city
of
charleston
didn't
have
enough
money
to
to
do
the
function
in
the
park.
The
music
racks
borough
association.
They
raised
the
money,
the
rest
of
the
money
to
complete
that
park
right
up
from
the
neighborhood
association
during
that
time,
with
banjo's
our
leadership.
K
B
Well,
it
is
most
fitting
and
she's
been
a
remarkable
neighborhood
leader
and
servant
to
our
city.
It's
very
appropriate
any
further
comments
or
questions
all
in
favor,
please
say:
aye,
aye,
aye
close
the
eyes.
Have
it.
AJ
H
We
get
a
brief
update
from
mr
cronsberg
on
stonyfield
and
w.l
stevens
pool.
B
AR
I
don't
have
my
notes
in
front
of
me,
but
the
w.l
stevens
pool
will
be
opened
up
as
a
seasonal
pool
due
to
the
fact
that,
with
the
roof
being
inoperable
and
our
inability
to
to
get
the
correct
ventilation
into
that
pool
area,
we'll
cleaning
it
up.
I
think
july.
1St
has
a
season
we'll
be
taking
out
all
the
walls
opening
up
to
the
air
and
getting
enough
air
in
there
to
improve
the
air
quality
until
we
have
the
opportunity
to
reconstruct
it,.
AL
AR
And
thank
you
stoney
field.
We
just
you
know,
have
my
notes
in
front
of
me.
We
we
just
approved
the
submittals
for
the
the
turf
and
the
track
surfacing,
so
the
the
rubberized
track
surfacing
will
be
the
same
surfacing
they
use
in
all
the
other
high
school
facilities
and
the
synthetic
turf
will
be
similar
as
well.
Okay,
biscuit
some
work
inside
the
building
with
the
hvac
and
the
outfits
to
the
locker
rooms
and
the
additional
surcharge
for
that
track
area
is
in
place
and
doing
its
job.
R
J
That's
going
on
complimentarily,
yes,.
AM
J
B
All
right,
thank
you,
see
there
councilmember
gregory.
I
think
we
saved
you
from
having
a
meeting.
H
Thank
you,
mr
mayor,
as
you
see
on
your
agenda
items
4a
and
4b,
which
passed
on
ways
and
means
past
unanimous
on
the
raising
me,
I
mean
on
the
public
works
side,
so
move
us
passage.
Second,.
H
Aye
aye
aye,
the
briefing
on
the
electric
garbage
truck
frankly
was
fabulous.
We
certainly
look
forward
to
the
grant.
That's
gonna
be
part
of
getting
this
these
trucks
and
hopefully
putting
us
towards
a
cleaner
air
solution
on
that.
So,
but
that
was
just
for
discussion.
We
had
an
executive
session
on
a
resident
that
came
what
well
here's
listed
as
it
was
an
executive
session.
So
I
need
to
correct
virginia
on.
H
A
resident
who
had
quite
a
bit
of
flooding
in
the
backyard
and,
frankly,
very
good
hearty
conversation,
which
is
probably
going
to
result
in
a
recommendation
from
the
committee
for
it
to
go
towards
a
small
small
project
that
mr
fountain,
hopefully
will
maybe
get
on
the
22-year
budget.
K
AL
Mr
chairman,
okay
councilman,
a
quick
note
on
that
agenda.
Real
quick.
AL
I
think
jennifer
is
making
the
same
note.
I
think
the
executive
session
was
actually
not
on
the
agenda
for
the
public
works
utilities
committee
agenda
and
the
correct
that
there
was
the
item
for
lack
more
terrorist.
That
was
discussed,
but
that's
a
separate
item
from
the
executive
session,
which
I
think
you're
right,
you're
right.
Thank.
H
B
AO
Thank
you,
mr
mayor
fellow
council
members.
The
committee
on
traffic
and
transportation
met
today
at
two
o'clock
and
thanks
to
committee
member
brady,
who
was
in
his
car
driving
home.
We
got
real
and
live
updates
on
the
traffic
situation
in
west
ashley.
I
believe
there
was
some
traffic
jams.
I
believe
there
was
a
little
bit
of
an
accident
along
the
way,
so
it
was
very
exciting
traffic
and
transportation
in
real
time
in
real
life.
So
thank
you
for
that.
Councilmember
brady.
