Description
City of Charleston Committee on Real Estate 3/13/2023
A
B
All
right,
good
afternoon,
everybody
I'd
like
to
call
to
order
the
March
13th
2023,
make
committee
on
real
estate
meeting
for
the
City
of
Charleston.
Let's
get
things
started
with
an
invocation
council
member
shade.
Would
you
please
do
the
honors.
C
Well,
thank
you
Mr
chairman
and
in
our
Christian
tradition,
this
is
the
season
of
Lent
and
during
the
season
of
Lent,
we
were
called
the
mind
of
the
sacrifices
that
were
our
challenged:
the
sacrifices
of
humility
and
sacrifices
of
deprivation
and
preparing
us
for
the
resurrection
of
Our
Lord.
C
So
during
this
time,
let's
be
mindful
of
the
sacrifices
that
we
make
from
our
members
of
our
city
staff
from
our
First
Responders
submitters
of
this
Committee
in
our
Council
and
our
mayor
that
we
we
call
in
mind
our
the
need
of
sacrificing
the
need
of
reflection
and
that
we
we
do
that
with
an
open
heart
and
and
a
loving
heart
to
serve
one
another
amen.
A
B
About
that,
let's
go
ahead
and
approve
the
February
27
2023.
D
B
Eyes
have
it
first
item
on
the
agenda.
Is
a
resolution
to
an
approve,
an
amendment
of
the
agreement
for
development
of
joint
County
Industrial
Park
between
Charleston
County
and
Colleton
County,
and
this
is
more
property
owned
by
the
City
of
Charleston.
Both.
B
C
F
G
Oh,
that
this
is
mad,
so
this
is
just
a
pretty
standard
thing
we
do
at
the
county.
It
essentially
allows
for
certain
properties
and
return
developments
that
are
expanding,
adding
jobs
to
have
the
fee
and
Lou
as
an
option,
because
we
we
run
across
this
at
least
once
a
year.
This
isn't
abnormal
it's
three
separate
businesses.
This
time
memory
serves
typically
a
lot
of
times,
Jeremy
cook
with
hazel
Sinkler
boys
species,
but
he
wasn't
available
today.
B
Got
it
got
it
okay,
very,
very
interesting:
does
anybody
have
any
questions.
D
B
Aye
sounds
like
the
eyes.
Have
it
next
item
on
the
agenda?
Is
an
ordinance
authorizing
the
mayor
to
execute
an
mou
with
the
Low
Country
Land
Trust
and
Angel
Oak
Park
LLC.
H
B
And
properly
seconded
and
Miss
Copeland
take
it
away.
F
All
right,
thank
you,
chairman
I'll,
make
this
brief.
So
this
is
the
precursor
to
the
operation
and
maintenance
agreement
which
will
follow
once
this
comprehensive
plan
and
this
park
is
built
out.
But
specifically,
it
describes
the
amount
of
money
that
we'll
be
allocating
for
our
respective
pieces
of
this
park.
F
Also
part
of
the
plan
will
be
a
security
study
to
see
what
kind
of
perimeter,
fencing
and
Security
will
need
to
be
installed
around
the
tree
itself
at
a
later
date,
and
once
we
get
those
plans,
we'll
probably
be
in
front
of
you
again
to
talk
about
the
split
when
we
get
that
amount
right
now,
we've
got
low
country,
Land
Trust,
paying
25
percent
of
the
perimeter,
fencing
in
security
detail
in
the
city,
paying
the
remaining
75.
B
Good
deal,
thank
you,
Miss
Copeland,
any
questions
from
the
committee.
You
know
say:
Full
Speed
Ahead
on
this
project.
D
E
B
F
Thank
you
again,
Mr
chairman,
so
right
now
the
mou
gives
our
review
period
until
March
18th.
So
what
I
would
like
to
do
when
I'm
asking
this
Canadian
Council
to
do,
is
to
extend
this
review
period
to
30
days
to
April
13th,
which
would
be
several
days
after
our
April
meeting
the.
