City of Charleston Committee on Real Estate Meeting 1/9/23
B
Hello,
Mr
Mayor
all
right
good
afternoon,
everybody.
This
is
January
9th
2023
real
estate
committee
meeting,
the
first
real
estate
committee
meeting
of
2023,
it's
about
3,
30
and
we'll
go
ahead
and
get
started
with
councilman
Shades
invocation.
Take
it
away.
C
I
mean
I
gotta
click
on
two
buttons,
all
right,
so
almighty,
God
and
Father.
Look
upon
ask
your
unworthy
service
lead
us
in
this
new
year
for
a
new
beginning
of
our
work
as
members
of
your
Greater
Community,
guide
us
and
protect
us,
and
that
we
all
may
be
doing
the
will
of
the
City
of
Charleston
amen.
B
Thank
you,
councilman
shade.
Okay,
first
up
is
thank
you
moved
and
properly
seconded.
This
is
an
authorization
for
the
mayor
to
execute
some.
B
I'm
jumping
the
gun
here,
okay
motion
and
a
second
to
approve
the
minutes.
It's
on
the
floor,
any
discussion
hearing
none
all
in
favor,
please
signify
by
saying
aye.
B
Some
covenants
regarding
Fort
Pemberton
I,
see
Miss
Copeland
and
miscreach
are
yes
together.
Yeah
I
think
they're
gonna
have
their
work
cut
out
for
him
today.
D
Good
afternoon,
so
this
is
in
connection
with
the
the
grant
funds.
One
of
the
requirements
is
that
we
have
some
deep
restrictions
on
the
property
which
provide
for
the
Secretary
of
the
Interior
to
have
any
approval
authority
over
any
change
in
use
from
outdoor
recreational
uses
for
the
public,
including
any
transfer
or
future
sale,
the
property,
and
so
that
language,
that's
in
the
restrictive
covenant
is
directly
was
directly
provided
by
them.
And
that's
that's
the
only
Covenant
that
we're
asking
to
impose
a
bomb
property.
B
Big
deal,
thank
you
very
much
for
that.
Any
questions
of
staff.
B
B
Yeah,
this
is
just
I,
think
the
federal
government
in
exchange
for
giving
us
money
wants
to
make
sure
that
we're
using
this
as
a
park.
Yes,.
E
B
Deal
all
right
do
I,
move.
A
And
I
I
would
just
share
Mr,
chairman
and
council
members
that
we
have
a
similar
agreement
with
the
county,
given
the
fact
that
we
used
Greenbelt
funds
to
purchase
the
property.
So
it's
going
to
be
a
part.
B
Good
deal,
that's
great
news
and
Fort
Pemberton
is
in
my
district
over
in
Riverland
Terrace
and
very
excited
about
this
park.
It's
providing
public
access
to
the
water,
specifically
the
Stono,
River,
very,
very
important
project.
B
All
right,
we've
got
a
motion
moved
and
properly
seconded
any
further
discussion
hearing,
none
all
in
favor,
please
signify
by
saying
aye,
aye
aye
the
eyes
have
it
moving
on
to
Item
B.
This
is
an
authorization
for
the
mayor
to
execute
a
quick
claim
deed
regarding
some
property
over
in
Maryville
owned
by
Bubsy
LLC
Miss,
Copeland,
Miss
Screech.
Take
it
away.
E
E
This
Avenue,
this
is
Fifth
Avenue
right
here
in
West
Ashley,
the
house
sits
right
here
of
the
owner
of
Bubsy.
Llc
owns
this
piece
of
property.
The
property
we're
talking
about
today
is
outlined
in
blue.
This
is
lot
136
and,
as
you
can
see
right
here
in
this
picture,
this
is
the
West
Ashley
Bikeway
that
runs
back
through
here.
E
So
what
happened
back
in
the
day
was
when
the
rail
line
closed
up
the
rail
they
deeded
this
property
to
the
state,
the
state
then
in
turn
deeded
a
portion
of
this
property
to
the
city,
to
maintain
it
as
a
Bikeway
and
the
process
of
these
deed
transfers
and
we're
not
really
sure
when
this
may
have
happened,
probably
the
80s
or
the
90s.
Only
a
portion
of
this
property
was
deeded
to
the
city
and
I
would
say
it
runs
kind
of
across
this
way.
E
This
triangle
piece
right
here:
the
city
is
actually
in
the
chain
of
title
or
that
piece
of
property
is
in
the
city's
chain
of
title.