AO
Thanks
to
mr
konsberg,
we
got
a
very
detailed
update
on
what's
happening
with
the
build
grant
for
the
west
sasse
bridge.
Suffice
it
to
say
if
you
have
any
specific
questions,
please
get
with
mr
kronsberg,
but
don't
take
too
much
time
of
his
time,
because
it's
very
busy
time
for
that
project.
They
are
going
through
many
administrative
levels
of
making
sure
that
we
are
in
a
position
to
get
the
rfq
and
the
rfp
out
for
our
for
our
design
build
team.
That's
the
next
big
benchmark.
AO
We
will
see
some
preliminary,
perhaps
15,
finished
drawings,
of
what
the
movable
part
of
that
bridge
will
look
like
sometime,
maybe
in
the
next
30
to
60
days
and
I'll
share
that
with
council.
But
I
think
the
committee
was
satisfied
based
on
mr
kronsberg,
mr
most
in
their
report
that
we're
moving
very
much
forward
and
are
on
schedule
for
that
very
important
project.
AO
We
have
had
a
single
signal,
maintenance
agreement
and
projects
update
from
the
other
very
eloquent
mitchell
at
the
city.
He
gave
us
a
very
about
as
complete
a
report
as
you
can
get,
and
I
can
just
tell
you
that
there
is
a
ton
of
signal
maintenance
going
on
in
the
city.
If
you
want
to
know
specifically
anything
in
your
particular
district,
we
will
get
you
a
list.
I
wouldn't
even
pretend
to
try
to
list
them
all
plus.
AO
You
would
all
not
want
to
sit
here
and
listen
to
it
again
for
about
30
minutes,
but
that
is,
I
think,
one
of
the
things
the
takeaway
from
mr
benjamin
and
mr
mitchell
is.
They
are
super
busy
out
there
really
working
as
hard
as
they
can
and
anything
we
do
to
support
them
and
get
some
technological
updates
to
our
system
will
really
lessen
their
workload.
So
that
was
essentially
what
happened.
We
got
some
just
general
directors
updates
from
mr
benjamin.
I
don't
think
I'm
missing
anything
too
specific,
so
nothing
to
vote
on.
A
AA
Yes,
my
I
tag
on
to
your
report,
chairman
seekings.
I
I
think,
unfortunately,
it
was
a
very
sobering
part
of
mr
benjamin's
report-
that
literally
as
we
were
in
our
committee
meeting
that
started
at
two
o'clock
today,
we
got
the
news
both
from
the
cpd
and
from
charleston
moves
who
follows
a
lot
of
what's
happening
on
the
on
the
bike
pad
front
and
our
region
lost
another
pedestrian,
another
biker
who
was
walking
his
bicycle
across
the
north
bridge.
AA
So
from
what
everyone
says,
that's
the
fourth
person
killed
on
that
bridge
since
2015
and
mr
benjamin
went
on
to
tell
us
that
there
is
now
at
least
a
cooperative
work
plan
going
forward
between
north
charleston
and
the
city
and
the
county
to
pool
their
resources
to
have
a
concept
created
for
how
to
best
improve
that
bridge.
AA
I
I
hope
and
pray
that
we
can
get
to
it
as
soon
as
that
concept
is
out
there.
D.O.T
a
cdot
definitely
needs
to
be
part
of
that
responsibility.
AA
It's
it's
it's
a
terrible
situation
and
we're
keeping
two
communities
that
should
be
having
the
synergy
that
a
bridge
creates
between
two
increasingly
vital
parts
of
our
our
cities,
rivers,
avenue
and
sam
rittenberg.
Why
wouldn't
we
want
to
have
something
major
improved
there,
so
I
I
really
it's
a
sad
thing
that
we
have
to
use.
You
know
a
tragedy
to
motivate
us,
but
I
really
hope
we
can.
I
Sir,
mr
mayor,
this
is
right
in
my
my
district
and
I've
been
in
regular
communication
with
katie
zimmerman
and
the
coalition
that
she's
created
and
working
towards
getting
this
bridge
replacement
or
the
addition
of
invite
pedestrian
path
over
and
the
county
has
allocated
some
money
for
study.
Actually
some
alternatives
to
implement
over
this.
