[00:05:06]

NEXT IS A PRESENTATION OF A PROCLAMATION HONORING THE MONTFORD POINT MARINES WHICH WILL BE SAID BY COUNCIL MEMBER YORKE GLOVER. MR. GLOVER, WOULD YOU PLEASE READ THE PROCLAMATION FIRST SAY THIS THAT WHEN I FIRST HEARD ABOUT THE MONTFORD POINT MARINES MY DAD USED TO MAKE. YEAH. YEAH.

OK. THANK. IT ACTUALLY WAS ABOUT FOUR FIVE YEARS AGO. ONE OF MY CHURCH MEMBER INTRODUCED ME.

AND FOR YEARS HE'S BEEN INVITING ME TO THE BANQUET AND I'VE BEEN REFUSING TO GO.

AND I FINALLY WENT AND AS A RESULT OF THAT I LEARNED ABOUT HIM AND THIS IS AN EXCELLENT OPPORTUNITY TO HONOR THEM WITH THIS PROCLAMATION FROM COUNSEL. AND IT SAYS WHEREAS OPPORTUNITIES FOR AFRICAN-AMERICANS TO ENLIST AND SERVE IN THE MARINE CORPS CAME IN 19 42. AND AS THE CORPS BEGAN TO RECRUIT QUALIFIED AFRICAN-AMERICAN MEN BY EXECUTIVE ORDER 88 0 2. AND WHEREAS PRESIDENT FRANKLIN D. ROOSEVELT ISSUED EXECUTIVE ORDER 88 OR TWO ON JUNE 25TH, 1941 WHICH PROHIBIT ALL RACIAL DISCRIMINATION IN THE ARMED SERVICES AND WHEREAS IN EARLY 1942 THE MARINE CORPS ESTABLISHED CAMP IN MONTFORD POINT, NORTH CAROLINA AS A RECRUIT DEPAUW TO TRAIN AFRICAN-AMERICAN MARINE RECRUIT AND WHEREAS THE FIRST MARINES ARRIVE MONTFORD POINT ON AUGUST 26 19 42. BETWEEN 1942 BETWEEN 1942 IN 1949 APPROXIMATELY TO 20000 RECRUITS RECEIVED BASIC TRAINING AT MONTFORD POINT, MOST OF THEM GOING ON TO SERVE IN THE PACIFIC DURING WORLD WAR 2 AS A MEMBER OF SUPPORT UNITS.

AND WHEREAS MUMFORD POINT MARINES ARE HAILED AS IMPORTANT FIGURES IN AMERICAN HISTORY BECAUSE THEY WILLINGLY FOUGHT TO PROTECT A NATION THAT STILL DID NOT OFFER THEM BASIC CIVIL RIGHTS. THE ACTIONS SET THE PRECEDENT FOR THE CORPS AND THEIR LEGACY CONTINUES WITHIN THE MARINES WHO SERVE TODAY AND NOW THEREFORE WE RESOLVE THAT BEFORE KENT COUNTY COUNCIL RECOGNIZE EDITH ANNIVERSARY OF THE MONTH OF POINTE MARINES CONGRATULATIONS AS WELL AS THE AWARD AS VETERANS DAY BE AS CONGRESS WON THE CONGRESSIONAL GOLD MEDAL FOR BRAVERY IN 2012.

>> ROUND FIVE HUNDRED WERE EASY TO THAT EVERYONE I EVER MET WITH FOUL ABOUT ONE OF THEM THAT WAY. REMARKABLE POINT AND WE'VE ONLY FOUND ABOUT TWO THOUSAND FAMILIES TO GIVE THE CONGRESSIONAL GOLD ARE VERY MODERN ONE MARINE TO GET A CONGRESSIONAL GOLD MEDAL TO. SO IF YOU KNOW ANYBODY WHO HAD SOMEONE IN THE MARINE CORPS BETWEEN 1942 AND 1949 AND ARE AFRICAN-AMERICAN AND THEY DIDN'T GET THE CONGRESSIONAL

[00:10:05]

GOLD MEDAL, WE NEED TO KNOW SO WE CAN MAKE THAT HAPPEN. >> OTHER THAN THAT, I CAN TELL YOU THERE IS A NAVY SHIP NAMED AFTER MY FOUR POINT MARINES OR U.S. AND THAT'S MY BOY.

THERE'S A ONE POINT EIGHT MILLION DOLLAR MONUMENT OUTSIDE THE GATE OF MY FOUR POINT WHICH IS CALLED CAMP JOHNSON UP IN JACKSONVILLE, NORTH CAROLINA RIGHT DOWN THE STREET FROM CAMP JUNE. CAMP JOHNSON IS THE ONLY MILITARY BASE THAT I KNOW OF NAMED AFTER AFTER AMERICA AND THE UNITED STATES. BUT OTHER THAN THAT.

WE THANK YOU FOR THIS AND WE LOOK FORWARD TO CARRYING ON THEIR LEGACY.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH. >> WONDERFUL HOPES. GLOVER.

YES. COME FORWARD, PLEASE. SORRY.

OH MY GOD. THEY STARTED PUNCHING ME IN THE BACK.

[7. ADMINISTRATOR'S REPORT]

THE NEXT ITEM ON OUR AGENDA IS OUR ADMINISTRATORS REPORT MR. GREENWAY.

>> THANK YOU, MR. CHAIRMAN. ONE QUICK ANNOUNCEMENT THAT I WANTED TO MAKE COUNTERFORCE AWARE OF AS PART MY REPORT THIS EVENING IS THAT SOME TIME AGO YOU ALL AUTHORIZED THE COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR TO NOTIFY THE SOUTH KOREAN DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION THAT WE WERE INTERESTED IN TAKING OVER THE RIDE AWAY OF JENKINS ROAD OFTEN TO 78 THAT GOES DOWN TO AN RV PARK AND A MARINA AND THINGS LIKE THAT. WE DID DO THAT.

WE'VE RECEIVED NOTICE TODAY FROM SOUTH CANDIOTTI THAT THEY HAVE VOTED TO GIVE UP OWNERSHIP THAT RIGHT AWAY SO THAT RIGHT AWAY IS NOW IN THE POSSESSION OF THE COUNTY AND WE'LL BE

COMPLETING THE PAPERWORK ON THAT IN THE NEAR FUTURE. >> AS IS CUSTOMARY OF COURSE ALWAYS RECOGNIZE A FEW EMPLOYEES AND I'M ALL ASKED BOBBY ANDERSON WHO WAS SUPPOSED TO BE HERE THIS EVENING TO COME FORWARD. THESE ARE ALL MAN GOT ON THE DALLAS COWBOYS MASCOT. YOU CAN'T BEAT THAT AND SAY LOOK, HERE YOU GO WITH FAIRNESS. I'M A DUDE. GOT TO IT.