This
remaining
portion
back
here.
The
city
is
not
legally
in
the
chain
of
title.
In
fact,
it's
been
passed
down
through
several
other
families,
so
right
now
peasantly.
E
This
is
there's
going
to
need
to
be
a
quiet
title
action
on
this
piece
of
property
between
the
music
family
and
the
current
owner.
In
order
to
quiet
the
title
on
that.
Well,
the
owner
is
asking
for
the
city
to
do
is
quit
claim
any
legal
rights
or
interests
they
may
potentially
have
in
this
back
piece
and
the
position
right
now
and
we
actually
retained
Kevin
Eberly
to
do
some
background.
E
Title
search
on
this
as
well
to
verify
the
position
that
Bubsy
LLC
is
taking,
and
he
has
in
turn
verified
that
the
city
has
no
legal
claim
through
the
chain
of
title
to
this
back
piece
right
here.
The
only
way
we
could
do
that
is
actually
to
take
the
state
to
court
and
potentially
claim
adverse
possession
against
the
state
which
I
don't
think,
there's
been
any
Court
in
this
state.
E
That's
ruled
on
something
like
this,
but
if
you
look
right
here,
one
of
the
exhibits
I
also
attached
with
the
memo,
shows
here's
a
lot
with
the
house
sitting
on
it
and
here's
the
back
lot
in
question
and
it's
the
blue
piece
that
they're
talking
about
the
yellow
is
definitely
within
the
chain
of
title
for
the
city.
And
then,
if
you
look
here,
this
is
a
plot
showing
the
property.
Okay.
So
there's
the
house
there's
Fifth
Avenue,
as
you
can
see
the
line
right
here.
E
This
yellow
line,
a
portion
of
the
house,
the
driveway,
some
of
the
fence,
is
sitting
in
this
property.
We're
talking
about
here's
an
actual
photo
of
it,
so
I
would
say
maybe
a
quarter
of
this
building
the
driveway
there's
a
fence
in
the
backyard
here.
This
is
all
and
has
historically
since
the
70s
been
sitting
on
this
property.
E
So
we
are
advocating
that
the
city
does
adopt
and
authorizes
the
mayor
to
sign
a
quick
claim
to
deed
over
any
legal
claim
or
interest
in
this
piece
of
property.
Here
with
the
structure
sitting
on
it.
Any
questions.
E
C
E
B
Moved
and
probably
seconded
any
further
discussion,
Mr
Mayor.
A
A
And
you
mentioned
that
somehow
we
were
in
the
chain
of
title
for
the
back
portion
of
it.
This.
E
A
A
Looked
it
looks
like
before
the
railroad
it
ever
came
through
that
there
was
separate
lots
that
faced
Front,
Street
or
Rock
Street
or
whatever
that
yeah.
F
A
And
so
yeah
they
even
have
separate
numbers
there
on
them
that
face
the
other
Street.
A
But
when
you
say
we
had,
we
were
in
the
chain
of
title
for
Park
and
not
the
other
part,
and
there
was
never
a
separate
TMS
number.
Was
it
just
by
the
meats
and
bounds
by
the
measurements
that
we
were
in
the
chain
of
title
I.
E
Believe
so
that's
how
that's,
how
both
Kevin,
Everly
and
and
whoever
Mr
McFarland
the
lawyer
for
Bubsy,
has
described
it.
A
Gotcha
all
right,
I'm,
fine
with
it
I,
was
just
curious
as
to
make
sure
we
we
didn't
have
some
more
definitive
ownership
in
it.
Before
saying
goodbye,
understood.
A
G
G
G
B
B
This
is
an
authorization
to
execute
on
behalf
of
the
city,
a
utility
easement-
and
this
is
in
connection
to
certain
upgrades
near
the
Charleston
Marina
and
Miss
Copeland
I,
see
you've
got
all
kinds
of
colorful
lines
on
the
screen.
Take
it
away.
Thank.
E
E
New
Transformer
new
switch
gear,
they're,
basically
upgrading
all
the
hardware
and
the
the
Transformers
that
are
currently
in
the
parking
lot
of
the
marina.
So
that's
what
this
utility
easement
is
for.
Eign.
E
No
none
of
it's
new,
it's
just
replacing
old
hardware
and
Transformers
I-
did
ask
if
any
undergrounding
was
going
to
be
taking
place
in
any
of
this
and
I
believe
the
answer
was
no.