I
This
area,
northbridge,
has
become
a
very
popular
place
if
you
ride
over
there,
particularly
after
hours
or
in
the
spring
and
summertime
there's
a
huge
congregation
of
folks
who
are
using
the
the
pure
and
dock
that's
out
there,
but
losing
just
one
person
is
tragic
enough
and,
unfortunately,
the
bridge
is
the
only
means
of
access
for
people
who
are
not
using
this
for
recreation.
This
is
their
ability
to
come
to
go
to
a
grocery
store,
to
go
shop
or
to
get
to
work,
and
it
is
the
alternatives
over.
There
are
very
limited.
I
The
county
had
worked
with,
and
I
think
councilmember
has
mentioned
this
earlier
my
process
for
a
bus
to
stop
at
a
certain
location.
You
can
load
your
bicycle
on
it
to
get
you
over
the
bridge,
but
unfortunately,
that's
not
on
a
every
hour
process.
So
there's
a
lot
of
work
to
be
done
over
here,
and
I
appreciate
the
concerns
that
my
colleagues
have
with
this
and
I'm
going
to
need
you
all
support
sometime
down
in
the
future
as
we
work
towards
coming
up
with
with
some
hard
solutions
to
this.
I
This
is
all
the
work
that
we've
done
with
the
ashley
crossing,
we're
going
to
double
our
efforts
to
accomplish
the
same
goal
with
what
we're
doing
over
here
on
northbridge.
So
thanks
for.
I
B
Absolutely
so
next
up
is
our
committee
on
ways
and
means
council,
member
councilmember,
gregory.
I
AC
V
AN
Think,
council,
member
gregory's
comment
covered
this,
but
that
there
was
a
matter
we
were
deferring
having
to
do
with
the
hph
properties
and
the
development
agreement.
B
I
want
to
put
on
the
record
that
I
recuse
myself
from
number
12.
B
Second,
all
right
any
discussion
on
any
of
those
all
in
favor
of
one
through
twelve
for
second
reading,
please
say
aye
any
opposed
the
eyes.
Have
it
now
for
third
reading
and
wrath
any
questions
comments
all
in
favor,
please
say:
aye
aye
opposed
the
eyes.
Have
it
so
our
next
regular
meeting
is
going
to
be
tuesday
april
20th.
B
Oh,
no!
That's
a
special
meeting
on
tuesday
april
20th
on
our
municipal
elections
and
redistricting,
and
then
the
next
regular
meeting
will
be
april
27th.
There
is
a
agenda
item
here
for
an
update,
a
legal
advice
or
update
on
the
charleston
school
of
law.
I
also
am
recused
from
that.
So
if
I
may
call
upon
you
mayor
pro
tem
at
the
end
of
yale's
executive
session,
to
please
adjourn
the
meeting,
is
there
any
other
business
to
come
before
us
other
than
the
executive
session
council
member.
H
Thank
you,
mr
mia.
I
have
a
question.
I
know
the
ordinances
have
passed,
but
could
mr
deena
address
the
piece
about
when
we
will
be
meeting
in
person
again?
How
does
that
ordinance
address
that.
AN
Well,
at
this
point
in
time,
the
emergency
ordinance
extending
or
excuse
me
suspending
the
rules
for
in-person
meeting
has
now
been
continued
to
may
14th.
I
think
it
is.
Let
me
double
check
that.
B
So,
while
she's
checking
that
I
I
do
want
to
share
with
you
that
I
met
with
our
it
staff
in
council
chambers
and
asked
them
if
they
could
rig
up
a
combo
meeting
where
we
would
be
able
to
meet
in
person,
but
also
to
share
the
benefits
of
zooming
for
those
who
can't
are
or
choose
not
to
attend
and
for
the
public
as
well.
So
I
I
think
they've
made
some
progress
and
when,
when
this
this
is
done,
I'd
say
june
at
the
the
latest.
B
We
should
reconvene
in
person,
but
maybe
with
a
blended
capability,
which
I
I
found
like
like
you
know.
Some
people
have
been
participating
by
zoom.
Let's
see
if
we
can
do
both.
H
I
agree
with
that,
mr
miller,
but
I
we
didn't
get
to
discuss
that
because
I
guess
the
way
we
kind
of
close
out
those
sessions,
but
I
like,
but
we
a
month
ago
we
spoke
in
terms
of
the
second
meeting
in
april.
I
think
june
is
too
long.