I'M A DUKE SOX TONIGHT. SO ANYWAY, COME RIGHT HERE. STAND BESIDE ME IF YOU WILL.

SO BOBBY ANDERSON IS THE SUPERINTENDENT FOR US AND OUR PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT.

HE'S BEEN WITH US FOR 13 YEARS AS OF APRIL 28 THIS YEAR. HE'S RESPONSIBLE FOR ALL SORTS OF THINGS RANGING FROM MOVING FURNITURE TO MANAGE IN DEMOLITION PROJECTS TO MAINTAINING ALL THE BEAUFORT COUNTY BOAT LANDINGS. SO HE HAS A DIFFICULT JOB

BECAUSE HIS BOAT LANE CAN GET SQUARELY ON US SOMETIMES. >> BOBBY WAS HIRED HERE 14 YEARS AGO AS AN EQUIPMENT OPERATOR FOR THE STORMWATER DEPARTMENT WAS PROMOTED TO PIPE CREW LEADER WHICH PROMOTED AGAIN TO STORMWATER INFRASTRUCTURE FOREMAN.

AND THEN HE EXCELLED IN ALL THOSE POSITIONS AND WAS PROMOTED TO HIS CURRENT POSITION. GENERAL SUPPORT SUPERINTENDENT HE'S A VERY GOOD GUY.

I'VE TALKED TO HIM A FEW TIMES . ENJOY WORKING WITH HIM AND WE'LL PUT YOU ON THE SPOT HERE ALWAYS TURN THE MICROPHONE OVER TO FOLKS.

HE'S BEEN HERE WITH US ABOUT THREE YEARS IN THAT DEPARTMENT. HE CONDUCTS SURVEILLANCE

[00:15:04]

BUT IF YOU DO NOT UNDERSTAND THE OPERATIONS OF OUR MOSQUITO CONTROL DIVISION IS A VERY ELABORATE AND COMPLICATED PROCESS. THOSE FOLKS HAVE TO BE WELL-TRAINED IN WHAT THEY DO AND THEY ARE OUT THEY ARE TRYING TO PROTECT YOU ALL AS MUCH AS THEY CAN FROM MOSQUITOES. NO ONE THAT YOU KNOW, THEY'RE STILL GOING TO BE TIMES WHEN THEY GET OUT OF CONTROL. BUT THEY DO AN EXCELLENT JOB FOR DO AN ELABORATE VERY COMPLICATED LABORATORY PROCESS AND ALSO THE PROCESS THAT THEY FOLLOW SETTING UP THE CHEMICALS. CHARLES WAS BORN AND RAISED IN BEAUFORT AND HIS PRIMARY INTEREST IN MANY OF PEOPLE, MANY OF THE OTHER ADMINISTRATION EMPLOYEES CAN RELATE TO THIS. HIS PRIMARY INTEREST IS TO VISIT DISNEY WORLD EACH YEAR WITH HIS FAMILY. SO JARED AND SARAH, YOU KNOW YOUR YOUR SHARE IN THAT COMMONALITY WITH HIM. SO ANYWAY SO I WANT TO THANK HIM FOR HIS SERVICE TO THE COUNTY TO THE MOSQUITO CONTROL DEPARTMENT.

IN SHORT, CHILDREN ARE NOT IN AREAS THEY SHOULDN'T BE AND CAN ALSO BE SEEN HANDING OUT TROPHIES DURING THE LAST GAME OF THE SEASON. SOMETHING UNIQUE ABOUT MS. VALDES IS SHE CAME TO US TO HELP OUT IN THE AFTER SCHOOL SUMMER CAMP PROGRAM. SHE TRANSFERRED OVER TO ATHLETICS WHEN THOSE PROGRAMS WERE TURNED OVER TO LOVE HOUSE LEARNING ACADEMY.

SHE IS EXTREMELY DEDICATED EMPLOYEE THAT WILL STEP UP HELP AT ALL TIMES AND I CAN TELL BY ALL THOSE VARIOUS THINGS THAT YOU DO RIGHT THERE FOR PARKS AND RECREATION THAT THAT IS YOU'RE WILLING TO STEP UP AND I GREATLY APPRECIATE THAT.

TERRE HAUTE NOW FOR 51 YEARS ON MLK DRIVE. >> OH MY SHAKER.

I'VE BEEN LIVING HERE ON SET. NO. AND FOR 51 YEARS ON MARTIN LUTHER KING DRIVE I UNDERSTOOD THAT THEY WAS GETTING READY TO PUT SOME SIDEWALKS IN.

I HAVE NO PROBLEM WITH THAT. BUT MY PROBLEM WAS THAT FOR YEARS I'VE BEEN TRYING TO GET SOMEBODY TO CLEAN OUT THE DITCH AND HAVE A GOOD DRAINAGE IN THE AREA WHICH I DO.

I THINK I WENT SEVERAL YEARS AGO. MR. BELLAMY USED TO BE IN CHARGE. I TALKED TO HIM AND I TALKED TO A LOT OF PEOPLE COME OUT, THEY

LOOK AND THEY GO BACK. >> SO I JUST WANT TO SAY HE DIED DOING STONE AND RAIN AREA WATER COME ALL UP ALMOST ON MY BACK DOOR AND I THINK IT'S SO UNFAIR THAT, YOU KNOW, I PAY

[00:20:05]

TAX. >> I DO EVERYTHING THAT I ACTUALLY DO.

AND I CAN'T GET NO COOPERATION. A COUPLE OF WEEKS AGO I WENT AND PAID THIRTEEN HUNDRED DOLLARS TO GET SOMEBODY COMICALLY IN A DITCH ON MY SIDE.

BUT FROM THE ROAD FROM MLK DRIVE THE WATER COMES ON MY PROPERTY.

>> BUT I KIND OF GET NOBODY TO CLEAN THE DITCH AND I JUST WANT TO AX THAT SOMEBODY PAY ATTENTION TO THAT PARTICULAR AREA. NOW DOING THE HURRICANE OR STORMS COME EVEN AN EVER LETHAL BAPTIST CHURCH WHICH IS MY CHURCH.