This
is
just
replacing.
G
G
D
Very
PVC,
conduit,
48
inches
deep.
E
C
E
B
Yeah
I,
don't
know
how
it
might
not
be
the
best
place
to
underground
stuff.
It
might
might
be
a
little
wet
over
there.
Yeah.
H
B
No
I'm,
no
engineer,
certainly
not
an
electrical
engineer.
So
all
in
favor,
please
signify
by
saying
aye
the
eyes
have
it
item.
D
is
another
matter
pertaining
to
the
marina.
This
is
authorization
to
allow
SMH,
Charleston,
City,
Marina
LLC
to
appeal
tax
year
2022
valuations,
and
this
is
property
owned
by
the
City
of
Charleston
Miss
Copeland.
Please
take
it
away
sure.
E
Okay,
so
this
the
current
tenet
of
this
particular
area
is
the
marina
parcel
course
and
the
docs,
and
currently
our
tenant
is
shm
Charleston,
City
Marina.
We
have
a
long-term
lease
with
them.
They
have
an
extension
period,
all
the
way
to
2046.,
and
this
lease
has
been
in
place
since
I
believe
2016..
E
So,
apparently
in
2020
and
2021,
the
county
reassessed
the
property
pretty
significantly
from
5
million
to
26
million.
As
you
can
see,
and
that's.
E
That'll
wake
you
up
right,
yeah
that
would
be
tenant.
Who
is
responsible
for
the
property
taxes
naturally
was
concerned,
so
they
are
asking
for
permission
from
the
city
who
is
presently
the
landowner
and
who
has
the
authority
to
appeal
these
to
the
county
for
permission
through
an
mou
and
a
power
of
attorney
and
as
a
as
you
can
see
in
the
mou
year,
they're
going
to
be
responsible
for
all
the
fees
and
costs
associated
with
it.
E
We
have
an
Indemnity
provision
in
here
and,
of
course,
an
appeal
to
the
county
is
not
always
guaranteed,
but
just
for
the
record.
Historically,
we
had
a
similar
situation
in
the
Isle
of
Palms
with
their
Marina,
where
the
county
just
decided
to
start
doing
land
value
versus
retail
value,
and
we
went
through
a
pretty
long
appeal
with
that.
One
and
I
believe
we
were
successful
on
that
one.
E
So
this
is
not
something
new
and
I
think
we're
also
appealing
a
county
decision
on
an
assessment
of
the
West
Edge
garage
as
well.
Just
so
you
all
know.
So
this
is
not
new
territory
for
us,
I
do
believe:
I've
got
Robbie
Freeman
and
maybe
David
Isom
on
the
line
who
work
for
the
tenant.
Who
can
answer
any
questions
for
you
all
if
you
have
any
questions
about
the
story
or
the
history
of
the
lease
or
where
they're
coming
from?
B
All
right,
councilman,
shade.
C
C
Burden
falls
on
them
squarely
that
they
have
to
carry
the
ball
forward.
If
they're
gonna
be
successful,
correct
is
there
anything
in
the
the
lease
by
the
way
that
I
hate
to
say
it
requires
us,
but
holds
the
city
to
cooperate
with
the
tenant
on
these
kind
of
matters,
I
mean
I.
I
have
seen
some
lease
agreements
over
the
years
in
which,
if,
if
there's
a
there's
like
a
triple
net
lease,
essentially
it
says
required
the
city
to
cooperate
with
the
tenant.
E
I
Councilman
shade
I,
don't
know
of
any
this
lease
was
done
back
in
the
early
90s,
so
it's
there's
not
much
in
the
lease
about
property
taxes
other
than
we
have
to
pay
them
and-
and
we
have
historically
appealed
them
over
the
years
and
the
the
reason
we're
asking
for
your
permission
today
is
the
county
has
changed
their
policy
now
and
that
since
we're
not
the
land
owner,
we
have
to
get
the
landowner's
permission
to
do
the
appeal.
C
Listen,
it's
it's
too
day
to
say
to
see
him
Robbie
Bettis
to
the
city's
Advantage.
If
you
pay
more
in
taxes
because
we
get
a
bigger
share
out
of
that,
obviously,
but
it
seems
like
we
have
an
an
equity
obligation
to
to
you
guys
to
be
fair,
to
give
you
the
opportunity
to
have
this
reviewed,
so
I
mean
it
out
of
a
sense
of
fairness.
