[00:00:02]

ALFRED HERE MAYOR HERE I'LL SIR THANK YOU IF YOU'LL JOIN ME IN STANDING AND SAYING THE PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE PLEDGE ALLEGIANCE THE WHY I SAY AND THIS IS I MENTIONED YOUR GUIDE TRIAL THE DAY WORKSHOP IS THE NEXT STEP ON THE PROCESS FOR IMPROVING PARKS AND RECREATION ON OUR ISLAND THAT BEGAN WITH PARKS AND RECREATION MASTER PLAN AND WILL RESULT WITH SOME NEW AND SOME IMPROVED FACILITIES TODAY .

WE HAVE THE TOWN PROJECT MANAGERS AND CONSULTANTS HERE TO SHARE THE CURRENT FOR FIVE PARKS TOWN COUNCIL WILL BE ASKED TO PROVIDE INPUT TO BE INCORPORATED INTO FINAL MASTER PLANS. JENNIFER RAE CAPITAL PROGRAM MANAGER IS HERE TO KICK OFF TODAY'S DISCUSSION THANK YOU MAYOR THANK YOU TOWN COUNCIL TOWN MANAGER STAFF AND THE COMMUNITY FOR ALLOWING US BE HERE TODAY FOR THIS EXCITING OPPORTUNITY TO SHARE THESE FIVE PARKS I HOPE WE CAN TELL BY THE NUMBER OF PEOPLE IN THE ROOM HOW IMPORTANT PARKS AND RECREATION ARE TO OUR COMMUNITY AND HOPEFULLY BY THE END OF THIS WE FIND THAT THEY'RE NOT POLARIZING BUT THEY ACTUALLY BRING PEOPLE TOGETHER. PARKS SO MANY BENEFITS BOTH FOR INDIVIDUALS A COMMUNITY THEY BESIDES JUST THE OBVIOUS MENTAL AND PHYSICAL HEALTH FROM FRESH AIR AND EXERCISE THEY ARE FOUNDATIONAL TO A CONNECTED COMMUNITY PROVIDING ORGANIZED AND IMPROMPTU GATHERING SPACES AND IMPROVING OUR QUALITY OF LIFE THEY MUST BE INCLUSIVE AND MULTI PROVIDING THE OPPORTUNITY TO PRESERVE AND CELEBRATE OUR CULTURE, HISTORY AND ART THROUGHOUT OUR PARKS, THEIR ECONOMIC DRIVERS FOR OUR COMMUNITY, INCREASING PRIVATE AND INCREASING PROPERTY VALUES AND SPURRING PRIVATE REDEVELOPMENT IN THE NEIGHBORING AREAS. THEY ALSO PLAY A ROLE IN ENVIRONMENTAL SENSE BY PRESERVING OPEN SPACE, INCREASING AIR QUALITY, IMPROVING AIR QUALITY AND PROMOTING EDUCATION AND STEWARDSHIP OF OUR RESOURCES. ALL OF THESE BENEFITS ARE DIRECTLY RELATED TO OUR PLAN AND THE CORE VALUES THAT WERE OUTLINED AND ADOPTED BY TOWN COUNCIL AND BASED ON THE PARKS AND RECREATION MASTER PLANNING AND SPECIAL SPECIFIC GOALS THOSE THAT WERE IN THE PARKS AND REC MASTER PLAN I'M SURE YOU'LL HEAR TODAY ABOUT PROMOTING A PRIORITIZING THE VALUE OF PARKS AND RECREATION IN OUR PROVIDING BEST IN CLASS RECREATION FACILITIES AND PROGRAMS CELEBRATING OUR UNIQUE NATURAL AMENITIES AND CULTURAL ASSETS IMPROVE AND INCREASE WATER ACCESS IMPROVE AND ENHANCE MULTI-USE TRAIL SYSTEM PROVIDE OPPORTUNITIES FOR SPORTS TOURISM, GENERATE SUFFICIENT FUNDS TO MAINTAIN AND BUILD ALL OF OUR PARKS IN A HIGH LEVEL CONDITION AND PROMOTE MULTIDAY INCLUSION FOR ACCESS FOR ALL PARKS REC CREATION PROGRAMING AND FACILITIES.

SO THESE PLANS WERE BASED ON THAT AS WE DISCUSSED. I THINK YOU'LL HEAR HOW THEY'RE NOT JUST THINKING ABOUT THOSE THINGS BUT THEY HAVE BEEN INCORPORATED IN THE FOUR FRONT OF OUR CONSULTANTS AND CLIENT TEAM OUR COMMUNITY AS WE'VE BEEN PLANNING THESE IT'S BEEN A VERY COLLABORATIVE PROCESS UNDER THE LEADERSHIP OF OUR PROJECT MANAGERS THAT ARE HERE WORKING WITH OUR WORLD CLASS CONSULTANTS. WE'RE BRINGING FIVE DRAFT PLANS BUT IT'S NOT EVEN JUST WORKING IN STAFF. THERE HAVE BEEN MANY OTHERS IN OUR COMMUNITY THAT HAVE BEEN INSTRUMENTAL GETTING US HERE TODAY.

WE HAVE FRIENDS HERE FROM PICKLEBALL FRIENDS FROM PUBLIC TENNIS, SOCCER USERS ISLAND, REC ASSOCIATION, BIKE WALK, THE NATIVE ISLAND COMMUNITY OUR NEIGHBORS, OUR RESIDENTS AND I'M NOT GOING TO I KNOW I'LL LEAVE SOMEBODY BUT IT'S BEEN A REAL COLLABORATIVE EFFORT ALONG THE WAY. SOME HAVE BEEN IN ON THE FRONT END AND SOME HAVE COME ALONG A LITTLE BIT LATER IN THE PROCESS. BUT WE'VE LISTENED AND ARE INCLUDING THOSE COMMENTS IN THESE PLANS AND THE PLANS ARE BETTER BECAUSE OF THIS

[00:05:02]

AND I KNOW PUBLIC COMMENT COMES A LITTLE BIT LATER YOUR IN YOUR AGENDA WITH THAT I'M GOING TO TURN IT OVER TO TAYLOR LADD IS THE PROJECT MANAGER FOR THE CHAPLIN COMMUNITY PARK PROJECT.

BRIAN KINSMAN IS HERE WITH ME KIOSK WORKING ON THAT PROJECT TO GO THROUGH A BRIEF

[5.a. Chaplin Community Park Master Plan]

DO YOU HAVE THE CLICKER THERE? THANK YOU. YEAH, OF COURSE.

GREAT. THANK YOU. THANK YOU, KRISTA.

SO A BIG RECOMMENDATION THAT CAME OUT OF THE PARKS AND REC MASTER PLANNING PROCESS AND THE NEEDS ASSESSMENT OF OUR ISLAND PARK NETWORK IS THAT WE NEEDED TO TAKE A STRATEGIC APPROACH TO ADDRESS INFRASTRUCTURE AND AMENITIES FOR OUR SPORTS FACILITIES SPECIFICALLY SO THAT WE HAVE ENOUGH FACILITIES FOR ALL OF OUR YOUTH AND ADULT PROGRAMS. WE HAVE A VERY ACTIVE ISLAND. WE ALSO HAVE A LOT OF ACTIVE FOLKS WHO COME AND VISIT WITH US. AND SO IT'S IMPORTANT TO MAKE SURE THAT WHAT WE HAVE OFFERING IN OUR PARKS NETWORK CAN MEET THE NEEDS OF THE FOLKS WHO LIVE IN THE FOLKS WHO VISIT HERE ALSO SO THAT WE HAVE BEST IN CLASS PARK SYSTEM AND SO THAT WE CAN CONTINUE PROVIDE OPEN SPACE, COMMUNITY SPACE AND NATURAL AREAS EVERYONE TO ENJOY.