What
we
would
like
to
do
as
far
as
staff
is
concerned
is
provide
one
viable
proposal
for
you
all
to
consider
on
the
floor
and
give
it
an
up
or
down
vote
right
now.
F
We've
got
a
lot
of
moving
parts
and
I'm
I.
Just
my
concern
was
that
I
would
put
too
many
proposals
up
in
front
of
you.
We'd
be
making
sausage
on
the
floor,
so
we're
just
asking
for
additional
time
to
give
you
something
a
little
more
finalized
to
consider
and
vote
for
or
against,
and
we've
had
I
think
Jason
Wards
on
here
as
well.
If
you
have
any
questions
again
with
landmark.
C
Right,
yes,
thank
you.
So,
first
of
all,
I
need
to
extend
an
apology
to
Jason
and
Jonathan
I
didn't
get
a
chance
to
hook
up
with
them
to
have
a
discussion
with
them
about
this
resolution
and
I
want
to
put
on
the
floor
an
opportunity
to
create
a
ad
hoc
committee,
Mr
chairman,
to
include
you
and
me
and
councilwoman
Waring,
councilmember,
Gregory
and
council
member
siegings.
We've
had
a
very
good
and
robust
discussion
about
the
status
of
of
this
project.
C
You
know
this
is
right
in
my
heart
of
my
of
my
district,
something
that
the
mayor
and
I
have
been
working
on,
I
think
just
2016.
Quite
frankly,
if
not
surely
thereafter
and
we've
had
several
meetings
about
this,
this
project
has
moved
through
the
DNR
drv
and
had
a
lot
of
success.
Participation
with
this
I-
and
this
is
one
of
my
passionate
projects
and
and
I-
think
this
gives
us
an
opportunity
to
answer
some
of
the
questions
that
councilwoman
will
wearing
and
councilman
were
seeking,
have
brought
to
my
attention
about
about
this.
C
So
one
of
the
things
that
we
were
talking
about
and
looking
at
was
closing
sumar
Street
and
that's
why
I
would
want
to
include
councilmember
seekinges
from
t
t
committee
on
this
and
Ways
and
Means
council
member
Gregory.
So
I
made
that
in
the
form
of
a
formal
motion,
Mr
chairman
within
this
30-day
extension
that
we
do
that
to
sort
of
answer.
Some
of
these
issues
of
concern
that
we've
been
abiding
around
to
to
do
that.
B
E
What
no
don't
we
have
a
motion
on
the
floor
right
now
for
approval
of
this
30-day
mou,
her
extension.
A
Got
made
along
with
the
combination
of
formation
of
this
I,
guess
you
call
it
an
ad
hoc
committee
to
okay.
A
It's
it's
together
so
and
I
I
think
it's
always
positive
and
transparent.
To
answer
any
and
all
questions,
could
you
just
kindly
repeat
the
the
goals
of
the
committee
and
and
what
specifically,
they
would
seek
to
to
to
add
to
the
conversation
or
ask
of
of
The
Proposal?
Yes,.
C
Sir,
so
one
of
the
I
I
think
major
concerns
and
questions
that
we've
had
with
this
project.
C
Mr
Mayor
and
other
members
of
the
committee
is
in
a
play
with
Sue
Mars
Street
on
on
this
project,
and
one
of
the
one
of
the
project
calls
for
an
underground
garage
being
constructed
on
the
property,
and
it
also
is
a
mix
used
to
include
the
Civic
area
that
the
city
would
occupy,
along
with
retail
and
restaurant
and
office
spaces,
to
be
included
as
well.
C
What
what
has
happened
recently
that
has
raised
some
concerns,
particularly
my
constituents,
was
this
review
of
Ashley
Landing
part
of
the
plans
for
obviously
Landing
include
the
the
relocation
of
the
Publix
grocery
store
on
that
site
to
be
relocated,
which
is
now
been
vacated
by
an
auto
parts
store
and
a
Dollar
Tree
store,
along
with
other
buildings,
so
on
the
Piggly
I'm,
sorry
on
the
Publix
site
that
exists.