IT GOT FLOODS OUT, WATER ALL UP ON ON FOOT IN THE DOOR. AND I WANT TO SAY PLEASE IF YOU CAN PLEASE ADDRESS THAT PROBLEM. I'VE BEEN ACTIVE FOR MANY YEARS . MANY YEARS NOT ONE, NOT TWO BUT MANY YEARS.

I HAD PEOPLE COME OUT LOOK, TURN AROUND, GO BACK. NO ACTION.

BUT WHEN ATTACKS COME, THEY ALL WANT THEIR MONEY AND IF I DON'T PAY THEM, THEY WANT TO TAKE MY

LAND. >> I WANT TO DO EVERYTHING I'VE GOT TO LOSE MADE THE AREA A CONCRETE AREA SO INNOCENT. OK, YOU GOT TO PAY BECAUSE YOU GOT THAT STORM WATER.

OK. THE REASON I'M HERE THIS AFTERNOON IS TO KEEP THIS IN FRONT OF THE COUNCIL. I THINK I'VE COMMUNICATED WITH THE COUNCIL OF FLYING BECAUSE THREE MINUTES IS NOT A WHOLE LOT OF TIME BUT I WANT TO MAKE THIS KNOWN THIS SEND IS RESPONSIBLE FOR EFFECTIVE COMMUNICATION. THE SENDER OF THE MESSAGE IS RESPONSIBLE. IT'S NOT THE RECEIVER IS THE SENDER.

OK, SO HUMAN COMMUNICATIONS COME OUT OF THE COUNTY. IT NEEDS TO BE EFFECTIVE IN NAFTA QUESTIONS THEN IT SHOULD BE ANSWERED BUT THE SENDER IS RESPONSIBLE FOR EFFECTIVE COMMUNICATION. OK. SO MANY QUESTIONS ARE HERE.

IS WHAT IS THE PROJECT TIMELINE? WHAT IS THE START DATE AND WHAT IS THE END DATE? CAN WE GET A COPY OF THE TIMELINE? NO. TIMELINES ARE NOT IN CONCRETE BUT IT'D BE NICE TO KNOW.

OK, OK. >> WE'RE INTO THE DESIGN PHASE RIGHT NOW AND ONE OF THE CONCERNS WE HAVE IS WE'RE TRYING TO BE PROACTIVE AND NOT SOMEONE TO BRING US A LOT DESIGN SIX MONTHS FROM NOW AND SAY HERE'S WHAT WE NEED IS DESIGN.

WE WOULD LIKE TO HAVE IDEAS INCORPORATED IN THE DESIGN. SO YOU DON'T HAVE TO GO BACK AND REDESIGN. OKAY. BECAUSE ONCE SOMETHING IS RESIGNED I'VE MANAGE ENGINEERS AND THEY ARE VERY RELUCTANT TO CHANGE SOMETHING AFTER THEY'VE RESIGNED DESIGN THAT WE'RE TRYING TO BE PROACTIVE. I WAS TOLD THAT THEY MUST FILE THE SOUTH CAROLINA DEPARTMENT OF REGULATION MANUAL. OK, SO WE HAVE READ THE MANUAL TO A CERTAIN DEGREE AND THIS DESIGN IS NOT IN THE MANUAL. OK, I CAN'T FIND A COPY OF THIS DESIGN AND MEN SO OTHER WORDS SO THERE IS FLEXIBILITY IN DESIGNING THE SIDEWALKS AROUND THE TREES. OKAY. OTHER CONCERN PEN CENTER AND THAT HAS WE'VE HAD OFFLINE MEETING ON THAT IS DATA DESIGNATED AS A HISTORIC DISTRICT. THE REMOVING OF TREES COULD AFFECT THAT COULD AFFECT THAT AND A DRAINAGE PROBLEM THAT'S ALREADY BEEN TALKED ABOUT. WE ARE CONCERNED ABOUT THAT.

ALSO THE STREET IS NAMED AFTER DR. MARTIN LUTHER KING WHO TOOK CARE TO DISADVANTAGE AND SOME OF THE FOLKS WHO ARE MANAGING THIS STUFF IS IN 1962. THEY WOULD NOT HAVE OPPORTUNITIES THEY HAVE TODAY BECAUSE THEY WOULD JUST WILL NOT BE GIVEN BE GIVEN BUT TODAY BECAUSE OF THE WORK, DR. KING, AS IRONIC THAT DO NOT HAVE OPPORTUNITY TO PAY BACK.

[01:12:48]

[01:12:56]

THEN I CAN'T SUPPORT THIS. >> MR. LAWSON VOTING AGAINST THIS.

>> IT'S NOT THAT I DON'T THINK THE BLACK CHAMBER DOES A GOOD JOB BUT THERE ARE OTHER THINGS

OUT THERE THAT WE ARE POSED WARDS OF THE COUNTY IS MONEY. >> AND RIGHT NOW THAT'S SOMETHING THAT WE NEED TO MAKE SURE THAT WE'RE DOING THE RIGHT THING SO I CAN ANSWER QUESTIONS ABOUT THE DECISIONS I'VE MADE AND AGAIN THERE'S THERE'S A LITANY OF THINGS THAT THAT'S IN THE PUBLIC DOMAIN RIGHT NOW THAT LEADS ME TO BELIEVE THAT WE NEED TO GET MORE INFORMATION, FIND OUT MORE BEFORE WE CAN ACTUALLY MAKE THIS DECISION.

>> MR. SOMERVILLE, YOUR NEXT. THANK YOU, MR. CHAIRMAN. I'LL BE BRIEF.

THERE ARE A NUMBER OF ISSUES OUTSTANDING REGARDING THE BLACK CHAMBER THAT I DON'T KNOW ARE THERE GOING TO BE RESOLVED. BUT I DO KNOW THAT THAT THE BLACK CHAMBER WAS DOUBLE BILLING. THEY WERE BILLING US AND BILLING THE CITY OVER THE SAME THINGS. AND THERE MAY BE OTHER THINGS SPECIFICALLY BUT THAT IS SPECIFIC. AND UNTIL THAT MATTER IS RESOLVED, I CAN'T EVEN CONSIDER GIVING THEM MONEY. JUST FLEW ON. THANK YOU, MR. CHAIRMAN.