BUT WE ALSO WANT TO BE PROVIDING SPACES IN BALANCE AND MISS RAY HERE WAS JUST TALKING BALANCE. WE WANT TO PROVIDE THE SPACES IN BALANCE WITH WHAT OUR SPORT SPORTING NEEDS ARE. SO ON THIS MAP HERE YOU CAN SEE WE HAVE CHAPLAIN CROSSINGS BARKER AS WELL AS A FUTURE ROCKET FACILITY ON MARSHLAND ROAD THAT WE'LL BE LOOKING AT

[00:10:03]

SO IT'S ABOUT 67 ACRES AND IT WAS OPENED AS A CLASSIC FACILITY WITH ALSO COMMUNITY SPACES. SO A DOG PARK THERE'S BEACH ACCESS, THERE'S TENNIS COURTS, THERE'S PATHWAYS AND AS WELL AS SPORTING FIELDS AND EXISTING TODAY THERE IS A BASEBALL SOFTBALL FIELD AS WELL SO SOME CRITICISMS OF THE PARK THAT CAME FROM ALL OF OUR COMMUNITY INPUT OVER TIME AS WELL AS THE RECREATION NEEDS ASSESSMENT THAT WE DID BACK IN 2019 IS THAT THERE'S NO CENTRAL ORGANIZING ELEMENT TO THE PARK YOU GET THERE AND THEN WHAT DO YOU DO IS THERE IS THERE A CENTRAL GATHERING SPACE SOMETHING THAT GIVES IT A SENSE OF PLACE AND A SENSE OF MEETING AS CHAPLAIN COMMUNITY PARK SO THERE'S WE'RE TRYING TO WORK ON CREATING THAT AND THERE'S ALSO SOME OUTDATED ORGANIZATION, SOME THINGS THAT ARE JUST TUCKED IN. DOES IT FEEL SAFE? WE WANT TO PROVIDE REALLY GOOD ACCESS AND SAFETY FOR THE PARK AND ALSO THERE'S A NEED FOR MORE PARKING AND LOOKING AT IMPROVING THE FIELDS TO MEET OUR NEEDS SO WITH THAT WE BROUGHT IN NEXT SLIDE PLEASE WE BROUGHT IN A TEAM TO LOOK AT A CAPACITY PLAN FOR THE PARK SO. THIS IS NOT A FINALIZED MASTER PLAN. THIS JUST LOOKING AT IF WE WHEN WE TALK TO THE COMMUNITY WHAT IT IS EVERYBODY WOULD POSSIBLY WANT HOW WOULD IT LOOK COULD IT FIT HERE NOT THAT THIS IS THE IDEAL ARRANGEMENT BUT THIS IS KIND OF PART OF THE PROCESS. THIS IS WHERE WE STARTED AND YOU'RE GOING TO SEE SOMETHING LIKE THIS FOR CROSSINGS AS WELL BUT IN THIS PROCESS WE HEARD THINGS AND THIS IS WHAT THEN WE BROUGHT IN OUR TEAM FROM IN CASCADE TO TAKE FORWARD IS THAT WE WANTED TO CREATE THAT IMPACTFUL AND MEMORABLE PARK MOMENT AND SENSE OF PLACE WE WANTED BURKS BEACH ROAD AND CASS NET DRIVE TO FEEL LIKE A ROAD THROUGH A AND TO BE A SAFE ENVIRONMENT WE WANTED TO DISTRIBUTE PARKING AND DEVELOP GATEWAYS INTO THE PARK SO THERE HAS BEEN DISCUSSIONS IN THE PAST ABOUT A LINEAR PARK CONNECTING THROUGH CHAPLIN TO THE BEACH ALL THE WAY FROM SHELTER COVE SO THAT WOULD BE PART AN ELEMENT OF THIS AND PART OF THE GATEWAY ASPECT OF THE PARK BALANCE A PROPOSED PROGRAM WITH EXISTING EXISTING NATURAL RESOURCES. SO WE DON'T WANT TO PAVE OVER EVERYTHING WE WANT THERE TO BE THAT BALANCE AGAIN WE WANT TO EMBRACE THE FOLLY THE MARSHLAND EDGE AND REALLY CELEBRATE THAT CELEBRATE THE BEACH AND BALANCE THE REST OF IT WITH THE NEIGHBORHOODS AND FOLKS WHO ARE VISITING AND THE FOLKS WHO LIVE NEARBY. SO AS WITH ANY PLANNING EXERCISE IT IS AN ITERATIVE PROCESS. I MEAN WE'VE BEEN THROUGH PAGES AND PAGES OF PLANNING FOR THIS PARK AND YOU KNOW, DIFFERENT DESIGN ITERATIONS TO GET US TO WE ARE TODAY AND ALONG THE WAY WE'VE HEARD A LOT OF FEEDBACK AND.

WE'RE VERY EXCITED TO BRING THIS NEXT STEP FORWARD TO YOU SO THAT MR. COUNCILMAN, I'LL HAND IT OVER TO YOU. NEXT SLIDE. THANK YOU.

TAYLOR MR. MAYOR, MR. MANAGER AND COUNCIL, THANKS AGAIN FOR HAVING AGAIN FOR SAKE OF THE AUDIENCE MY NAME IS BRIAN KINSMAN. I'M SENIOR PRINCIPAL AT THEM CASCADE AS TAYLOR HAD SUGGESTED STEPH DOES IT I THINK IT ABSOLUTELY JOB OF ADJUDICATING USERS UNDERSTANDING TRENDS AND FINDING A PLACE FOR IT ON OUR ISLAND WE'RE LUCKY TO HAVE A MAGNIFICENT PARK SYSTEM. WE'RE VERY, VERY FORTUNATE TO HAVE WHAT WE HAVE AND IT'S GETTING WITH EVERY PASSING DAY SO THE EXISTING FACILITIES ON THE PARKER LISTED ON THE LEFT ON THE RIGHT ARE THE PARK PROGRAM ISSUES THAT WE HEARD FROM THE PUBLIC AND FROM SUGGESTIONS THAT WE WANT TO ADD TO THE PARK RESTROOMS ACCOMMODATIONS FOR PICKLEBALL REPURPOSING TENNIS COURTS POTENTIALLY ADDING COVER FOR BASKETBALL COURTS, DOG PARK BEACH OPERATIONS AND ACCESS, IMPROVED SAFETY FOR ALL PEDESTRIANS, VEHICLE OPERATORS, PARK USERS THAT IS UNDERSTOOD THROUGHOUT ALL OF THIS NEW DESTINATION AND PLAY AREA AGAIN EXPANSION OF THE PARK SO WITH THAT KID OF PARTS AND ASSUMING MY CLICKER WORKS AND IT DOES THANK YOU VERY MUCH AS YOU SQUINT YOUR EYES AND LOOK AT THIS BEAUTIFUL PIECE OF GROUND

[00:15:03]

IT HAS TO SATISFY THE NEEDS OF THOSE WHO ARE ADJACENT AND ALSO WE'VE GOT THE NATURAL ENVIRONMENT WE'VE THAT WE START WITH AND PROTECT AS WE WORK IN THESE OTHER USES.