This
is
just
the
right
thing
to
do.
Obviously,
thank.
B
C
B
Our
tenant
simply
needs
us
to
sign
a
piece
of
paper,
giving
them
permission
to
appeal
the
valuation
they
still
have
to
do
it
make
the
case
for
it.
You
know
we
don't.
You
know,
have
any
obligation
to
participate
in
that
or
fund
that
it's,
it's
simple,
we're
simply
giving
them
the
opportunity
to
Avail
themselves
of
their
rights
and
I.
I,
certainly
think
it's
a
reasonable
request
under
the
circumstances,
and
especially
considering
the
long-standing
relationship
that
we
have
with
the
marina
yeah.
A
So
I
was
just
curious,
Robbie
is,
is
you
know
there
was
a
big
jump
in
the
the
gross
value,
but
also
in
in
the
the?
What
do
they
call
it?
Not
the
net
value,
but
the.
A
I
A
I
Safe
Harbor
the
lease
was
assigned
to
Safe
Harbor
that
ultimately
triggered
the
reassessment.
The.
A
Cap
value
is
what
I
was
thinking
of
because
it
looks
like
it
went
from
five
million
eight
to
nineteen
five,
that's
huge
yeah
yeah!
That's
a
huge
difference
that
now
I
ordered
also
on
the
other
parcel
I'm.
Just
seeing
your
yeah
the.
What
what
did
they
call
the
doc
parcel?
Is
that
a
separate
that's
a
separate
TMS
number
or
is
that
for
your
equipment
out?
There.
I
Yeah,
it's
a
separate,
TMS,
number
and
historically
most
of
the
stuff
on
the
water
goes
under
personal
property
depreciable
assets
as
opposed
to
real
property
so
and.
D
I
A
See
so
you're
you're
also
gonna
appeal
the
value
of
the
doc
parcel,
even
though
the
increase
there
was
pretty
marginal.
I
Yeah
part
of
our
appeal
process
is
is
enlightening,
the
county
on
the
difference
between
the
apostles,
but
also
you
know,
there's
four
other
lease
entities
here
on
this
in
this
complex
with
the
Rice
Mill
and
the
yacht
club
and
the
variety
store
and
three
Lockwood,
so
we've
got
to
educate
them
on
all
the
different
parcels.
A
Understood
all
right,
thank
you
for
for
clarifying
that
appreciate
it
yeah.
I
And
mayor,
if
I
could
go
back
for
a
minute,
the
previous
item,
you
all
asked
about
the
underground
utilities.
Yes,
sir
I
think
I
can
answer
those
questions
that
were
raised.
I
Some
of
those
utilities
are
currently
Underground
there.
There
are
some
new
ones
that
are
going
underground
and
it's
all
driven
by
trying
to
get
the
power
upgraded
and
more
reliable,
Dominion
likes
a
loop
feed
and
we've
got
two
Loops
through
the
marina
and
this
this
program
is
gonna,
make
one
big
loop
and
it
just
greatly
increases
the
reliability.
If
you
have
a
failure
in
any
of
the
feeders,
so
so
there
is
some
new
underground
in
there,
but
a
lot
of
that
has
also
existing
underground.
Actually.
H
C
You
have
another
question
for
you
sure:
do
you
know
why
the
county
has
gone
to
this
huge
jump
on
the
assessment
from
5
million
to
26
million
on
the
marina
parcel?
What
what
has
generated
that
and
and
the
follow-up
question
is-
is
this
going
to
have
a
snowball
impact
on
residential
private
ownership
values
as
well
is
what
you
see.
I
Yeah
councilman,
shade
I
think
we'll
figure
that
out
when
we
get
into
the
appeal
with
them
all
I
can
assume.
Is
you
know
they
have
that
huge
transaction
with
the
Ports
Authority
property?
I
A
few
years
ago
the
old
courts,
Authority
office,
building
and
I
think
when
this
thing
transferred
and
it
triggered
a
reassessment
they
just
looked
at
just
like
it
was
a
big,
unencumbered
piece
of
waterfront
property
that
you
know
somebody
could
come
in
here
and
build
a
big
hotel
or
something
yeah
and
that's
that's
all
I
can
guess
it's
we're,
not
even
in
the
accommodations
district
and
there's
a
there's
a
lot
of
encumbrances
on
this.