I'M I'M CONCERNED THAT THIS IS AN AREA AND AT THIS AD MAY BE CONSTRUED AS AN ISSUE OF FAIRNESS AND WE NEED TO TREAT EVERYBODY THE SAME. AND REGARDLESS, YOU KNOW, UNLESS THERE ARE SOME SOME SOME FOUND BASIS, SOME LEGAL JUSTIFICATION FOR TREATING THEM EACH OF THE DEMOS DIFFERENTLY, THEN WE NEED TO TREAT THE BLACK CHAMBER EXACTLY AS WE TREAT

[01:15:04]

ANY OTHER COMMENTS THAT MR. JUST A CLARIFICATION. I DON'T BELIEVE THAT THE BLACK CHAMBER IS A DEMO. I DON'T BELIEVE IT EVER WAS. SOMEBODY CAN CORRECT ME ON THAT BUT I DON'T BELIEVE IT IS OR WHATEVER WAS A DEMO. WELL, I'LL CORRECT YOU, SIR.

IT IS A DEMO THERE. THERE ARE DESIGNATED MARKETING ORGANIZATIONS IN OUR ORDINANCES AND THEY RECEIVE FIFTY THOUSAND DOLLARS AND THE THE THE BEAUFORT VB RECEIVES ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY FIVE AND THE HILTON HEAD REGIONAL CHAMBER NOTHING SEEMS OUT THERE LOOKING ON THE FLOOR THEY ARE OK. ANY OTHER COMMENTS BEFORE WE VOTE? OK. LET US CONDUCT OUR BUSINESS PLEASE.

OK. MR. GLOVER YOU MADE THE MOTION FOR THE BLACK CHAMBER AS A DEMO TO RECEIVE 50 THOUSAND DOLLARS IN FUNDS. HOW DO YOU VOTE YES, MR. RODMAN

. >> YOU WERE NEXT VOTE YES. >> BUT I REMIND YOU THE MOTION ALSO VOTED THAT WE WOULD CHANNEL FUNDS THROUGH THAT COUNTY.

THAT'S BEEN THE WAY WE'VE BEEN DOING IT IF NOT THE 50 THE DEAL.

OK. NOW THE WAY I'M INTERPRETING THE MOTION AND INTERACT IF I'M WRONG IS THAT WE OUGHT TO GIVE THEM FIFTY THOUSAND FIFTY THOUSAND DOLLAR PAYMENT WITHOUT ANY QUESTION AND THEN ANYTHING ELSE THEY HAVE SUBMITTED A MOTION MOTION INCLUDE GOING THROUGH ALL PROCUREMENT. BUT HOW DOES THAT MEAN THEY SEE MANY INVOICES TO ACCESS TO 50? YES. OK. THANK YOU, MR. CUNNINGHAM.

NOW MR. DAWSON. YES, MR. FLEMING. YES.

MR. HARVEY SHINE. NOW MISS HOWARD. NO, MR. LAWSON.

HAS WAS JUST READ. IF THEY'RE GOING THROUGH BRINGING INVOICES TO US, I WILL VOTE YES FOR THAT. MR MCGOWAN? YES.

MR. SOMERVILLE. NO. SIX JUROR SAYS YES.

THE MOTION CARRIES SEVEN YES FOR NO. OK.

SETTING FEES. >> WE DISCUSSED THE LAST AT THE LAST COUNCIL MEETING.

NO, NO IS AGREED. DID YOU PRESS THAT LITTLE BUTTON REAL PRESS SPEAK LOUDER RIGHT NOW. IS THAT FAIR TO SAY? I THINK IT'S.

I CAN'T HEAR WHAT HE'S SAYING. SIR. OKAY.

PLEASE BE MORE CLEAR. DO YOU MEAN COMES TO A MICROPHONE?

THAT MOTION WAS AN OVERSIGHT BY STAFF. >> WE ARE LOOKING FOR THAT COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR TO BE REMOVED FROM THE AMENDED LANGUAGE AND SIMPLY REPLACED WITH COUNTY COUNCIL WILL BE REFERRING BACK TO THE ORIGINAL LANGUAGE.

LAST MEETING. CORRECT. >> ALL RIGHT.

THE FACT THAT OUR PACKAGE IS INCORRECT IS SOMETHING WE NEED TO HOLD THE ADMINISTRATOR ACCOUNTABLE FOR.

MR. GALLON MAKES THE MOTION MR. CUNNINGHAM MAKES THE SECOND. ANY DISCUSSION? I SEE NO. YES, MR. RODMAN. THIS FINISHED BY 8:00.

YES, YOU WILL. I THINK THERE'S A BETTER WAY TO APPROACH THE SOUND.

WE TRY A LOVELY VOICE. I THINK THERE'S A BIT BETTER WAY TO APPROACH THIS.

THE THE LAND PLANNING EXERCISE WHICH CAME WITH THE TWENTY FOUR TWENTY SIX RECOMMENDATIONS I THINK HAS BEEN FRUITFUL AND IF YOU LOOK THROUGH THOSE I KNOW I'VE MENTIONED THEM IN THE PAST BUT YOU KNOW THE VAST MAJORITY OF ARE ONES THAT DIETY IN THE TOWN AND I THINK OURSELVES CAN BE IN AGREEMENT IN THERE'S TWO OR THREE THAT HAVE BEEN REJECTED FOR VARIOUS FOR GOOD REASONS WHICH ONE HAVE AS SEPARATING THE BRIDGES WHICH WE DID TALK ABOUT AND AGREED NOT TO DO. THERE'S A COUPLE OF ITEMS THAT FALL OUTSIDE THE SCOPE OF WHAT DIETY CAN DO AND THERE'S A COUPLE OF THEM THAT YOU KNOW ARE WORTHY OF SOME CONSIDERATION AND SOME OF MAYBE EVEN ONES THAT REQUIRE A LITTLE BIT OF MONEY AND THE AND WE GONNA HAVE SOME SURPLUSES LEFT OVER FROM THE REFERENDUM. HOWEVER THIS CAME TO US KIND OF OUT OF THE BLUE AND WE REALLY AS A COUNCIL HAVE NOT SPENT ANY REAL TIME LOOKING AT THE 278 QUARTER WHAT THE RECOMMENDATIONS ARE AND SO ON. AND I THINK A LOT OF OUR CONVERSATION UP TO NOW HAS BEEN THAT AT SOME POINT IN TIME WE WOULD HAVE A JOINT MEETING WITH THE TOWN IN ORDER TO GO FORWARD TOGETHER TO S C D O T SO I THINK THE WAY THIS IS WRITTEN AND KIND OF COMES DOWN IT KIND OF SEPARATES US FROM THE TOWN AND I THINK THE BETTER APPROACH WOULD BE FOR US TO POSTPONE THIS FOR FOR ONE MEETING AND THEN SEE DURING THAT TIME IF WE CAN'T HAVE A JOINT RESOLUTION FROM BOTH THE TOWN AND THE COUNTY WHICH I THINK WOULD BE BETTER AS FAR AS WHAT WE SEND TO D O T. AND I THINK WOULD BE GO A LONG WAY AND IN SMOOTHING RELATIONS SHIPS WITH D O T SO I'M GOING TO MAKE A MOTION MR. CHAIRMAN THAT THAT WE KNOW THIS IS A GOOD MOTION THAT WE POSTPONE THIS FOR ONE MEETING AND ASK THE STAFF TO COME BACK WITH A POSSIBLE JOINT RESOLUTION WITH THE TOWN INCORPORATING THE SAME FEATURES STIMULUS IN IT. OKAY MR. ROBINSON MAKES THE MOTION MR. GLOVER MAKES THE SECOND WE MAKE SURE THAT YOU ARE SAYING THE CORRECT THING. OKAY.