THIS IS THE CONCEPT THAT WE'VE GENERATED FROM THAT DIAGRAM THAT TAYLOR HAD SUGGESTED I WANT TO GO THROUGH THE SYSTEMS AND ENLARGEMENTS BECAUSE AT THIS SCALE VERY DIFFICULT TO READ WITHOUT THAT MORE DETAILED EXPLANATION FIRST OF THOSE GATEWAYS INTO THE PARK AS IS AT THE PARKWAY WE'VE GOT A SIGNALIZED INTERSECTION THAT SAFE CROSSING AND CONNECTION TO CHAPLIN LINEAR PARK ULTIMATELY TO SHELTER COVE PARK AND THAT CONTINUATION THROUGH THIS PARK TO BERK'S BEACH IS IS CERTAINLY A GOAL CAST NET AND AND SINGLETON WE WANT THOSE TO FEEL MORE LIKE PARK DRIVES NOT COLLECTOR STREETS SO THEY BE THEY BELONG TO THE PARK AGAIN CAST SAID IT'S GOT THIS MAGNIFICENT ENVIRONMENT WITH FOLLY AND OPEN TO TO OUR EAST WE WANT THAT TO TAKE FULL ADVANTAGE OF THAT WITH VIEWS AND PEDESTRIAN ACCESS AND CREATE SAFE INTUITIVE CROSSINGS AT AT BERKS AT SINGLETON SO THAT USERS CAN CROSS SAFELY MOTORISTS CAN CAN CAN VISUALLY UNDERSTAND THOSE PARK USERS AND PROVIDE A SENSE OF ARRIVAL AGAIN AS TAYLOR SUGGESTED, I THINK WHAT THIS PARK LACKS IS THAT SENSE ORGANIZATION.

I'LL COME TO THAT IN A MOMENT. BERKS BEACH IS A DIRECT ACCESS TO ONE OF OUR PRIMARY BEACHES ON THE ISLAND. WE ALL KNOW POPULAR OUR BEACHES ARE FOR GOOD FOR GOOD REASON.

IT ALSO A NEIGHBORHOOD STREET SO WE'VE GOT THOSE FOLKS LIVE OFF OF BOTH SINGLETON AND BERKS BEACH THAT MUST ACCOMMODATED WHILE WE'RE PROVIDING SAFE ACCESS FOR VEHICLES AND PEDESTRIANS AND INTUITIVE PLACES FOR PEOPLE TO PARK AND TO DROP OFF AND ENHANCE THOSE STREETSCAPES GET BACK TO THAT CONNECTION FROM SHELTER ALL THE WAY TO BERKS BEACH AND BEYOND THIS GREENBELT AND TRAIL SYSTEM CONNECTION ACROSS THE PARKWAY THROUGH THE NATURAL AREA OF THE PARK ALONG THE FARLEY AND TO BERKS BEACH WHILE WE'RE CELEBRATING THE ISLAND HERITAGE AND THE CULTURE IN THE AND THE BACKDROP OF OF WHERE THE TOWN HAS COME FROM WHICH I THINK IS AN IMPORTANT STORY TO TELL ALL OF THE TIME EVERYWHERE SO THROUGH THOSE SERIES OF SPACES AND TRAILS AND NODES WE CAN HEAR THE STORY AS WE SAY OF WHERE WE'VE COME FROM THE HERITAGE THE PLACE THE CULTURE, THE NATURAL SYSTEMS THAT EVERYBODY IS ENJOYING IT'S IMPORTANT FOR PEOPLE TO UNDERSTAND AND LEARN WHAT THE PLACE REALLY MEANS.

I'VE GOT ENLARGE PLANS HERE AGAIN TO BETTER UNDERSTAND HOW THIS LARGE PARK OUT TO THE WHOLE IDEA OF ORGANIZATION WE FELT IT WAS IMPORTANT THAT THE PLACE HAD A CENTER, A PEOPLE CENTER TO IT WE'VE ALSO BEEN VERY COGNIZANT STAFF AND OURSELVES IN UTILIZING AS MUCH OF THE EXISTING AS POSSIBLE. WE'VE GOT TO BE GOOD STEWARDS OF OUR LIMITED FINANCIAL SO WE'RE WE'RE BUILDING UPON MOST OF THE PARKING AREAS. WE'RE REPURPOSING WE CAN WE'RE TAKING ADVANTAGE OF THE OPEN FIELDS FOR PLAY AND AND ALIGNING FIELDS MAYBE BETTER WITHIN THOSE OPENINGS AND THEN CREATE SENSE OF PLACE SO THE PARKING AREAS OFF OF BOTH CAST NET AND BERKS BEACH AND AT A NEXUS OF THIS PEOPLE ACTIVE PLACE OF OF A CORE THE PARK IT'S COMPLETE WITH BIKE HUB CONCESSIONS RESTROOMS OUTDOOR LAWN SPACE PLACES FOR FOOD TRUCKS DROP OFF FOR FOR MOMS DADS FAMILIES TEAMS DESTINATION PLAYGROUND THIS IS REALLY THE PEOPLE INTENSE PLACE OF THE PARK WE ALSO HEARD THROUGH OUR CORRIDORS WORK THAT THE THE BICYCLE COMMUNITY ON THE ISLAND HAS BROUGHT TO OUR ATTENTION RIGHTFULLY SO THAT THERE'S A LACK OF RESTROOM AND COMFORT STATIONS ALONG THIS BEAUTIFUL TRAIL SYSTEM THAT WE HAVE.

IT'S GOING TO GET BETTER OVER TIME AND THAT MANY BICYCLISTS UTILIZING PRIVATE PRIVATE PROPERTY AND PRIVATE BUSINESSES FOR THE USE OF RESTROOM FACILITIES WE THOUGHT IT WAS

[00:20:02]

WE WOULD LOOK TO CONTINUE THAT THOUGHTFUL NESS AS WE BUILD NEW STRUCTURES WITHIN THIS PARK TAKING ADVANTAGE AGAIN OF THE EXISTING FIELD OPENINGS BUT WE'RE PROVIDING FOR THREE TURF FULL SIZE FIELDS AND TWO ARTIFICIAL SURFACE FULL SIZE MULTIPURPOSE FIELDS AS WELL WITH THE FULL OF GOALS AND BLEACHERS AND COVER PLAYER AND LIGHTS AND THE LIKE.

SO THIS IS A THIS IS FULLY OPTIONED AS WERE AND THEN THE DISTRIBUTION OF PARKING TAKING ADVANTAGE OF THAT THAT EXISTS OFF OF BERKS BEACH WORKS IT WE'RE EXPANDING THE PARKING OFF OF CAST IN BOTH LOCATIONS NORTH AND SOUTH WITH RESTROOMS AND AND VENDING STATIONS AND FIELD PAVILION AT THE DESTINATION PLAYGROUND A REIMAGINED DOG PARK AND NATURE PARK AND PATHWAY SYSTEM THEN THE NEIGHBORHOOD PARK WE THINK CAN SPEAK TO THE BEAUTIFUL ENVIRONMENT OF THE OF THE AND THE DUNES AND BE SOMETHING SPECIAL AND UNIQUE TO THIS PLACE ACTIVE RECREATION IN THE SOUTHERN PORTION OF THE PARK SOUTH OF OF SINGLETON A COVERED BASKETBALL COURTS A NEW BEACH OPERATIONS FACILITY TAKING ADVANTAGE OF THE PARKING LOT THAT THERE THE ADDITION OF PICKLEBALL IN THAT LOCATION THE REPURPOSING OF THE EXISTING TENNIS COURTS PICKLEBALL COURTS AND THE ADDITION OF TO PADDLE COURTS AS WELL.