C
C
Who
have
docs
how
this
may
snowball
into
impacting
them
as
well
so
I
mean
there's,
there's
a
lot
of
property.
D
C
Councilmember
Greg
that
may
be
well
Us
in
Brooklyn
County.
It
would
be
a
different
animal
perhaps,
but
certainly
there
would
be
some
of
a
domino
effect.
This
could
have
on
their
property
as
well
I,
not
to
say
that
I
hope
this
happened
to
you,
Mr
Freeman
Robbie,
but
I
hope
that
part
of
this
is
based
on
a
commercial
versus
a
residential
Factor
on
on
this,
and
not
the
other
way
around.
But
good
luck
with
it
and
thanks
for
bringing
it
to
our
attention
all.
B
Absolutely
well
good
deal
I,
think
that
was
a
very
informative
exchange.
Any
further
questions
or
discussion.
I
I
It
was
good,
we
always
had
some
adjustments
and-
and
it
was
in
in
some
of
those
cases,
it
was
a
situation
where
they
were
double
taxing.
This
we
had
say
we
had
floating
docks
on
our
personal
property
schedule
and
they
had
also
counted
that
as
real
property.
So
it
was
it's,
it's
always
just
a
case
of
sitting
down
with
them
and
enlightening
them
and
unfortunately,
the
way
they
work
over
the
academy.
Now
you
just
you
have
to
go
through
this
appeal
process
to
get
to
the
table
with.
B
All
right
anybody
else,
I
think
we've
heard
from
almost
everybody
all
in
favor,
please
signify
by
saying
aye,
aye
aye
the
eyes.
Have
it
thank
y'all
from
the
marina
best
luck.
Thank
you
all
right
item
e.
This
is
an
approval
of
an
agreement
to
buy
and
sell
real
estate,
and
this
is
property
over
in
West
Ashley,
1819,
Wallace,
Lane,
29407.
B
And
I
believe
who
do
we
have
from
staff
to.
F
So
this
is
requesting
approval
to
move
forward
with
an
acquisition
to
acquire
1819
Wallace
Lane.
This
is
approximately
1.247
Acres.
As
you
can
see
on
your
screen,
it
is
a
TMS
ending
in
zero,
two
one
kind
of
highlighted
in
Orange
there.
That
purpose
this
acquisition
is
for
the
future
replacement
of
fire
station
16
on
Ashley
Hall
Plantation.
It's
parcel
is
about
half
a
mile
away
of
a
current
fire
station.
F
We
were
looking
at
90
days
due
diligence.
Purchase
price
is
415,
415,
000
dollars.
B
G
Yeah
I
do
go
ahead
on
this
one.
Do
we
know
anything
about
where.
D
F
I
do
not
off
the
top
of
my
head.
I
know:
we've
already
had
an
overlay
of
the
beast:
Ferry
Fire
Stations
Landing
fire
stations.
So
we
know
what
will
fit
here,
but
as
far
as
the
infrastructure
itself,
I
mean,
as
you
can
see,
tms020
there
is
a
house
there.
So
we
know
there
are
Services
well.
D
G
Intersection,
just
off
of
the
off
of
the
picture
hand
to
the
to
the
right,
that's
I,
don't
know
is
that
all
Cantrell
Boulevard
and
61
of
Tobias,
Gatson
and
61.,
but.
G
Just
below
where
you
yeah
magic
of
computing.
G
So
if
you
look
at
Tobias
Jackson
Boulevard,
where
it
intersects
with
with
Ashley
River
Road,
there's
an
intersection
there.
Okay,
you
know,
obviously,
when
it'd
be
nice
to
have
a
fire
station
where
you
can
control
them.
G
The
lights,
the
red
lights,
there's
an
intersection
here
and
then
there's
an
intersection,
I
guess
going
further
north,
where
you
turn
in
to
go
to
Ashley
Hall
Plantation
Road
I'm
wondering
about
the
ability,
correct
right,
but
you
got
them.
G
The
legs
marked
right
there,
so
I'm
wondering
about
the
ability
to
be
able
to
get
another
intersection
at
Richmond
Road
with
this
site
with
innocent
and
Ashley
River
Room,
because
I
got
to
tell
you
coming
out
there,
making
the
left
turn
of
the
Beast
actually
coming
out
there
and
making
a
turn
during
certain
times
of
the
beat.