OKAY. YOU WANT TO POSTPONE IT FOR ONE MEETING AND THAT WILL BE THE NEXT COUNTY MEETING IN APRIL. CORRECT. OKAY.

ANY COMMENTS FROM ANYONE ELSE? MR. HER VERSION. THANK YOU, MR. CHAIRMAN.

QUESTION FOR GREENWAY WHERE ARE WE WITH GETTING A JOINT MEETING WITH THE TOWN? ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU. AND YOU ALL MAKE MOTIONS TO DELAY ONE MEETING. I CAN'T I'VE GOT TO MOVE THIS PROJECT AT SOME POINT YOU GUYS SAY, YOU KNOW, MOVE THE PROJECT FORWARD. WE'RE COMING UP ON ANOTHER REFERENDUM. YOU GUYS HAVEN'T DONE ANYTHING WITH THE CURRENT REFERENDUM.

I BRING STUFF TO YOU ALL TO TRY TO MOVE THINGS FORWARD AND YOU GUYS SAY DELAY IT FOR ANOTHER MEETING UNTIL WE GET A CHANCE FOR THE COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR TO WORK WITH THE TOWN MANAGER.

YOU ALL JUST HAD A LONG DISCUSSION ABOUT HOW LONG IT IS.

TAKE HIM FOR THE TOWNS TO RESPOND TO ANYTHING I WANT TO DO SO I'M ASKING YOU ALL TO

[01:35:03]

THE RESOLUTION THAT YOU ARE CONSIDERING TIES THE TOWN TO TAKE ACTION WITHIN 30 DAYS THIS RESOLUTION THAT YOU'RE ADOPT IN THE NIGHT GOES VOID. SO THE RESOLUTION SAYS THAT THEY HAVE TO DO CERTAIN THINGS WITHIN 30 DAYS OR THIS GOES VOID.

SO WE'VE GOT TO TAKE SOME ACTION TO FORCE SOME ADDITIONAL ACTION.

MAY I FINISH MY COMMENT? YES, SIR. THANK YOU, MR. ROD.

RIGHT. ONE MILLION PERCENT AGREE WITH THE SENTIMENT.

I WOULD LOVE TO HAVE HAD A MEETING WITH THE TOWN. I'VE BEEN ASKING FOR THAT FOR MONTHS. BUT UNFORTUNATELY JUST DON'T THINK THAT THIS IS REALLY GOING TO GET US ANYWHERE. SO RELUCTANTLY I'M GOING TO VOTE NO BUT I TOTALLY APPRECIATE THE SENTIMENT ON HE. ANY OTHER COMMENTS TO HIM AND DELIVER? YES. UM, LET ME MAKE IT CLEAR I AM. I UNDERSTAND THE NATURE OF THE MOTION TO MOVE IT FORWARD YET SOME ACTION EVEN IF I SUPPORTED THE MOTION AS WRITTEN 30 DAYS

IS A PROBLEM FOR ME AND I MUST CONTINUE. >> WHY OUT OF THE 26 QUESTIONS OR CONCERN THAT WAS PUT BEFORE THEM BY CONSULTING SEVERAL LAWS IN THE COMMUNITY AND I DON'T HAVE A GOOD FEELING RIGHT NOW ABOUT WHETHER WE ARE ADDRESSING THEIR CONCERNS.

AND THAT'S ONE OF THE REASON I'VE BEEN BASICALLY CHAMPION THIS THIS THIS.

MOVING THIS FORWARD. BUT I WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT THE STONEY COMMUNITY AND HEAR FROM THE STONEY COMMUNITY AND THEIR REPRESENTATIVE THAT THEY ARE SATISFIED WITH WHAT IS BEING PROPOSED BY D OR T. FOR AN EXAMPLE THEY'RE TALKING A SIX LANE PEOPLE USE PLANNING COMMUNITY AND YOU GOT PEOPLE ON FAMILIES ON BOTH SIDES. NOW I HAVE TO TRAVERSE OVER THAT HIGHWAY. ARE THEY GONNA PUT SOMETHING IN THERE SO THERE IS A LEGITIMATE CROSS LANE. THEY GOT IT AT THE 2 INTERSECTION SPANISH WELLS AND SQUIRE. BUT THAT'S THE THAT'S LEASED TO A MILE AND A HALF.

OH, I DON'T KNOW. THAT'S A GOOD DISTANCE FOR AN ELDERLY PERSON TO WALK AND TRY . OR EVEN A YOUNG PERSON BECAUSE THEY'RE GOING TO TRY TO JET OVER AND TRY TO GET ACROSS THE ROAD BECAUSE IT'S QUICKLY GO STRAIGHT THEN THEY GO UP DUE TO THE TRAFFIC. I MEAN THE CROSSING LICENSE. SO THOSE ARE THE CONCERNS THAT I HAVE AND DEONTE IS ADDRESSING IT. AND I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT THE STONEY COMMUNITY IS SATISFIED AND THE SAFETY IN THE STONEY COMMUNITY IS ADDRESSED.

THAT'S IT. LET ME LET ME ADDRESS THOSE FOR YOU.

>> WHAT YOU ALL ARE DOING THIS EVENING IS CONSIDERING A RESOLUTION TO SUPPORT AN INITIATIVE THAT THE TOWN OF HILTON HEAD ISLAND UNDERTOOK ON BEHALF OF EVERYONE THAT LEO WAS ALONG THAT CORRIDOR AND FOR THE TOWN THERE WERE 20 SIX RECOMMENDATIONS.