SO THAT GIVES US 24 PICKLEBALL COURTS IN THE PLACE OF THOSE TENNIS COURTS WILL COME TO WHERE WE'RE WHERE TENNIS ON THE ISLAND WILL RESIDE IN IN A MOMENT FULL ACCOMMODATIONS THERE AS WELL. RESTROOMS, SHADE STRUCTURES, INTUITIVE AND, CLEAR AND SAFE PASSAGE FROM PLACE TO PLACE TO PLACE IN THE PARK TO PARKING TO THESE FACILITIES WITH SAFE CROSSWALKS AND INTERSECTIONS. THE NEIGHBORHOOD OF AMENITIES OF OPEN LAWN PICNIC PAVILIONS PATHWAYS AGAIN DOG PARK A NATURE PLAY AND PART OF THE TELLING THE STORY OF KIOSK AND HERITAGE MESSAGING ALONG THE WAY ALONG BERK'S BEACH AGAIN A VERY POPULAR AND MEANINGFUL ACCESS POINT TO THE BEACH IMPROVED DROP OFF WITH A RESTROOM AND WASH OFF SAFE IMPROVED INTERSECTION EXPANDED PARKING TRAIL SYSTEM FROM PARKING TO THE BEACH AGAIN WITH UNDERSTANDING THAT WE'VE GOT RESIDENTS TO OUR NORTH ACTIVE BEACHGOERS GOING TO THE TO THE BEACH ITSELF OPPORTUNITY FOR AN OVERLOOK INTO THE FOLLY IT IS A MAGNIFICENT ENVIRONMENT AND NATURE TRAILS ON THE ON THE PENINSULA THIS GIVES YOU A BIRDSEYE PERSPECTIVE OF THE THE BREADTH OF THE PARK LOOKING TO THE SOUTHEAST THAT ARCHITECTURE IS A PLACEHOLDER NOT THE ARCHITECTURAL STYLE THAT WE'RE PROPOSING SIMPLY REPRESENTS SOME ENCLOSED PROGRAM BUT YOU CAN SEE PARKING BOTH RIGHT AND LEFT OPPORTUNITY FOR TRUCKS FOR DROP OFF FOR POP UP TENTS OPEN FIELD THE MULTIPURPOSE FIELDS THE BURKES BEACH ACCESS IN THE IN THE BACKGROUND SO THIS IS NOW I FEEL AN ORGANIZED PLACE A REAL COMMUNITY PLACE WITH SAFE CROSSINGS WE'VE INCREASED THE PARKING WIDE BY 40% SO WE'VE ADDED SIGNIFICANTLY TO THE 48% INCREASE OF PARKING TO BE MORE PRECISE. SO THEN NOT ONLY ACCOMMODATES THE FIELD USERS AND THEIR FAMILIES IN THE DESTINATION PLAYGROUND BUT BUT ALSO THE BEACH ACCESS IF THIS BEACHES TO TAKE OFF MAYBE SOME PRESSURE OF BEACHES ELSEWHERE WE'VE GOT TO ACCOMMODATE THOSE BEACHGOERS AND THERE'S THE THE FULL MONTY THEY SAY ALL IN ONE VIEW SHED IT'S A MAGNIFICENT PIECE

[00:25:04]

I'LL BE HAPPY TO. ANY QUESTIONS? WELL, LET'S IF YOU DON'T MIND LET'S LOOK AT SINCE YOU MENTIONED TENNIS, LET'S HAVE QUICK CONVERSATION AND THEN GO BACK TO THIS. SO CHRISTOPHER, YOU'LL OPEN THE ONE THAT'S TENNIS CONCEPT A SO WHERE TAYLOR STARTED WITH CONVERSATION IS WHERE WE STARTED WHICH WAS TAKING THE PROGRAM AND TRYING TO APPLY EVERYTHING TO CHAPLIN PARK AND YOU COULD TELL THAT THERE WAS REALLY NO ROOM TO BREATHE THERE WAS NO AREA JUST LEFT AS OPEN SPACE FOR THE SAKE OF HAVING GREEN OPEN SPACE IN A PARK. SO WE STARTED LOOKING AT AND ONE WAS TO GO TO A SITE THAT THE TOWN OWNS ON MARSHLAND ROAD AND LOOK AT THE ADDITION OF A TENNIS COMPLEX TO OUR PARK SYSTEM. SO THIS IS THERE ANY WAY TO SHRINK IT DOWN JUST A LITTLE BIT? IT SHOWS AND THIS IS NOT TO THE LEVEL OF THESE OTHER PAKTIA WE JUST DOING A CAPACITY STUDY TO SEE WHAT WOULD WORK BUT AND WE'LL COME BACK TO YOU AT A LATER DATE TO TALK SPECIFICALLY THIS PARK. BUT I THINK IT'S IMPORTANT ESPECIALLY FOR OUR GUESTS HERE TODAY TO UNDERSTAND WHEN BRIAN SAYS REPURPOSE TENNIS FOR PICKLEBALL IT DOESN'T MEAN THAT THERE'S NOT A VALUE ANY MORE IN SO WANTED TO GIVE A LITTLE SNAPSHOT THIS COMPLEX IS SHOWING 2022 COURTS A MIX OF HEART TRUE AND HARD SURFACE COURTS WITH PARKING AS WELL AS SOME COMMUNITY FACILITIES TAKING ADVANTAGE OF THE VIEWS OUT THERE OF THE CREEK KAYAK LAUNCH YOU HAVE SOME PUBLIC SPACE BEYOND JUST TENNIS THIS IS AT THE LEVEL THAT WE JUST GOT A SURVEY AND WE'RE WORKING WITH SANTEE COOPER AND OUR TRISTAN WETLANDS TO SEE WHAT WOULD REALLY FIT BUT WANTED TO SHOW THAT THAT IS HOW WE BELIEVE ONE WAY THAT WOULD WORK TO MOVE TENNIS OUT OF IS TO PROVIDE A NEW HOME TO TENNIS AND REPURPOSE TO PUT PICKLEBALL THERE. THERE ARE LOTS OF WAYS TO DO IT . THIS IS JUST ONE ONE WAY FOR CONSIDER ASIAN.

SO IF YOU WANT TO GO BACK TO THE CHAPLIN PRESENTATION, I THINK WE'RE READY AT THIS POINT TO TAKE COMMENTS. TOWN COUNCIL OKAY. COUNCIL MEMBERS ANY COMMENTS OR QUESTIONS I'M HAPPY TO JUMP IN . WELL, THANK YOU BRIAN AND JEN AND TAYLOR FOR ALL THE WORK THAT YOU'VE DONE. I KNOW THIS HAS BEEN A PROJECT THAT YOU ALL HAVE BEEN FOCUSED ON FOR PROBABLY AT LEAST MORE THAN A YEAR.

AND SO IT'S IT'S NICE TO SEE SOMETHING ON PAPER BEING BROUGHT FORTH TO COUNCIL.

I'M GOING TO START WHERE I AM. MY HEART IS WITH WITH THIS AND THEN MOVE DOWN TO THINGS THAT ARE CLOSELY SECONDS AND THIRDS BUT FIRSTLY ENVIRONMENT THIS AREA WITH THE FARLEY OF HILTON HEAD IS ONE OF THE MOST ENVIRONMENTAL INTO LEAST SENSITIVE AREAS WITH MORE THAN FIVE OR FIVE SYSTEMS THAT COLLIDE THE IDEA AND I DON'T MEAN TO BE NEGATIVE BUT THE IDEA WE ARE GOING TO INTRODUCE OVERLOOKS OR TREEHOUSES OR PATHWAYS THROUGH THAT AREA IS REALLY FOR ME IS NOT A IS A NONSTARTER WE MUST CONTINUE ON HILTON HEAD TO PRESERVE OUR ENVIRONMENT THAT WE WERE GIVEN AND BLESSED WITH AND THOSE TYPES OF PLANS DO NOTHING BUT TO DESTROY WHAT HAS MADE HEAD SPECIAL THROUGHOUT EVERY DOCUMENT THAT I READ AND I WENT BACK OVER THE LAST COUPLE OF DAYS AND READ ALL OF OUR REPORTS THAT HILTON HEAD HAS THE ROUDA REPORT, THE WARD ONE REPORT AND EVERY ONE OF THOSE COMING FORWARD AND WHAT IS EVERY SINGLE REPORT IS THAT WE MUST PROTECT OUR ENVIRONMENT AND SO I PERSONALLY DO NOT WANT TO SEE PATHWAYS HIKING TRAILS THROUGH THAT ENVIRONMENTALLY SENSITIVE AREA.