So
is
that
part
of
contingency
to
find
out
whether
we
can
get
signalization
at
that
intersection
of
Richmond
and
Ashley
River
Road.
F
So
we
have
not
approached
that
issue
yet
council,
member
Waring
I
know
there
has
been
discussion
about
there
being
developments
across
the
street
here
right,
I
suspect.
When
that
happens
it
will.
It
will
be
very
interesting.
Obviously
you
know
with
scdot
there's
always
a
distance
between
traffic.
F
G
I
think,
as
far
as
the
size
of
the
site
and
the
site
being
not
in
a
flood
zone
and
all
that
kind
of
good
stuff,
it
certainly
makes
a
bill.
I,
actually
think
the
price
isn't
that
bad.
The
problem
is
I've
seen
if
you
go
further
down
61
I'm,
not
asking
you
to
find
that.
But
when
you
get
this
61
and
Sam
rittenbergs
and
Andrews
has
a
fire
station
there
and
every
time
they
come
out
there,
man
it's
kind
of
tenuous.
They
have
to
kind
of
wait
until
people
respect
their.
G
You
know
the
red
lights
coming
out
there,
making
a
left
turn
getting
to
61..
It
won't
be.
You
know
you
have
something
similar
here.
As
a
matter
of
fact,
if
you
go
back
to
the
intersection
of
Tobias
Jackson,
then
and
Ashley
River
Road
I,
guess
that
would
be
the
northeast
corner.
I!
Guess
of
that
intersection.
There's
an
out
parcel
there.
Now
that
property
is
a
little
bit
lower
than
the
site
you'll
be
looking
at,
but
and
maybe
it's
a
little
larger
than
the
site
we're
looking
at.
G
F
F
B
All
right,
I
think
I
saw
councilman
Chase
hand,
go
up
and
I
see.
Councilman
Greg
wants
to
address
this
item
as
well,
so
yeah.
G
F
I
am
not
going
to
click
on
that
with
my
City
yeah.
C
Okay,
if
you,
if
you
can
go
back
to
the
other
screen,
Matt
one
more
time,
I'm
sorry
I
could
not
let
that
pass.
I
was
looking
at
them
going.
What
in
the
world
is
that
this
may
be
to
council
member
wearing's
questioned
along
the
same
lines
Matt,
but
that
other
parcel
that's
identified
as
zero
to
zero.
That
corner
lot
is:
is
that
I
don't
know
that
was
part
of
the
contingency
question.
Councilmember
Wayne
was
asking,
but
is
there
any
opportunity
to
approaches
that
lot
as
well,
so.
F
We
do
know
so,
as
you
can
see
right
here,
that
the
line
there
is
currently
an
encroachment
of
that
home
onto
this
property,
we're
looking
to
acquire.
So
just
so.
You
know
this.
This
home
is
in
very
poor
condition.
There's
no
one
living
there.
It's
probably
a
tear
down
the
current
property
owner,
has
reached
out
to
this
property
owner
and
has
not
had
any
success
asking
about
acquiring
it.
F
But
we
are
aware
of
this
encroachment.
We
know
that
we
can
fit
a
two-bay
fire
station
on
here,
even
with
the
encroachment
it
could
adjust
the
property
line,
but
we
would
like
to
potentially,
if
we
acquire
this
property,
have
conversations
with
this
property
owner
about
acquiring
the
property
on
the
corner
as
well,
potentially
one
just
because
it's
going
to
give
easier
access
to
Richmond
Street
as
an
option,
but
it
would
also
give
us
the
flexibility
to
put
a
three
base
station
here.
If
we
so
needed.
C
And,
and
also
you,
you
could
get
rid
of
an
eyesore
on
top
of
that
as
as
well
so,
and
even
if
we
don't
use
it
for
fire
department
uses,
there
may
be
other
City
uses
that
we
could
use
out
there
as
well.
So
I
would
just
encourage
if
we
can,
if
we
can
lock
in
that
full
block
Matt.
That
would
be
a
huge
Advantage
with
the
city
for
a
lot
of
reasons.
Absolutely
mainly
you
get
access
to
Richmond
Street
for
Ingress
egress
as
well
foreign.
B
Right,
thank
you.
Councilman
shade,
Councilman
Greg
did
you
have
a
comment
question.
C
Nope
councilman
shade
addressed.
G
I
I
agree
with
councilmania
than
that.
We
still
should
lock
it
in,
because
I
do
think.
If
not
this
I
think
the
city
certainly
can
use
it.