MANY OF THOSE RECOMMENDATIONS THAT COUNTY AND DOTY AGREED TO PUT IN PLACE THE TOWN OF HILTON HEAD ISLAND. WE'VE WE'VE TOLD THE TOWN OF HILTON HEAD ISLAND AND WE WROTE A LETTER TO THEM AND SAID WE AGREE WITH MANY OF THESE COMMENTS AND WE WILL DO THESE THINGS. THE MAYOR AND THE TOWN MANAGER SAID THAT WASN'T GOOD ENOUGH FOR THEM. THEY WANTED YOU ALL TO PASS A RESOLUTION AND THAT'S WHAT THIS IS. BUT WE'RE NOT. I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND TO YOU TO PASS THIS RESOLUTION UNLESS YOU PUT A TIMEFRAME ON IT FOR THE TOWN TO DO THREE TO THREE THINGS ONE YEAR OF MUNICIPAL CONSENT ON THE CORRIDOR TO PROVIDE THE RIGHT AWAY FOR MANY OF THE RECOMMENDATIONS IN THE M.K. S.K. STUDY THAT THE TOWN OF HILTON HEAD ISLAND INITIATED. AND THE THIRD IS TWO TO FIND THE FUNDING FOR ANY THING THAT THESE RECOMMENDATIONS ARE GOING TO COST IN EXCESS OF THE AMOUNT OF MONEY THAT THE COUNTY AND THE D.A. HAS ALREADY PUT UP EITHER IN THE FORM OF SALES TAX IMPACT FEES, INFRASTRUCTURE BANK MONEY OR THE OUTRIGHT COMMITMENT OF DOJ T D O T AND THE COUNTY HAVE MADE TREMENDOUS COMMITMENTS TO WORK IN AN ATTEMPT TO WORK WITH THE TOWN HILTON HEAD ISLAND.

[01:40:06]

THAT'S WHY THIS RESOLUTION IS ON THIS AGENDA TONIGHT BECAUSE THE MAYOR AND THE TOWN MANAGER IN TOWN, THE HILTON HEAD ISLAND REP REQUESTED THAT WE ADOPT THIS RESOLUTION BY YOU ALL SO THAT COUNCIL COULD GO ON RECORD AS SAYING YEAH, WE SUPPORT THE RECOMMENDATIONS OF K.S. K. THAT HAVE BEEN AGREED TO BUT WE ARE NOT WE DON'T NEED TO PROVIDE ANY MORE FUNDING.

WE DON'T NEED TO BUY THE RIGHT AWAY AND WE NEED MUNICIPAL CONSENT AND WE NEED TO PUT A TIMEFRAME ON THAT SO THAT THEY CAN'T DRAG THIS OUT LIKE MEETING THE MOST PALACES DOING

WITH THE IMPACT FEE. >> I UNDERSTAND THE I UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU JUST SAID.

THE QUESTION I HAVE IN THE STONEY COMMUNITY ARE THEY SATISFIED WITH THE TOWN COUNCIL AT THIS TIME AND MOVING FORWARD? I DON'T I DON'T KNOW BUT I DON'T THINK THAT'S I DON'T THINK THAT'S SOMETHING THAT YOU ALL NEED TO WORRY ABOUT THIS EVENING BECAUSE THIS IS AN ISSUE TO SUPPORT A STUDY THAT THE TOWN UNDERTOOK THAT CAME WITH ADDITIONAL RECOMMENDATIONS. WE DO THIS.

THAT'S NOT TO SAY WE CAN'T DO OTHER THINGS DOWN THE ROAD TO ADDRESS ADDITIONAL CONCERNS, BUT I'M TRYING TO DO THIS SO THAT I CAN GET THIS MUNICIPAL CONSENT AND ALL OF THESE OTHER THINGS DEALT WITH SO THAT I CAN TURN THIS NEPA APPLICATION IN SO THAT WE CAN GET THE FINDINGS OF NO SIGNIFICANT IMPACT. THE LONGER WE DELAY THAT THE LONGER IT TAKES US TO GET THE PROJECT UNDERWAY. BEFORE WE HAVE ANY FURTHER DISCUSSION, UNFORTUNATELY I NEED A MOTION TO EXTEND THE MEETING BEYOND 8 P.M. MOTION TO EXTEND MR. OF ANYBODY OPPOSED YOUR WORK. OK. IT PASSES UNANIMOUSLY WITHOUT OBJECTION. OK. ARE THERE ANY OTHER COMMENTS BEFORE WE VOTE MR. RODMAN? CAN YOU SAY YOU WERE GOING TO BE BRIEF? WELL, NOW I GOT A PICTURE OF IT IF I WERE OUT. WE'RE NOT GOING TO BE A MUCH LONGER. YEAH, I THINK I THINK WE KNOW WHERE WE ARE IS.

WE'VE BEEN AT THIS FOR THREE AND A HALF YEARS AND THIS IS REALLY THE FIRST TIME THAT ANYTHING HAS COME TO OUR COUNCIL ON 278 THAT I'M AWARE OF .

AND IT COMES OFF AS KIND OF HEAVY HANDED AS TO SAY ON A C ON AN AGENDA ON A FRIDAY TO SAY HERE'S A RESOLUTION THAT WE WANT. I AGREE WITH WHERE YOU'RE TRYING TO GO BUT I THINK WE'RE BETTER OFF TO GET A JOINT RESOLUTION THAT WE BOTH CAN AGREE TO AND I THINK WE CAN DO IT FAIRLY QUICKLY AND IF WE CAN'T THEN WE CAN COME BACK TO THIS. BUT I DON'T SEE ANYTHING LOST. I SEE A LOT TO BE GAINED BY HAVING A MORE FRIENDLY APPROACH WITH THEM AS OPPOSED TO JUST SAYING THIS IS WHAT WE IS.

THE COUNTY WHERE I GOT I GOT CALLS FROM TWO COUNCIL MEMBERS AND ON TOP OF THAT NOW HILTON AND THEY SAID WHAT'S THIS ALL ABOUT? YOU KNOW, THIS IS NOT SOMETHING THAT CAME OUT OF THEIR COUNCIL WHERE WE'RE DOING SOMETHING THAT THEIR LEADERSHIP REQUESTED. THIS THE MAYOR AND THE TOWN MANAGER RIGHT.

THAT IS EXACTLY WHERE THEY MAY HAVE BEEN. THEY TOOK THEY MAY HAVE AN INTERNAL PROBLEM IF THEY'RE WELL OR THEY MAY HAVE. THE BIGGEST PROBLEM.