I DO NOT WANT TO SEE SOMETHING PROTRUDING OUT INTO THAT VALLEY AREA AS AN OVERLOOK I WOULD

[00:30:02]

AND SO I'D LIKE FOR US TO REVISIT THAT AND AND NOT INCLUDE THOSE TYPES OF THINGS AND WHILE I ALSO UNDERSTAND IN THAT AN OPENING TO ANNOUNCE THIS BEAUTIFUL PARK MIGHT BE IMPORTANT TO 78 IS A PARKWAY IT IS NOT A THOROUGHFARE AND EVERY TIME WE OPEN UP THE LAND TO THE PARKWAY WE DO NOTHING BUT DIMINISH THE IDEA THAT WILLIAM HILTON IT IS A PARKWAY TO 78 IS A PARKWAY AND SHOULD BE INSTEAD BEING BUILT WITH MORE GREEN SPACE MORE LAND SPACE MORE PATHWAYS THAT INTERTWINE TO GIVE US A SENSE THAT WE'RE ONE COMMUNITY AND ONE ISLAND AND NOT AN ISLAND WITH A MAJOR THOROUGHFARE FROM THE BEGINNING TO CIRCLE.

SO THOSE ARE SOME OF MY VERY OPINIONS OTHER THAN THAT I THINK THERE ARE AN AWFUL LOT OF BEAUTIFUL THINGS THAT WILL HAPPEN HERE. I THINK PICKLEBALL IS IMPORTANT OBVIOUSLY AND I KNOW THAT THERE IS A STRONG DESIRE TO HAVE THESE COURTS.

I WORRY ABOUT THE LOGISTICS. I DO NOT THINK THAT WE SHOULD BE TRADING ONE FOR THE OTHER BUT HAS TO BE A SEAMLESS TRANSITION. I THINK THE FUTURE OF TENNIS PARK WILL BE AN IMPRESSIVE SPOT AND WILL HOLD A LOT OF GOOD NEWS FOR US AND THE TENNIS WORLD IN THE FUTURE. BUT THERE DOES NEED TO BE SEAMLESS TRANSITION SO THAT WE CAN BRING PICKLEBALL INTO PLAY IN AN APPROPRIATE HILTON HEAD WAY WORLD CLASS WHILE WE'RE DESIGNING THAT TENNIS SPACE. SO THOSE ARE MY YEAH THOSE ARE MY COMMENTS FOR THANK YOU THANK YOU BETSY FOR I WAS TOLD LAST TIME I HAD TO GET CLOSER TO THE MIKE SO THOSE THE BACK HERE ME OKAY OKAY GREAT FIRST OF ALL I HAVE A TOTALLY DIFFERENT VIEW OF THINGS.

I VALUE THE ENVIRONMENT AS WELL BUT ALSO LOVE PARKS AND I LOVE RECREATION AND I LIKE THAT THIS CONCEPT HAS LOOKED PROGRAMING DIFFERENT PARKS AND BALANCING THAT OUT I THINK THAT'S IMPORTANT TO DO I GREW UP GOING TO PARKS. I LEARNED TO PLAY TENNIS ON A PUBLIC PARK, A BACKPACK ON THE APPALACHIAN AND OTHER PLACES. SO I APPRECIATE GOING LOTS OF NATIONAL INTERNATIONAL PARKS AND AND THEM PARDON ME MY PROGRAM IS IMPORTANT AND I DO LIKE THE INTRODUCTION OF YOU KNOW SPECIFIC AREAS FOR SPECIFIC ACTIVITIES I THINK THAT'S VERY HELPFUL ON SUNNY AFTERNOON I SPENT SOME TIME AND DRIVING AROUND THIS PARK AND THE OTHER PARKS THAT WE'RE CONSIDERING EXCEPT FOR A COUPLE OF THEM I COULDN'T MAKE TWO ON SUNNY AFTERNOON BECAUSE WAS A SUPER BOWL GOING ON AND THAT KIND OF YOU KNOW ALSO DIRECTED MY SON THE ACTIVITIES BUT A COUPLE OF THINGS ONE IS ALWAYS ASKING ABOUT PHASING YOU HOW DO

[00:35:04]

HOW MUCH WHAT'S THE SIZE OF THAT ACREAGE AND AND WHAT SIZE IS ACTUALLY BUILDABLE ACREAGE? SO I'D LIKE TO KNOW ABOUT THAT BECAUSE I'VE HEARD FROM THE PICKLEBALL COMMUNITY THAT THE SEPARATION IN THOSE TWO LOCATIONS IS A BIT CHALLENGING AND HAVING WALKED AROUND ALL THOSE AREAS ON SUNDAY AFTERNOON I AGREE AND I JUST WONDERED ABOUT CENTERING PICKLEBALL ACTIVITIES IN ONE PLACE AS WE'RE CENTERING THE MULTI-USE FIELDS IN ONE PLACE BECAUSE I THINK THAT WOULD BE HELPFUL IF YOU'RE HAVING EVENTS WHERE YOU'RE COMPETING AND YOU'RE MOVING ONE COURT TO THE OTHER. I APPRECIATE THAT.

YOU KNOW THERE'S SOME IN IN NOT MAKING SINGLETON BEACH AS HEAVILY TRAFFICKED BUT I DO THINK ABOUT THE DEVELOPMENT THAT'S AT THE END OF THAT SINGLETON BEACH ROAD AND AND AND TRAFFIC CROSSING WHEN WE'RE NOT PAYING ATTENTION TO WHAT COURT I'M HEADED TO AND HOW WELL DID I SCORE AND HOW DO HOW DO I NEED TO IMPROVE MY FLIGHT INFO EXTRA EXCITED RUNNING BACK AND FORTH ACROSS THE ROAD SO I'M MORE CONCERNED SEPARATING THOSE ACTIVITIES SO I LIKE THE PROGRAMING I LIKE THAT THIS COMBINES TRAILS TO APPRECIATE THE ENVIRONMENT AS A BICYCLIST I LOVE THE PATHWAYS, I LOVE THE CONNECTION THE CHAPLIN LINEAR PARK IDEA MY FAMILY AND I WENT TO THIS BEACH ACCESS SO I THINK THAT AN IMPROVEMENT IN THAT BEACH TURN AROUND AREA WOULD BE GREAT BECAUSE IT WAS CERTAINLY JAMMED UP LAST. SO WHAT ELSE CAN I SAY ABOUT IT WHEN YOU LOOK AT MY NOTES I LIKE THE ARTIFICIAL TURF FIELDS I UNDERSTAND FROM FOLKS THAT THAT IS IS HELPFUL TO ESPECIALLY KIDS ACTIVITIES TO ARTIFICIAL TURF.