For
something
else.
Is
this
property
I
thought
I
saw
a
Zone
commercial
Matt.
Do
you
know
the
zoning
on.
F
F
G
G
You
know
that
bad,
especially
if
it's
on
commercial
but
I,
can
tell
you
if
we
can
get
the
right
to
put
a
signal
there,
such
that
when
you
know
the
firemen
have
to
go
out
on
emergencies,
be
able
to
stop
traffic
then,
but
I
think
that
would
be
key
for
fire
station.
Let's
put
it
like
that
anyway,
thank
you,
Mr
Jim.
B
A
B
Seconded
any
discussion,
all
in
favor,
please
signify
by
saying
aye
aye
the
guys
have
it
item
F.
This
is
an
authorization
for
the
mayor
to
execute
a
permanent
right-of-way
and
utility
easement,
and
this
is
in
connection
with
176
law
Lockwood
in
the
College
of
Charleston
I.
Think
is
this
a
is
this
a
Julia
item.
E
Yeah
this
is
me
sorry.
I
was
unable
to
turn
unmute
my
mic,
while
I
was
screen
sharing
for
some
reason.
Okay,
here
we
go.
Some
of
you
in
public
works.
May
remember
this
one
from
last
time,
so
we're
talking
about
176,
Lockwood
right
here,
that's
that
College
of
Charleston
building
and
what
they
are
asking
for
presently
is
there's
a
cistern
somewhere
around
here
and
there's
sewers
running
into
the
cistern
and
they're
having
some
problems
with
the
structural
Integrity
of
that
particular
setup.
E
So
what
they
would
like
to
do
is
run
a
pipe
under
this
and
connect
to
our
existing
sewer
line
and
I'm
going
to
pull
that
up.
You
see
this
here,
the
the
plat
showing
the
drawing
you
guys
can
see
that
can't
you,
yes,.
E
Yeah,
just
making
sure
so
I
do
have
the
engineers
I
hope
on
the
line.
I
did
send
them
the
zoom
link
as
well,
but
I
think
during
Public
Works.
The
question
came
up
from
the
mayor
and
rightfully
so
is
this
easement
going
to
in
any
way
prohibit
or
hinder
any
future
build
in
case
the
city
ever
wants
to
put
a
new
police
department
building
right
here
on
180
Lockwood,
and
so
this
is
the
response
we
got
back
from
the
engineers
and
Jeff.
Are
you
on
or
who
is
there?
E
Yes,
I've
got
your
drawing
up
here.
If
you
want
to
talk
through
this
and
explain
to
them
what
you're
trying
to
say
here.
That
would
be
helpful
if
this
is
your.
If
these
are
your
notes,.
H
I'm
I'm
sorry
I'm
on
the
phone.
Only
the
I
believe
there
was
a
there
were
some
comments
back
from,
would
it
have
been
Matt,
fountain
or
or
someone
regarding
there's
an
existing
drainage
Eve
along
the
South
Boundary
of
the
police
station
site,
correct.
E
H
H
This
proposed
easement
is
a
15
foot
wide
that
that
does
occupy
some
of
the
same
spaces
as
that
is
that
easement,
and
so
so
you
you
wouldn't
be
able
to
build
to
that
to
that
line
already
and
then
my
other
comment
would
be
and
I
don't
know
if
it's
on
I
apologize
for
not
being
on
the
computer,
but
that
you
can't
get
that
or
the
only
thing
it
would
preclude
is
if
you
were
going
to
build
almost
all
the
way
up
to
the
existing
structure
at
99,
West
Edge,
the
the
back
of
the
garage
building,
so
that
that
would
be
the
encumbrance
right
there.
H
E
There
you
go
so
to
answer
your
question
mayor.
This
should
not
hinder
our
ability
to
future
building
on
this
footprint.
However,
just
for
safe
measure,
I
insert
it
into
the
current
easement
document,
a
provision
that,
if
that
ever
comes
up
and
these
lines
have
to
be
moved
to
accommodate
a
footprint
that
the
college
will
accommodate
and
cover
the
cost
of
moving
their
own
line.
So
we're.
A
Working
right
now
great
well.