YEAH. THREE AND HERE'S THE BIG PROBLEM ANYWAY.

TWO WEEKS WON'T HURT US SO. BUT DO WHAT YOU WANT. YEAH.

OK. ON THE MOTION TO POSTPONE FOR ONE MEETING MR. RODMAN YOU MADE THE MOTION YOU GET TO VOTE FIRST. YES MR. GLOVER.

THAT'S THE CHAIRMAN TO THE MEMBERS OF THE COUNCIL. MY NAME IS RAVEN KENNETH HODGES. I JUST WANT TO COMMEND YOU NOT ONLY ON THE WORK THAT YOU'RE DOING BUT ON YOUR WILLINGNESS TO BRING THE COUNTY COUNCIL MEETING TO THE COMMUNITY.

WE REALIZE THAT THIS MAY BE CHALLENGING FOR YOU LOGISTICALLY TO COME INTO A COMMUNITY, BUT I THINK THIS WAS QUITE HELPFUL AND FROM THE AUDIENCE THAT WE SEE THE NIGHT WE SEE THAT THE PUBLIC IS RESPONDING POSITIVELY. WE REALIZE IT MAY NOT BE SOMETHING THAT YOU WILL BE ABLE TO CONTINUE BUT WE WANT TO THANK YOU FOR COMING TO THE

COMMUNITY TONIGHT. >> THANK YOU, SIR. WE WE ENJOY COMING OUT TO SEE EVERYONE. YOU SEE HOW WE DON'T ALWAYS AGREE WITH EVERYTHING.

AND WE GOT THAT FEELING. ANYBODY ELSE? YES, SIR.

PLEASE COME FORWARD. GOTTA GO. GOOD EVENING, EVERYONE.

MY NAME IS OUT GEORGE ROBINSON. I JUST WANTED TO CONCUR WITH ALL WHAT MR. GREEN SAID ABOUT THE REC CENTER IN OUR COMMUNITY AND ALSO ALONG WITH THAT I WAS GONNA BRING UP THE DRAINAGE PROBLEM. I SAW EVERYONE WAS TALKING ABOUT THE MOSQUITO CONTROL AND THE TOUGH JOB THAT THEY DO. BUT WE GET RID OF THIS LOT OF THIS WATER.

IT WILL HELP SOLVE A LOT OF THAT PROBLEM WITH THE MOSQUITOES.

AND ALSO WHILE YOU HAVE A WORKING RELATIONSHIP WITH BEFORE DESPERATE WATER.

SO WITH ALREADY I'VE CALLED THE ENGINEERS DEPARTMENT ON SEVERAL TIMES BECAUSE THE FIRE HYDRANTS IN OUR COMMUNITY HERE ON ST. HELENA ISLAND, HALF OF THEM WERE HIDDEN.

WHEN I GO FOR MY MORNING RUN OR MORNING WALK AND I'LL LOOK AND I'LL SEE A FIRE HYDRANT HERE AND THERE AND IT JUST MAKES IT TOUGHER FOR OUR FIREFIGHTERS. I'M A FIREFIGHTER ALSO TO LOCATE AND CONNECTED THESE HYDRANTS WHEN IF I'M NOT MISTAKEN THAT IS BEAUFORT JASPER. WHAT IS IT WITH AUTISM THAT IS THEIR DOMAIN TO TAKE CARE OF THOSE HYDRANTS. AND I HAVEN'T SEEN I'VE SEEN HYDRANTS THAT ARE BENT WHERE YOU CAN'T OPEN IT UP IF THERE'S A FIRE IN THE COMMUNITY. SO THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED.

THANK YOU. THANK YOU, MR. GREEN. BEFORE YOU LEAVE TONIGHT MR. GREEN. MR. GREEN BEFORE YOU LEAVE TONIGHT, I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE I HAVE YOUR PHONE NUMBER CORRECTLY SO SOMEONE CAN CONTACT YOU ABOUT YOUR CONCERNS

AND I HAVE. >> IT LOOKS LIKE YOU GOT MY NUMBER.

[Additional Item]

JUST EVERYONE ISN'T AWARE IS AWARE. LAST COUNTY COUNCIL MEETING WE ANNOUNCED THAT WE ARE DOING AN ASSESSMENT OF ALL OF OUR REC CENTERS AND ALL OF YOU FOR COUNTY SO THAT IS UNDERWAY. IT WILL TAKE SOMEWHERE BETWEEN SIX TO SEVEN MONTHS BUT THEY ARE ASSESSING EVERY REC CENTER ALL IMBUE FOR COUNTY SO WE CAN SEE EXACTLY WHAT NEEDS TO BE DONE AND NOT JUST HEAR ONE THING FROM AN EMAIL HERE AND THERE BUT HAVE AN ACTUAL PHYSICAL BASIS OF WHAT NEEDS TO BE DONE IN EVERY LOCATION. THANK YOU.

[Additional Item]

[01:50:05]

APRIL 23 FROM 10:00 TO 1:00 O'CLOCK. THANK YOU TO CHAIRMAN PINSENT.

[CITIZEN COMMENTS (Part 3 of 3)]

YES. >> YES, SIR. HIMSELF WILLIAM SMITH TO US LIKE I SAID, CAN WE STOP IN TIME TO GET HIM KEEP GOING. GOOD.

OKAY. YEAH. SO WHAT? WELL, FIRST I'D LIKE TO SAY THAT I I'M DISAPPOINTED THAT WE HAD TO CONTRACT A KEEP GOING.

>> WE CAN HEAR YOU AS WE GET WITHIN THE COUNTY. I MEAN JUST IF WE CAN GET THE PR DEPARTMENT YOU KNOW I ALLOW THE DEPARTMENT TO DO THAT. IT'S JUST IT'S BEING TESTED TO CONTRACT SOMEBODY OUT. I THOUGHT THAT WAS THAT WAS A WASTE OF TAXPAYERS MONEY.

HI EVER. I WASN'T THERE. I WAS A PART OF BECOME A COMPANY. BUT I BELIEVE THAT WE HAVE ENOUGH PEOPLE IN-HOUSE STARTING WITH SOMEONE IN THE WORK THAT WE ARE CONTRACTED OUT OUTSIDE OF DALLAS.

AND YOU KNOW WHAT'S GOING BECAUSE IT'S NOT TAXPAYERS MONEY.

BUT ALONG WITH THAT THAT BEING THE WAY HOW HE WAS PROJECTED AND THE PEOPLE PERSON WAS DOING IT, IT SEEMED AS THOUGH IT WAS A SHAFT TO JUST SOMETHING TO WHY THAT DIDN'T WORK.