YEAH AND I THINK I THINK THOSE ARE BASICALLY MY COMMENTS AND THE FINAL THING IS WE DIDN'T ABOUT STORM DRAINAGE BUT IN INTRODUCING DIFFERENT PHASES AND MAYBE SOME OTHER IMPROVEMENTS WHAT ARE WE DOING? THERE ARE SOME LAGOONS THERE AND WHAT'S THE IMPACT HERE ON THE STORM DRAINAGE SYSTEM ON THE PROPERTY? ARE WE PROTECTING THAT FROM FUTURE FLOODING EVENT? SO I WANT TO HEAR A LITTLE BIT ABOUT STORM DRAINAGE AS WELL HAVE NOT YET PLAYED PADDLE BALL BUT OF ALL THE SPORTS I'VE EVER TRIED IN MY LIFE I LOOK FORWARD TO TRYING MORE. ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU, STEVE AND WELL, FIRST OF ALL, I THINK IT'S A VERY IMPRESSIVE PRESENTATION BY STAFF AND BY CASCADE.

I APPRECIATE HOW INCLUSIVE IT IS IN TERMS OF THE NUMBER OF DIFFERENT ACTIVITIES.

I'M PLEASED TO SEE PICKLEBALL COURTS AND THE PATHWAY IT IS I THINK PEDESTRIAN AND CYCLE ACTIVITY THROUGH THIS PARK WILL BE IMPORTANT. MY ONE QUESTION HERE IS THAT THERE'S A REFERENCE TO A PICKLEBALL STADIUM IS IT ANYTHING MORE AT THIS POINT THAN A LITTLE BLOCK ON THE MAP ? I WILL, YEAH.

AT THIS AT THIS LEVEL OF DETAIL IT'S TAKING TWO OF THE PICKLEBALL COURTS AND CONVERTING THEM INTO A STADIUM. SO ADDING THE BLEACHERS SO THAT YOU COULD HAVE A STADIUM COURT AS PART OF THAT LARGER COMPLEX . OKAY.

THANK YOU. THANK YOU. MAYOR OKAY, ALEX I LIKE IT.

YEAH. WHAT I'M DEFINITELY IN OF THE DIRECTION I REALLY APPRECIATE ALL THE TIME AND EFFORT HAS GONE INTO GETTING US TO THIS POINT AND FOR SOME THAT MAY HAVE HEARD SOME OF WHAT I'M ABOUT TO SAY I APOLOGIZE. WE DO HAVE NEW UH NEW FACES AND THOUGHTS IN THE WRONG CHAPEL IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD. THE PARK IS NAMED CHAPLAIN FOR

[00:40:10]

BUT WHEN WE START TO TALK ABOUT ISLAND HERITAGE, I WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT WE'RE TELLING THE COMPLETE STORY AND I ALSO WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT WE'RE UNDERSTANDING THAT WE HAVE COME A LONG FROM WHEN THIS WAS A PLANTATION. SO AS I LOOK AT THIS LAYOUT OF AMENITIES OPPORTUNITY IT JUST SEEMS TO ME A SENSE OF PLACE FOR EVERYBODY ON HILTON HEAD SO AGAIN I APPRECIATE THE DIRECTION AND WHERE WE'RE GOING.

UM, A FEW THINGS THAT I WANTED TO TO JUST ADD ONE THE THE FOLLY I AGREE IS VERY, VERY SENSITIVE AREA AND WHILE I WOULD NOT WANT TO PAVED PATHWAYS TO FOLLY I WOULD CERTAINLY LIKE TO MAINTAIN THE NATURAL PATHS THAT HAVE BEEN CREATED OVER GENERATIONS SO THEREFORE I CAN ACCESS THE FOLLY FISHING. OKAY.

UM, I WAS I WAS THERE AND GOT MUDDIED A FEW MONTHS AGO. NEVERTHELESS IT IS VERY ACTIVELY USED AND I DON'T WANT THAT TO GO AWAY. THE NEXT IS A SOLID BEACH VOLLEYBALL WAS KIND OF AN ASIDE NOTE THERE. UM SAND VOLLEYBALL I'M NOT IF THAT'S INCLUDED IN ANOTHER PLAN OR IF THERE'S SOMETHING THAT DIDN'T FEEL AS IF WE HAD ENOUGH REQUESTS. BUT I WILL TELL YOU THAT MY COATTAIL GETS PULLED AS FAR AS THE SAND VOLLEYBALL IS CONCERNED AND US BEING AN ISLAND IT ALMOST SEEMS APPROPRIATE THAT WE HAVE IT SOMEWHERE AND IT DEFINITELY SPEAKS TO A DEMOGRAPHIC THAT WE ARE NOT ONLY HAVE HERE ON HILTON HEAD BUT ACTUALLY ATTRACTING.

AND THE LAST THING I JUST WANT TO TALK SAFETY A BIT THE SIGNAL AS INTERSECTION IS SINGLETON IS GREAT AS WE START TO EVOLVE HERE WITH MORE ACTIVITY THE THING ABOUT CHAPLAIN PARK IS ONE OF THE FEW PARKS THAT HAS THE THE COMPETITION OF ALSO BE TEXAS RIGHT SO I'M NOT OPPOSED AND I STRONGLY SUGGESTED THAT WE CONSIDER GOING AFTER NCDOT FOR SIGNALIZED INTERSECTION AT BURGES BEACH ROAD ALSO. OKAY THAT THE CHAPLAIN CORRIDOR IS ONE THAT EXPERIENCES VERY VERY FAST TRAFFIC AND WE'VE TALKED FOR A LONG TIME ABOUT TRYING TO SLOW THE DOWN AND I THINK AN INTERSECTION WITH A LIGHT HELP DO THAT. SO AS WE MOVE IN THE DIRECTION OF SPENDING MONEY TO DO THIS, I THINK WE NEED TO BE VERY MINDFUL IN VERY WITH WE'RE FIXING OUR TRAFFIC ISSUES THROUGHOUT THIS QUARTER. SO THOSE ARE MY COMMENTS AND AGAIN I THINK THE STAFF AND OF COURSE OUR CONSULTANTS AND THE COMMUNITY FOR ALL THE INPUT ALONG THE WAY WE ARE DEFINITELY GETTING TO A VERY GOOD PLACE WITH THESE PLANS.

RIGHT. THANK YOU, ALEX GLENN, CAN YOU HEAR ME? I CAN HEAR YOU. CAN YOU HEAR ME? YES, SIR, WE CAN GO AHEAD.

GOOD. FIRST I WANT TO THANK TAYLOR AND JENNIFER AND BRIAN AND THE WHOLE TEAM FOR DOING AN OUTSTANDING PRESENTATION AND VERY CREATIVE AND LISTENING TO WHAT THE INPUT HAS BEEN FROM CITIZENS AS WELL AS THE TOWN COUNCIL AND THEN OF COURSE THE EXPERTS I'M PLEASED TO SEE THAT THIS IS GOING TO BE MAINTAINED AS A AN BAR.

WE ALL KNOW THAT ALAN IT OUT WE'RE FOCUSING ON THAT AS BEING MORE OF A PASSIVE PART AND SO HERE WE HAVE TWO CENTRAL BANKS WHICH SHOWED TOTALLY DIFFERENT INTEREST AND NEEDS MOVING FORWARD. SO I THINK THAT'S OUTSTANDING. HONESTLY IT NEVER OCCURRED TO ME TO MOVE THE MAJOR TRIALS AND TO THE BAR BUT GOLLY THAT'S A GREAT IDEA.

IT'S AN OUTSTANDING IDEA. UM, I HAVE BEEN HEARING FROM CITIZENS AND A LOT OF MY CLOSE FRIENDS ABOUT THE BALL FOR OR FIVE YEARS NOW. SO HERE WE ARE ON THE BRINK

[00:45:03]

I LOOK FORWARD TO SEEING THIS BAR RISE AND DEVELOP. THANK YOU.

