Description
City of Charleston Committee on Traffic and Transportation 6/13/2023
A
Thank
you.
First
order
of
businesses
are
minutes
which
I
believe
are
being
deferred,
we'll
take
them
up
in
July
am
I
right
about
that.
Yes,
next,
what
is
next?
I've
got
two
different
things:
all
right.
Next
approval
resolution,
Municipal
State
Highway,
Patrol
project
agreement
with
the
scdot
quarter,
safety,
Improvement
project
who's.
B
C
Yes,
sir,
this
is
an
update
on
the
from
the
previous
meeting.
We
plan
to
apply
for
a
grant
in
the
amount
of
125
000,
which
requires
a
20
match,
so
it'll
be
a
total
of
150
000
that
we'll
be
applying
for
that's
due
July.
The
10th.
D
D
A
C
Sir
we'll
be
using
this
150
000
to
update
the
city-wide
Transportation
study
that
was
done
in
2018
and
that
will
allow
us
to
make
it
into
a
safety
action
plan
which
is
required
by
the
federal
government
before
we
can
apply
for
additional
funds
through
the
same
program
and
once
we
get
through
that,
we'll
we'll
look
to
apply
for
more
funds
with
that
safety
action
plan
in.
D
C
C
D
E
Brady,
yes,
thank
you
Mr
chairman
and
Mr
Mayor,
so
this
is
born
out
of.
As
we
know,
the
city
installed,
the
traffic
light
at
Fenwick
and
Maybank
Highway
they've
been
diligently
working
to
make
sure
that
the
timing
is
as
such
that
it
reduces
as
much
as
possible
any
impacts
along
the
Maybank
Corridor,
but
I
think
what
it
is.
Illustrated
and
the
resolution
touches
on
the
population
growth
as
well
is
that
there
needs
to
be
especially
two
lanes
going
off
the
island
from
the
bank.
E
Highway
there's
two
lanes
coming
on
two
lanes
coming
off
would
eliminate
the
merge,
which
is
I'm
sure,
Mr.
Somerville
knows
that
merge
has
created
quite
a
backup
because
I
think
a
zipper
merge
is
unfamiliar
to
many
people
and
they've.
The
county
has
put
a
sign
up
that
mentions
alternating
merging,
while
it's
congested,
so
hopefully
people
will
take
heat
of
that,
but,
at
the
end
of
the
day,
the
infrastructure
solution
to
widen
Maybank
Highway
is
one
that
I
know.
E
I've
heard
a
lot
about
from
my
constituents,
and
you
know
something.
I
would
hope
that
city
council
would
support,
because
councilmember
Boykin
at
the
county
has
asked
the
county
staff
to
look
into
this
and
I
know.
Our
city
staff
will
also
be
working
in
tandem
with
our
County
Council
and
County
employee
counterparts,
so
that
we
can
work
on
improvements
in
that
area
and
obviously
widening
Is
Not,
the
Only
Solution
there's
some
other
improvements
along
that
Corridor
that
can
be
considered
as
well.
E
I
think
that,
in
conjunction
with
the
main
Road
Corridor
projects
will
really
bring
some
needed
relief,
and
so
this
is
just
kind
of
one
more
tool
in
the
toolbox
to
help
us
move
this
forward.
A
Okay,
any
questions
comments
on
this
man
so.
D
Mr
chairman
and
with
councilmember
Brady's
approval,
I
I'd
like
to
just
specify,
maybe
at
the
end
of
the
second,
whereas
that
said,
improvements
will
include
two
full
travel
Lanes
heading
from
River
Road
to
the
galagadas
bridge.
A
D
A
Got
a
motion
in
a
second:
we
did
all
right
as
amended
with
the
mayor's
comments
in
paragraph
two,
any
other
discussion,
all
in
favor,
aye
aye
any
opposed
the
eyes
have
it
are
you
wondering
who
made
the
motion
in
a
second
council
member
Brady
made
the
motion
the
mayor
made
the
second?
If
that
happened,
it
did
not
know
excellent.
A
Thank
you
by
the
way
councilmember
Brady
on
Tuesday
night.
If
you
don't
mind
presenting
this
to
full
Council,
because
I
won't
be
there,
it
seems
like
a
natural
for
you
anyway,
so
yep.
That
sounds
great
great.
Thank
you
very
much
all
right.
Next,
two
items
of
business
we're
going
to
take
together
for
B
and
C
they're,
both
certificate
of
public
convenience
and
necessity,
Mr
Somerville.
B
Yes,
sir,
we
have
two
sami's
transportation
as
well
as
Echo
green
dog,
LLC,
limousine
applications
that
were
submitted
to
the
city
to
operate,
submitted
to
traffic
and
transportation
to
be
able
to
operate
within
the
City
of
Charleston.
We
reviewed
legal
has
reviewed
and
we're
requesting
approval.
Okay,.
A
D
A
We
got
a
second
any
discussion.
Any
questions
comments
all
in
favor.
Are
there
any
opposed
that
comes
the
end
of
our
agenda?
We've
been
here
just
for
a
couple
minutes.
Is
there
anything
else
that
needs
to
come
before
this
committee
I
see
some
other
members
of
TNT
here
anything
we
need
to
talk
about
if
not
I'll,
entertain
a
motion
to
adjourn,
don't
move
so
moved.
Second,
we
are
hereby
adjourn.