NO. NOT LONG AGO THE RIVER RIVERSIDE COUNTY TASK FORCE IMMIGRATION JUST REOPENED AGREES WITH YOU. AND THAT TASK FORCE CAUGHT FOR LONG STANDING FROM THE START. SO THEY SOLD WHAT HAPPENED IS ALSO SOME AMERICAN KIDS MONEY AS SHOULD BE FUNNY. YES, IT'S GETTING SUFFICIENT MONEY FOR THESE THE FAMILY OF THE IDEA OF THESE SORT OF BIZARRE CLASSIC STUFF ALL COMES FACILITIES AND SO ON TO ENTITLEMENT IS WHAT I'M SAYING THAT I BELIEVE THAT THERE WAS GOING TO REASON WHY THIS MOVIE WAS IT WAS HARD TO GET IN FRONT OF THE CONVENTION TO SAY YOU REALLY WAS COMING BECAUSE NOT DOLLAR MY MONEY BEHIND IT. SEE HOW THAT WAS FORMED BECAUSE OF THE DISCONTINUITY COMMUNITY, THE GLORIA CLASS BECAUSE WE'VE HAD TO DO WITH THE DEA WITH A SIMPLE AMOUNT WE CLOSE TO THAT FOCUS GROUP WHATEVER. I MISSED OUT BECAUSE I WAS TRYING TO GET YOU ONE OF THEM ONE OF THE SENATORS AND WHEN IT WAS CHECKED DOWN AND THEY ABSOLUTELY NOT SO IF THEY SAID WISHIN EVERYONE DOWN AND WE HAVE KNOWN YOU SINCE OPENING ONE.

MY QUESTION IS WHAT DO WE DO WITH THE TAXPAYERS MONEY ONE IN TWO.

HOW HOW LONG SPENDING I GO WITH MY LAWFUL GOT? ALSO I WAS TOLD THAT ONE OF THE YOUNGER THAT BEAT ME KIND OF ADMINISTRATIVE CREATIVE TEAM TO DECIDE HOW THEY WERE GOING SPEND THAT MONEY. I KNOW I KNOW I'M ACTUALLY FOR YOU SHOULD YOU GO AND LOOK AND SEE HOW THE TEAM SHOULD PUT TOGETHER TO SPEND THAT MONEY BECAUSE HOW WOULD YOU MEET THEM? I DON'T BELIEVE THAT THAT'S THE GOOD WORK WE HAVE DOING BECAUSE THERE'S NO ONE IN THE COMMUNITY, IS THERE? JUST COMING OUT YOU WILL BE ONE OF THE COMMUNITY. IF YOU IF YOU GO AND TAKE THAT BACK TO THE TWO GOVERNMENTS THAT WE WENT INTO APATHY GOT WITH A DEGREE THAT WAS THAT'S NOT ACTUALLY.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR COMMENTS. OKATIE BECAUSE I WILL SAY THIS. I HOPE THAT WE ARE GOING TO HELP ALL WE CAN WITH YOU TAKE YOU TAKE WHAT WHAT WAS SAID IN THOSE MEETINGS, SUSAN BECAUSE I WANT TO SELL REFERRALS THIS WEEK BECAUSE AT SOME POINT TIME COMCAST WILL HAVE TO TAKE THAT TAKE A SERIOUS LOOK AT WHAT WE'RE DOING BECAUSE THEY ARE NOT ENOUGH FOR THESE KIDS.

I DON'T MIND THEM WORKSHOP SO I SELF-ASSESSMENT THE MR. CHAIRMAN, I BELIEVE THAT GENTLEMAN'S TIME HAS EXPIRED AND WE NEED TO CLOSE THIS MEETING OUT.

SIR, I'M SORRY, MR. SMITH, BUT YOUR TIME HAS EXPIRED. THANK YOU.

SO WHAT TIME ARE WE UP WITH, SIR? STOCKS AND BONDS.

[01:55:01]

BECAUSE LIKE GOOGLE IMPACT FEE ON MY PHONE I SEE THREE MILLION BLUFFTON HILTON TODAY I SEE IT LIKE FIFTY FIVE DOLLARS AND SOMEONE ELSE PUTS A WHOLE THE BOTTOM OF THE TOTEM POLE BUT I KNOW WE PAY TAXES ONCE A YEAR LIKE A LANDSLIDE.

IF YOU DON'T PAY OUR TAXES WE HAVE TO MOVE OFF OUR PROPERTY. SO I JUST REALLY WANT TO KNOW WHAT ARE WE DOING WITH THE IMPACTED AND HOW WE ALL GO ABOUT SPLITTING THIS UP EQUALLY FAIRLY? YOU KNOW, THAT'S ALL I WANT TO KNOW BECAUSE I MEAN I HEARD SOMEONE IMPACT THE IMPACT AND I WANT TO GIVE THIS MONEY BACK, FIX OUR COMMUNITY BUT THEN LET I DON'T GET IT BACK. WE NEED IT. THEY NEED TO BE MADE RIGHT NOW.

WE NEED A JAIL. THAT'S A THAT'S A COMPLICATED ANSWER.

AND IF YOU'LL GIVE ME A CALL, I'LL BE GLAD I'LL BE GLAD TO WALK YOU THROUGH IT.

I'LL GIVE YOU MY I'VE GOT IT. OK. ALL.

WHY WOULD YOU NEED A VIEW SURVEY EVERY COME AND DO THAT? WHEN YOU DO IT IN THE OFFICE OF A SURVEYOR OR IN YOUR OFFICE OR PHYSICAL DESTROY AND CHECK IT OUT. I COULD ASK YOU THAT BUT SEE ME AFTER ME I'LL GET YOUR PHONE NUMBER. I'LL CALL AND EXPLAIN THAT TO YOU AS WELL.

YOU DON'T. THAT SURVEY DID TO SURVEY THE PROPERTY BUT YOU DO HAVE TO HAVE A DRAWING THAT STRONG THE SCALE THAT SHOWS THE BUILDING DIMENSIONS AND ITS RELATIONSHIP TO THE PROPERTY LINE SO THAT STAFF CAN VERIFY THAT IT'S MEETING THE SETBACKS AND THE OTHER REQUIRED DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS. BUT I'LL GIVE YOU MY CARD HERE IN A FEW MINUTES AND YOU CAN CALL ME AND I'LL WALK YOU THROUGH ALL OF THAT.