THANK YOU GLEN DAVID THANK YOU MAYOR AND I'M ENTHUSIASTIC ABOUT THE ENTIRE PRESENTATION TODAY BUT BECAUSE OF MY BACKGROUND I LOOK AT PLANS AND ASK THE QUESTION WHAT ARE THEY TRYING TO TELL US? IN OTHER WORDS I THINK IT'S IMPORTANT TO INTERPRET WHAT IS THE LANGUAGE OF PLANNING SO THAT WE KNOW WHAT WE ARE GOING TO GET.

I BEGIN WITH A HIGH VALUE OF PRESERVATION OF THE BARRIER ISLAND SUBTROPICAL VEGETATION AND HABITAT FOR ANIMALS AND SECONDLY HIGH REGARD FOR OUR BRAND OF EXCELLENCE HERE PEOPLE SAYING WE NEED TO PRESERVE THAT BARRIER ISLAND VEGETATION AND ENVIRONMENT WE A CHALLENGE EVERY NEW PERSON WHO COMES ON TO THIS ISLAND LIVES IN A HOUSE THAT USED TO HAVE TREES.

EVERY PERSON COMES TO OUR ISLAND AND EXPECTS SERVICES AND TODAY WE'RE TALKING ABOUT RECREATION SO IT'S VERY DIFFICULT ON A 28,000 ACRE ISLAND TO PRESERVE TO THE EXTENT THAT I WAS USED TO BACK IN 1973 WHEN WE HAVE PEOPLE COMING TO THIS ISLAND IN 2023 AND WANT TO LIVE HERE SO WE ARE IN FACT NIBBLED BY NIBBLE URBANIZING THIS ISLAND AND THE QUESTION IS ARE WE GOING TO HAVE AREAS THAT WE CAN POINT TO IN THE FUTURE AND SAY THAT IS AN EXAMPLE OF SUB VEGETATION AND A HABITAT FOR THE ANIMALS THAT WANT TO LIVE HERE.

THAT'S A REAL CHALLENGE STRATEGICALLY FOR US IN ALL OF THESE CONVERSATIONS THAT WE'RE HAVING TODAY IN TERMS OF BRAND EXCELLENCE, WE ALL KNOW THAT HERITAGE GOLF TOURNAMENT IS A HUGE EVENT. THIS ISLAND BRAND EXCELLENCE FOR GOLF WE USED TO HAVE THE FAMILY CIRCLE CUP ON THE ISLAND BRAND EXCELLENCE FOR TENNIS WE HAVE GOLD BAIT PATHWAYS ON TO PLATINUM. WE TO DO GREAT THINGS WITH PICKLEBALL AS A MATTER OF FACT DUNES IS ALREADY HAVING NATIONAL TOURNAMENTS HERE SO WE ARE DOING THINGS THAT SUPPORT BRAND EXCELLENCE. BUT WHEN I LOOK AT CHAPLIN AND AS A MATTER OF FACT WHEN I LOOK AT ALL FOUR FIVE OF THE ANNOTATIONS TODAY I SAY WHAT ARE OUR STRATEGIC COMMITMENTS THAT WE ARE MAKING THESE PLANS AND WHAT MIGHT BE MISSING THESE PLANS STRATEGIC COMMITMENTS.

WE KNOW THAT KILLINEY BEACH IS OUR MAIN BEACH PARKING AREA AND ATTRACTION A STRATEGIC QUESTION I DON'T THINK WE HAVE TO ANSWER TODAY THOUGH IS THAT WHAT WE ARE GOING TO LIVE WITH BECAUSE IT HAS TREMENDOUS IMPACTS ON THE PALMETTO BAY POPE AVENUE CORRIDOR AND AS OFF ISLAND

[00:50:06]

BUT WE OUGHT TO ANSWER THE QUESTION TODAY DO WE WANT TO LEAVE OPEN THE OPTION FOR SOME KIND OF BRAND EXCELLENT SWIMMING COMPLEX COMPETITION WHATEVER YOU WANT TO CALL IT FOR THIS COMMUNITY? I THINK IT'S IMPORTANT BECAUSE IT ATTRACTS YOUNG FAMILIES WHO ARE VERY HEALTH ORIENTED AND WANT TO BE ABLE TO BE IN A SWIMMING POOL AND TODAY WE SIMPLY AREN'T MEETING THAT LEVEL OF BRAND EXCELLENCE IN SWIMMING SWIMMING.

IT'S IMPORTANT FOR THE PUBLIC TO REMEMBER ALL THESE PLANS ARE GOING TO PHASED WHEN YOU SEE SOMETHING ON THE ISLE ON THE ON THE SCREEN IT'S NOT GOING TO COME ALL AT ONE TIME.

IT'S NOT AN EXPENSE THAT WE'RE TODAY GOING TO WRITE A CHECK FOR X MILLIONS OF DOLLARS AND HAVE IT DONE ALL PLANS ARE GOING TO BE PHASED. OKAY SO I'LL SUMMARIZE ON ON CHAPLAIN STRATEGIC COMMITMENT IS IT AN ALTERNATIVE AN ALTERNATIVE TO KILLING A BRAND EXCELLENCE CAN WE NOT HAVE A SWIMMING POOL IN THIS COMMUNITY? THANK YOU MAYOR. THANK YOU, DAVID. THAT WAS DEEP.

FIRST OF ALL, I'M GOING TO SAY THAT YOU KNOW, THANK YOU FOR FOR THE WORK THAT'S GONE INTO THIS NOT ONLY FROM A STAFF BUT ALSO FROM A PUBLIC COMMENT STANDPOINT BECAUSE THERE WERE SURVEYS HAD BEEN PROVIDED TO HELP US GET TO WHERE WE ARE NOW.

SO IS IMPORTANT TO UNDERSTAND THAT THE COMMUNITY HAS HAD INPUT IN IS BEING PRESENTED

[00:55:03]

THEN TENNIS COURTS WOULD BE DONE. SO THAT PHASING ASPECT IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT TO UNDERSTAND THAT YOU WON'T BE OUT OF OPPORTUNITY TO PLAY AND ALSO SAY THAT YOU KNOW IF WE'RE LOOKING AT HAVING SOMEWHAT OF A STADIUM FOR PICKLEBALL, I'M NOT CERTAIN THAT TAKING TWO COURTS IS THE RIGHT AVENUE. I THINK WE NEED TO LOOK AT MOBILE BLEACHERS THAT CAN BE ROLLED OVER THE COURTS SO THAT WE'RE NOT LOSING THAT CAPACITY . SO THINKING OUTSIDE OF THE BOX A LITTLE BIT, WHAT CAN WE DO? MAYBE IT'S NOT IN THE MIDDLE, YOU KNOW, MAYBE IT'S JUST A LITTLE DIFFERENT UP.

