City of Charleston Committee on Public Works and Utilities 9/21/2020
B
C
Are
you
on
the
line,
mr
chairman,
mr
o'brien,
this
is
mr
fountain,
mr
o'brien,
let
me
know
that
he
had
a
doctor's
issue
come
up
that
he
had
to
be
at
so
he
asked
if
I
could,
let
you
know
that
there
were.
There
were
not
any
unusual
encroachments
in
his
opinion
on
the
agenda
and
he
felt
they
were
all
acceptable.
We've.
A
C
You
sherman
so
items
one
and
two
are
somewhat
linked
together.
These
are
the
professional
service
contracts
in
relation
to
the
national
fish
and
wildlife
foundation,
grant
that
we
accepted
at
the
last
meeting,
the
125
thousand
dollar
firearms
137
000
grant
with
the
50
50
match
from
the
city
the
first.
The
first
item
is
the
amendment
wk
dixon,
who
is
the
the
prime
on
the
barbary
woods
project
for
basically,
the
engineering
and
design
services
work.
C
This
this
work
will
basically
identify
the
existing
natural
drainage
and
somewhat
man-made
drainage
pathways
on
the
city's
portion
of
john's
island
and
figure
out
which
of
those
need
to
be
preserved
and
then
which
of
those
need
to
be
restored,
similar
to
what
we're
looking
at
in
the
barbara
woods
project
and
basically
come
up
with
that.
As
a
plan
for
the
island.
A
A
C
C
So
we
had
pretty
extensive
updates
the
last
two
meetings.
We
will
have
another
round
of
updates
next
meeting
at
this
point,
the
the
biggest
update
since
the
previous
meetings
that
we
have
had
are
our
kickoff
for
the
windermere
drainage
improvement
project
and
that
project
is
is
underway
or
is
underway.
At
this
point,.
D
In
addition,
I
think,
in
a
similar
vein
and
with
our
partner
in
the
county
of
charleston,
we're
close
to
moving
forward
with
some
projects
from
new
drainage
study,
and
so
you
know,
rather
than
going
through
every
project,
citywide
just
focus
on
those
two
areas
next
time
and
maybe
treat
them
with
a
little
more.
A
little
more
detail
and
discussion.
A
A
The
time
scenario
that
you
went
through
I'm
sure
was
apropos,
but
I'm
wondering
if
there's
any
way
we
can
find
a
way
to
accelerate
some
of
this,
because,
in
particular,
some
of
the
known
improvements
to
the
infrastructure
that
exists
so
in
doing
that
information
that
the
mayor's
addressed
this
now
in
light
of
looking
at
that,
I
can,
if
you
can
look
at
that
from
if
anything
that
we
can
do
to
improve
our
accelerate
and
we
are
talking
about
getting
funding.
But
this
hypothetically
we
had
the
funding.
A
How
can
we
accelerate
some
of
the
infrastructure
in
particular
downstream
over
there
for
central
park,
road
and
the
surrounding
basin
in
that
area?
So
not
that
you
don't
have
enough
on
your
plate,
but
if
we
can
at
the
next
meeting
have
that
because
I'm
sure
most
of
you
all,
I
know
I
am
hearing
a
lot
from
the
people
over
in
that
area,
because
and
right
now,
so
so
I
think
there's
some
solutions
out
there
we've
got
to
report
back.
I
think
we'll
find
a
way
to
pay
for
it.
Hypothetically.
E
Thanks,
I
was
just
I'm
gonna
text,
the
mayor.
It
meant,
maybe,
when
we
report
on
the
basin
work
that
we
could
add
the
signal
point
road
basins
to
which
has
been
primarily
the
county's
lead,
but
it's
a
similar
cooperative
arrangement
between
us
and
and
the
county
so
maybe
make
a
preparation
day
basis.
Is
that
signal
point?
It's
it's
toward
the
southern
part
of
james
island
down
by
the
right,
where
you
were
last
week,
mayor
near
the
j,
the
the
psd
headquarters,
south
down
toward
grumble
farm.
D
A
And
it's
okay,
mr
fountain
I'll
circle
back
to
you
about
the
do-off
area,
because
there
are
a
number
of
people
believing
in
that
I
want
to
come
forward
and
give
easements
to
try.
I
touch
based
on
the
last
meeting
on
that,
but
I
think
we
need
to
have
some
kind
of
potential
communication
that
go
out
goes
out
now.
D
F
Thank
you,
mr
chairman.
I
just
wanted
to
briefly
state
that
between
the
mention
of
south
windermere
central
park
and
doo-wop,
I'm
beside
myself,
I
mean
we
got.
We
got
district
11
covered
today
and
I
just
can't
say
how
thankful
I
am
that
we're
putting
some
wind
at
the
sales
of
these
initiatives
and
showing
our
folks
in
west
ashley
and
james
island
that
we're
not
about
just
studying
and
evaluating
these
issues.
F
A
C
And
mr
chairman,
I
can
certainly
start
and
if
okay,
if
jefferson,
would
like
to
jump
in
or
mr
zhulka,
so
I
mean
this
is
the
item
basically
to
adopt
the
to
amend
the
ordinances
to
adopt
the
the
fema
flood
insurance
study
for
charleston
county,
similar
to
what
we
did
with
berkeley
county.
When
the
new
flood
insurance
rate
maps
came
through
right,
this
has
an
effective
date.
The
way
fema
sets
these
up.
C
It
has
an
effective
date
for
all
parties
of
january
29,
2021,
that's
something
that
fema's
put
into
the
the
requirements
to
try
to
make
it
a
more
even
adoption
date
across
the
entire
series
of
jurisdictions
within
the
county.
So
it's
it's
a
little
more
straightforward
for
us
and
that's
why
we
have
that
effective
date
there
of
january
29
2021
in
the
ordinance.
So
if
it'll
and
if
mr
mcqueen
wants
to
weigh
in,
I
think
it's
a
three
reading
ordinance.
A
H
H
A
D
Chairman,
I
would
just
suggest
to
matt
and
our
team
that
we
we
make
sure
we
share
to
the
public
a
link
to
whatever
website.
Can
the
public
can
go
through
the
maps
and
take
a
look
at
them
and
that
kind
of
thing,
maybe
the
pio
office
can
help
with
that.
But
we
ought
to
try
to
get
the
word
out
if
anybody's
interested.
A
I
agree
all
right,
so
we
have
a
motion
on
this
already
we
didn't.
Yes,
I'm
back
to
properly
moved
in
second
about
councilman
griffin,
all
in
favor,
please
say
aye
aye
aye
any
opposed.
Thank
you
now.
I
think.
That's
it
any
last
items
move
forward
german
for
the
german
by
acclimation.
We
stand
with
james
and
you
know
what
my
meeting
did
last
shorter
than
real
estate.
I
just
want
you
to
know
that
counseling.