Well,
thank
you
all
for
taking
the
extra
time
to
to
look
at
that
and
figure
it
out
and
yes,
I
am
I,
guess
I
called
Lee
batchelder
the
day
after
our
meeting
we
discussed
this
and
he
said
we
had
to
stay
20
feet
off
of
that
that
parking
garage
anyway,
yeah
so
I
I
guess
this
goes
a
little
further
than
the
20
feet
is
what
he's
saying
that
that
pink,
pink
shaded
area.
E
A
Yeah
but
I
get
it
it's
it's
it's
tight
and
that's
where
cars
would
be
coming
in
and
out
of
the
garage
anyway.
So
it's
it's
probably
all
going
to
work
out
fine,
but
thank
you
for
putting
that
caveat
in
there
just
in
case.
We
need
to
redo
it
down
the
road
system.
G
Chairman
I
do
have
Mr
Bill
one
of
the
things
you
brought
up
the
last
time.
I
thought
was:
can
we
go
back
to
that?
Drawing
sure?
Was
it
possible?
You
know,
I,
don't
know
if
it
was
Gaston
Creek
deal
a
possible
walk,
walkway,
a
walking
path,
maybe
coming
through
this
and
potentially
in
the
future.
You.
A
Right
and
I
I
went
out
in
like
a
walked.
It
myself
after
our
last
meeting
and
honestly,
the
other
side
of
the
property
there's
already
a
sidewalk.
A
portion
of
the
way
already
is
between
the
college
and
the
Marriott
right,
and
it's
it's
more
Central
to
the
middle
of
the
block.
So,
to
be
honest
with
you,
I
think
the
other
side
of
the
property
is
is
better
for
the
sidewalk
good.
B
All
right,
all
in
favor,
please
signify
by
saying
aye,
aye
aye
the
eyes
have
it
now
on
to
the
annexation
portion
of
our
program.
We
got
three
annexations
up.
One
is
over
on
moved
and
properly
again
seconded
and.
B
Yep
we
got
three
annexations
one
in
West
Ashley,
two
in
West
Ashley,
one
on
John's
Island,.
J
Yes,
that's
correct,
one
is
a
the
222
Island
Drive
is
single
family
residential.
J
J
The
Griffith
annexation
with
Mr
Griffith
over
there
and
it's
a
yeah
I.
G
B
Good
deal
good
deal
all
right,
any
further
discussion,
all
in
favor,
please
signify
by
saying
aye
aye
the
ice
habit
for
items,
G1,
G2
and
G3
next
up
item
H:
this
is
a
authorization
for
the
mayor
to
execute
a
deed
of
modification
and
release
of
Prior
deed,
and
this
is
regarding
334
Calhoun
Street,
and
this
is
also
identified
as
an
executive
session
item
if
needed.
B
So
maybe
we
ought
to
have
staff
kind
of
give
us
a
very
ten
thousand
foot
view
of
this,
and
then
Council
can
make
a
decision
whether
to
enter
into
executive
session
for
legal
advice
on
this
contractual
matter,
if
necessary,.
E
Gracious
I
will
get
this
right
eventually
y'all.
You
know
it
only
took
three
years
there
we
go:
okay,
here's
the
County
GIS
map.
This
is
the
parcel
that
we're
talking
about
right
here.
It's
334,
Calhoun,
okay,
so
the
county
is
asked
that
we
sign
a
deed
modification
and
the
history
on
this
is
in
1967
prior
to
1967,
the
state
deeded,
this
giant
swath
of
property
to
us
and
under
portions
of
this
property
there
were
certain
restrictions
right
that
the
property
could
only
be
used
solely
for
medical
purposes.
E
In
67
we
transferred
this
particular
piece
to
the
county
without
said
restrictions
on
the
deed.
So
for
some
unknown
reason
back
in
2001,
the
city
unilaterally
adopted
a
modified
deed,
placing
the
restrictions
back
on
the
property.
The
county
has
taken
the
position
that
this
should
not
have
been
done
unilaterally.
It
should
have
been
done
jointly.
We
tend
to
agree
with
this
position,
so
they're
asking
for
this
deed
modification
to
essentially
revert
back
to
the
1967
deed
and
the
language
that
is
in
that
particular
deed.
E
E
C
B
All
right
hearing,
none
all
in
favor,
please
signify
by
saying
aye,
aye
aye
sounds
like
the
eyes
have
it.
Thank
you
Miss
Copeland.
Finally,
we
have
an
executive
session
item
for
the
discussion
of
real
property
acquisition.
So
I
will
entertain
a
motion
to
go
into
executive
session
to
receive
legal
advice
so.