Every
major
public
elected
body
is
meeting
in
person.
I
I
I
feel
confident
that
the
majority
of
city
councilmember,
although
that's
a
private
issue,
have
taken
their
vaccine
shots.
It's
only
13
of
us.
H
I
know
we
have
staff,
but
we
can
we
can
meet
in
person.
I
mean
I
have
some
people
saying
that
we
hide
now.
I
I
attacked
on
you
know.
While
we
were
debating
that
mass
guardians,
we
had
four
44
people
and
tapped
onto
this
meeting
hour,
we're
getting
to
the
point
where,
frankly,
some
of
us
don't
even
want
to
ride
downtown
kind
of
getting
lazy,
we
can
do
business
in
person.
H
We're
going
to
have
some
positive,
take
away
from
this
zoom
aspects,
because
obviously
committee
meetings-
certainly
I
think,
should
be
considered
going
forward,
but
city
council
meeting
and
ways
of
means
we
need
to
get
back.
So
I
was
going
to
put
a
motion
on
the
floor
to
be
considered
at
the
next
meeting
that
our
not
to
be
voted
on
tonight.
H
H
I
think
in
the
light
of
the
world
we're
in
the
day
we
need
professional
trained
officers.
Actually
it's
more
for
your
and
staff
protection.
We
come
down
here,
doing
normal
sections
once
or
twice
a
week,
but
we're
just
operating
in
a
different
world
today
and
I
think
we
need
proper
professionalism
at
those
ingresses
and
egresses
of
city
hall,
so
not
to
be
discussed
tonight.
But
I
I
did
want
that
on
a
motion.
We
can
vote
it
up
or
down
at
the
next
meeting.
Mr
mayor,
those
two
items.
I
Yes,
I
in
sort
of
to
respond
to
councilmember
waring's
comments.
We
are
planning
on
having
a
public
safety
meeting
to
address
some
of
the
concerns
that
he
just
raised
and
councilman
warren.
I
would
ask:
let
us
go
forward
with
that
meeting
we're
trying
to
get
scheduled
sometime,
hopefully
next
week
or
the
week
after,
to
get
it.
Okay,.
I
Thank
you,
multiple
seeking
has
been
pushing
me
to
get
this
set
up
and
so
we're
just
not
ready
to
have
that
meeting,
but
once
we
do
that,
we
can
report
out
to
council
the
steps
about
what
we
need
to
do
to
get
back
into
in-person
meetings.
So
I
think
this
is
where
we're
headed,
but
we
just
want
to
make
sure
that
we're
being
diligent
and
very
smart
about
that
process.
AJ
AN
But
just
just
to
respond
to
the
question
based
on
what
was
done
tonight,
the
suspension
of
the
physical
person's
requirements
would
be
until
may
13th,
but
council
always
has
the
opportunity
to
revisit
that
and
modify
that
if
it
wants
prior
to
that
time,.
H
H
D
B
All
right
so
anything
else
to
come
before
going
into
executive
session
chip
would
like
mcqueen
would
like
to
be
recognized.
AP
And
mayor,
I
just
wanted
to
mention
this
in-person
meeting,
it's
whatever
you
guys
want
to
do
when
I
did
the
research
early
on
on
this,
and
I
drafted
the
provision
for
the
the
different
bodies
that
meet
I
intentionally
made
it
so
that
bodies
couldn't
meet
without
other
people
present,
because
you
know
it
sort
of
to
me
if
you're
gonna
have
a
non-physical
presence
meeting,
there
should
be
no
physical
presence
you
shouldn't
have.
AP
This
is
just
something
to
think
about.
You.
Shouldn't
have
13
people
in
a
room
that
are
that
are
supposed
to
have
an
open
meeting
with
the
rest
of
the
people,
watching
it
sort
of
increases
the
the
sensitivity
and
that
wasn't
nobody
directed
me
to
do
that.
I
just
looked:
did
the
research
on
what
other
people
was
doing
work
other
people
were
doing,
but
you
know
that
that's
a
big
reason
I
sort
of
put
that
in
there
is,
is
to
ensure
that
there
wasn't.
AP
You
know
it's
not
just
verbal
communication
and
such,
but
it's
also
just
the
idea
of
like
a
board
of
zoning
peels,
for
instance,
meeting
together
without
any
members
of
the
