We
thank
you
for
our
mentors
who
shape
the
lives
of
young
people.
Please
continue
to
bless
them
in
their
mission.
Lord,
as
we
push
forward
with
a
vaccine
to
protect
us
from
the
covet
virus.
We
ask
that
you'll
guide
those
who
are
distributing
and
administering
that
you'll
allow
the
production
and
distribution
to
arrive
quickly
for
those
who
need
it
and
to
guide
us
on
a
path
of
reducing
health
risks
that
we
face
in
this
pandemic,
where
we
ask
that
you'll
bless
and
guide
our
health
care
workers,
our
caregivers,
our
researchers
and
the
decision
makers.
C
In
this
time,
lord
we've
seen
increased
violence
in
charleston.
Lately
we
praise
you
and
thank
you
for
protecting
our
officers,
who
have
been
in
very
dangerous
situations.
Lately
we
ask
that
you'll
continue
to
protect
each
of
our
officers
and
our
firefighters,
giving
them
physical,
mental
and
emotional
strength.
Lord,
we
thank
you
for
being
our
almighty
father.
We
ask
that
you'll,
keep
your
hand
upon
us
that
you'll
keep
us
free
from
evil,
so
we
will
not
cause.
You
pain,
help
help
us
lord
to
be
a
light
in
the
darkness.
C
B
B
Thank
you
now
if
I
may
entertain
a
motion
to
make
a
a
little
modification
to
the
agenda,
it's
just
for
reporting
purposes,
not
to
ask
for
any
action
of
counsel,
but
it's
it's
on
me.
I
forgot
to
ask
jennifer
to
put
on
there
under
petitions
and
communications,
a
report
from
the
smokestack
task
force
and
they
they
have
a
finding
they'd
like
to
share
with
us.
B
B
All
in
favor,
please
say
aye
aye
any
oppose
the
eyes.
Have
it.
Thank
you.
So,

a

our
community?
We
ask
you
all
to
please
go
to
our
website
and
read
their
incredible
stories.
H
B
B
These
are
just
a
few
examples
of
many
organizations
in
our
community
that
are
doing
mentoring
work.
So
I
just
want
to
let
stat
council
know
also
that
staff
will
be
working,
both
our
recreation
department
and
our
mayor's
office
on
youth
and
families,
to
make
2021
a
a
priority
year
for
trying
to
assist
all
of
our
community
groups
that
are
doing
mentoring
to
involve
as
many
city
employees
as
we
can
and
as
many
good
citizens
that
are
willing
to
step
up
in
this
important
need
in
our
community.
It's
national
mentoring
month.
B
I
All
right
are
you
all
seeing
rezoning
e1
now
on
the
full
screen?
Yes,
sir,
okay,
can
you
see
my
cursor
moving
around
on
the
screen?
Yes,
sir?
Yes,
right.
Okay,
all
right
so
rezoning
e1
is
on
the
west
side
of
the
city
in
the
on
the
peninsula
tax
map
463-1603-041,
it's
a
tenth
of
an
acre.
It's
a
request
of
a
rezoning
from
diverse
residential
dr1
to
diverse
residential
dr2,
the
property
backs
up
to
the
I-26
overpasses,
and
also
to
the
future
low
line.
I
This
neighborhood
has
a
mix
of
dr1
and
dr2f.
Zoning,
as
you
can
see
across
the
street,
is
dr2f
and
even
on
the
same
side
of
the
street.
Some
of
the
parcels
are
dr2f.
It
would
allow
for
the
owner
to
have
two.
This
rezoning
would
allow
for
the
owner
to
have
two
residences
on
the
property
instead
of
one
just
to
show
you
some
of
the
other
images.
This
is
in
our
century
five
plan
as
an
urban
location,
so
the
rezoning
would
be
in
keeping
with
that.
G
G
But
it's
I
mean
it's
really
hard
to
even
turn
around
in
those
streets
sometime,
because
you
have
to
go
to
the
street
and
turn
into
someone's
driveway
and
back
back
up
and
come
back
out
of
the
streets
right
and
I
just
and
even
the
sanitation
department
have
problems
getting
down
there,
sometimes
because
of
people
parking,
because
the
trucks
are
so
wide
to
get
down
in
those
areas.
Sometimes,
so
I'm
just
wondering
how
are
we
going
to
deal
with
that.
B
I
I
F
I
Okay,
this
is
rezoning
e2
and
three.
It's
at
578
meeting
street
on
the
east
side
of
the
peninsula.
It
is
2.13
acres,
it's
a
request
for
rezoning
from
general
business
and
light
industrial
to
mixed-use,
workforce
housing,
mu1
wh
and
a
portion
from
old
city,
height
district
2.5
to
3
story
to
the
3.5
three
and
a
half
story
classification
to
orient
you
to
the
site.
I
Most
people
know
this
as
the
regis
milk
company
site
on
meeting
street
it's
across
from
a
new
multi-family
development
that
is
directly
across
the
street
here
in
the
light
blue,
the
mu2
workforce
housing
year.
It's
also
across
the
street,
partially
from
the
grant
homes
that
are
owned
by
the
charleston
housing
authority
just
to
the
north
is
a
church
that
was
built
10
or
15
years
ago
to
the
southeast,
that
is
in
the
corner
of
the
property.
That
is
not
a
part
of
this
rezoning
and
then
further
to
the
south
are
the
meeting
street
manor.
I
I
I
I
B
A
B
E
D
B
G
Yes,
man,
city,
council
members,
I
have
spoken
with
developers
and
I
had
them
to
go
out
to
the
neighborhood
association
and
to
the
public.
Housing
authorities
speak
to
mr
dawn
cameron
and
everyone,
then
no
one
have
any
complaints
or
problems
with
it
and
the
church
that
they
were
talking
about
is
right
behind
the
amd
churches
behind
it.
G
G
G
I
So
there
was
an
amendment
that
was
put
together
by
staff
and
reviewed
by
planning
commission
it's
in
front
of
you,
it's
in
your
packages,
and
you
will
see
it
here
with
strikethroughs
and
double
underlines.
But
essentially
this
now
allows
for
that
district
to
have
a
rezoning
to
an
extra
height.
Just
like
what
you
all
looked
at
with
the
previous
rezoning
and
staff
is
comfortable
with
this,
and
we
did
meet
with
the
preservation
groups
on
this
issue
as
well.
J
Good
evening,
cashen
durale
with
historic,
charleston
foundation.
Thank
you,
mr
mayor
hdf
is
supportive
of
this
amendment
and
we
respectfully
request
city
council's
approval
of
it,
we'd
like
to
thank
mr
morgan
and
mr
batchelder
and
other
city
staff
for
reaching
out
to
us
for
our
input
on
this.
In
particular,
we'd
like
to
commend
your
attention
to
the
language
in
section
one
which
we
are
particularly
excited
about.
J
C
B
Oppose
the
eyes,
have
it
all
right,
so
I
think
that's
a
good
breaking
point,
because
number
five
might
take
a
little
discussion.
Could
we
recess,
I
guess
the
the
address
will
be
on
youtube
as
well
and
then
as
soon
as
we're
done.
They've
only
allotted
me
12
minutes,
so
luckily
you
won't
have
to
put
up
with
too
long
of
a
remo
of
remarks.
I'll
be
12
minutes
and
we'll
reconvene
council
about
7
13..
How
about
that
mayor?
Can
we
do
it.