C
Now,
the
plans
call
for
what's
that
road
store
is
relocated
towards
the
Charleston
Estates
Street
side
that
that
Public's
be
demolished
and
Incorporated
with
I,
think
278
apartment
units
or
residential
units.
So
some
concerns
have
come
up
about
the
development
of
of
that
residential
unit
traffic
concerns
and
whether
or
not
closing
Sumo
Street
can
alleviate
some
of
those
concerns,
including
traffic
and
Ingress
egress
and
parking
as
well.
So
I
think
this
is
an
opportunity
to
sort
of
address
some
of
these
questions
and
concerns
along
those
lines.
C
My
goal
is
making
sure
this
project
is
successful
and
has
a
blessing
of
counsel,
but
also
addressing
some
of
the
issues
that
may
be
brought
up
by
my
colleagues,
so
hopefully
that
we
can.
We
can
get
this
this
collaborative
effort,
and
if
we
need
to
tweak
this
project,
we
need
to
tweak
it
that
we
do
need
to
answer
some
of
these
questions.
I
think
they're
critically
important.
B
Right
does
anybody
else
from
the
committee?
Have
any
questions
comments,
things
of
that
nature?
B
B
This
is
a
project
that
needs
the
support
Council
and
we
need
to
work
hard
to
see
if
we
can
get
there,
because
it's
important
to
be
putting
our
money
where
our
mouth
is
when
it
comes
to
West,
Ashley,
revitalization,
so
I'm
fully
in
support
of
this
any
further
discussion
hearing,
none
all
in
favor,
please
signify
by
saying
aye,
aye
aye.
C
And
Jason
and
Jonathan
again
my
apologies:
I
was
I.
Just
went
out
of
time.
I'll
get
back
with
y'all,
if
not
today,
hopefully
by
tomorrow,.
A
And
I'd
certainly
respect
y'all's
schedules,
but
I
I
would
respectfully
ask
that
you
allow
any
other
council
members
and
the
mayor
who
would
like
to
attend
any
of
these
meetings
to
be
invited,
so
we
could
participate
as
well.
Absolutely.
Thank
you.
Absolutely.
B
Okay,
that
concludes
our
I,
guess:
non-non
annexation
portion
of
the
program
next
up,
we've
got
six
separate
annexation
requests.
C
Just
want
to
rub
it
in
that
you
got
more
properties
in
District
Seven
to
differentiation.
That's
right!.
B
I
think
we're
about
out
in
District
11,
but
we're
we're.
You
never
know,
there's
always
a
few
more
out
there.
C
Mr
chairman
I
knew
that
item
D
items
I
through
six
all
be
approved.
Second,
okay,.
B
Moved
improperly
seconded
do
we
have
anything
from
staff
just
to
quickly
run
through
these?
It
looks
like
these
are
all
Residential
Properties,
but.
H
Yes,
sir
Mr
chairman
I'm
here
for
Molly
she's
on
vacation
today,
but
they're,
all
residential,
with
the
exception
of
1721
Ashley
River
Road,
which
is
a
commercial
structure
on
a
quarter
acre.
There.
H
D
H
D
Well,
you
had
to
have
a
question
on
these.
This
is
a
Tracy
McGee
question.
Now
that
we've
voted
on
the
new
district
line,
we
now
representing
those
lines.
We
don't
represent
those
new
District
Lines
until
we
get
until
the
November
election
I.
B
Good
deal
all
right
got
a
motion
on
the
floor
moved
and
properly
seconded
to
approve
all
six
annexations
all
in
favor,
please
signify
by
saying
aye,
aye
aye
the
eyes
have
it,
and
the
last
item
on
our
agenda
is
an
executive
session
item.
B
At
this
time,
I
would
move
to
go
into
executive
session
to
receive
legal
advice
on
the
potential
land,
sales
or
Acquisitions
related
to
the
Avondale
intersection
Improvement
project.
So.
B
I
was
just
so
excited
to
to
do
it
myself,
all
right,
moved
and
properly
seconded
any
discussion
hearing,
none
all
in
favor,
please
signify
by
saying
aye
aye,
and
we
will.