BUT I THINK IT'S IMPORTANT THAT WE HAVE THAT BECAUSE THE GROWTH IS THERE AND WE KNOW THAT IT'S COMING AND I'VE HAD CONVERSATIONS AND WE KNOW THAT PICKLEBALL IS JUST GOING TO CONTINUE TO EXPLODE IN TERMS OF CHAPLIN BEING THE RELIEF FOR ALLEGHENY THAT'S CURRENTLY NOT IN MY IN MY THOUGHT PROCESS PREVIOUSLY IT HAD BEEN YEARS AGO WHEN WE WERE LOOKING AT THAT TRACT TO ADD A FACILITY THERE WITH A WITH A POOL AND HAVE AS A SEPARATE DRIVER FOR YOU KNOW, TO RELIEVE SOME CONGESTION DOWN THERE. YOUR COMMENTS ABOUT A POOL BRING BACK A BIG CONVERSATION THAT'S THAT'S OVER THE PAST AND AND YES ONE PUBLIC POOL IS NOT ENOUGH FOR OUR COMMUNITY AND IN LOOKING AT THE OVERALL PLANNING OF THESE FIVE PARKS IT REALLY INTRODUCE A WHOLE NOTHER ASPECT AND COMPONENT THAT WILL CHANGE THE THOUGHT PROCESS IF IN FACT THAT'S THE DIRECTION WE'RE GOING TO GO WILL TELL YOU THROUY ASSOCIATION WITH THE REC ASSOCIATION THE POOL IS EXTREMELY UTILIZE THAT IT IS PACKED THE NEED FOR ANOTHER FACILITY ON THIS ISLAND HAS BEEN THERE FOR A LONG TIME AND IT IS SOMETHING THAT WE NEED TO HAVE DISCUSSIONS ABOUT IN CLOSING REDOING THESE PARKS HAD BEEN LONG AND COMING BASED OFF OF POPULATION THERE ARE CERTAIN NEEDS THAT ARE REQUIRED BY THE MASTER PLANS.

WE HAVE NOT BEEN KEEPING UP WITH THOSE. IT IS TIME THAT WE DO ACT AND WE MOVE THESE PARKS FORWARD OBVIOUSLY WITH SOME ADJUSTMENTS AND MODIFICATIONS BUT IT IS IMPORTANT THAT WE BRING THAT EXCELLENCE INTO PROGRAMING INTO OUR FACILITIES SO UNDERSTAND THAT AS A COUNCIL WE'RE HERE TO MAKE CERTAIN THAT WE DO THE RIGHT THINGS FOR THE AND THAT WE DO IT IN A PHASING SYSTEM THAT DOES NOT KEEP OUT. SO WITH THAT BEING SAID, I WILL LET Y'ALL THAT THAT WE'RE GOING TO OPEN UP COMMENTS AT THE END TO DISCUSS ALL FIVE OF THESE.

SO NOW WE'RE GOING TO MOVE ON TO THE CROC CROSSING'S MASTER PLAN.

MAYOR, IF I MAY HAVE A OF YEAH IF I CAN JUST FOLLOW UP ON A COUPLE OF COMMENTS THAT WERE MADE JUST FOR CLARIFICATION IT THANK YOU. YES, THAT A FARLEY AREA GETS HEAVILY FISHED. I WALK EVERY DAY NOT ONLY THE BEACH BUT CHAPMAN PARK SINGLETON AREA AND THERE IS FISHING ALMOST EVERY SINGLE DAY ALL DIFFERENT TIMES OF THE DAY.

[01:00:01]

TRY TO BE BRIEF. I THINK IT'D BE HELPFUL FOR THE STAFF AND OUR CONSULTANT AND I DO APPRECIATE THEIR WORK AND THE WORK OF THE COMMUNITY AS WELL.

CERTAINLY IMPORTANT PARTS OF OUR LIFE HERE, OUR PARKS BUT WHAT I WANT TO SEE AND UNDERSTAND IS PICKLEBALL AND TENNIS AND MAKING SURE THAT WE HAVE THE RIGHT FACILITIES IN THE RIGHT PLACE. AND THAT'S WHY I ASK ABOUT THE SIZE OF THE TRACK ON THE OTHER SIDE OF SINGLETON BEACH ROAD YOU KNOW CAN PUT ALL THE PICKLEBALL THERE AND MOVE THE OTHER THE BASKETBALL COURTS AND THE BEACH OPERATION SOMEWHERE ELSE SOMEWHERE ELSE I DON'T KNOW WHERE ELSE MIGHT BE OR COMPARING IT TO THE MARSHLAND WHICH WE'VE ALSO SEEN SOME PLANS FOR PICKLEBALL AND THERE SO I'D LIKE TO KNOW THE PROS AND CONS OF THOSE OPPORTUNITIES SO WE CAN HAVE PICKLEBALL AND TENNIS. THANK YOU.

THANK YOU YOU I'LL JUST SAY ONE THING THAT I HAD WRITTEN DOWN THAT THAT YOU KNOW, IN LOOKING AT THE SCOPE OF THE LAND, IS IT POSSIBLE TO PUT THE DOG PARK WHERE THE PICKLEBALL COURTS ARE AND TO MOVE THE PICKLEBALL COURTS OVER THAT AREA SO THEY'RE MORE THEY'RE MORE CENTRALIZED. SO JUST A JUST A THOUGHT. BUT THAT BEING SAID, ANY OTHER

[5.b. Crossings Park Master Plan]

ALL RIGHT. RIGHT THERE. THANK YOU SO MUCH.

SO MOVING ON TO CROSSINGS PARK IS ANOTHER ONE OF OUR WELL-LOVED PARKS ON THE ISLAND.

IT OPENED IN THE MID-NINETIES 9697 AND ACTUALLY WAS THE FIRST RECREATION FACILITY PARK ON THE ISLAND. OTHER THAN OUR BEACH PARKS. SO IT WAS A VERY EXCITING OPPORTUNITY THE TOWN TO BUILD THIS PARK AND KIND OF USHER IN THE KIND OF RECREATION FACILITY COMMUNITY PARKS THAT WE HAVE ON THE ISLAND. SO THE PARKS AND REC MASTER PLAN FOR THIS PARK REC CONSOLIDATING BASEBALL SOFTBALL FIELDS HERE AND THAT IS BECAUSE ELSEWHERE ON THE ISLAND WE HAVE THREE FIELDS AT BARKER THAT UP TO UNTIL RECENTLY BEEN MANAGED BY THE COUNTY AND THEN ONE BALL FIELD AT CHAPLIN THAT ARE UNDERUTILIZED AND SO THE DESIRE WAS TO CONSOLIDATE BASEBALL AND SOFTBALL HERE AND REALLY HONE IN ON THAT OPPORTUNITY BECAUSE

[01:05:05]

AS YOU CAN SEE THERE'S A HUGE GREEN BELOW THE EXISTING BALL FIELDS.

THOSE ARE TRAILS OUR VERY OWN SOFT SURFACE OFF ROAD TRAIL NETWORK THAT A LOT OF FOLKS LOVE TO RUN AND RIDE THEIR BIKES ON AND IT REALLY IS A UNIQUE OPPORTUNITY TO ADD TO WHAT WE KNOW TO BE A WONDERFUL PATHWAY AND TRAILS NETWORK ON THE ENTIRE ISLAND.

SO IT'S INVESTMENT IN NOT ONLY SPORTS FACILITIES FOR THE ISLAND BUT AGAIN MEETING THAT BALANCE OF HAVING AND PROVIDING FOR OUR COMMUNITY. SO YOU'LL SEE WHERE WE AGAIN WE PUT IN A ANOTHER CAPACITY STUDY DONE BY A PREVIOUS TEAM AND THE IDEA FOR THAT IS TO PRESERVE THE LANDSCAPE PRESERVE NATURE THAT'S HERE, HONOR THE INTEREST ,THE USE OF THE TRAILS THAT ARE ALLOWED THAT WE ARE ABLE TO DO THE PRESERVED AREA TO REALLY EXPAND ON WHAT WE OFFER IN THE BRISTOL SPORTS ARENA IN KIND OF OUR EXTREME SPORTS COMMUNITY WE LIKE TO SAY WITH THE SKATE PARK AND THE ARENA THERE DEVELOP GATEWAYS IN THE PARK AGAIN THAT'S THAT'S A COMMON THEME HERE AND LOOKING AT HELMSMAN WAY AS BEING ROADWAY THROUGH THE PARK AND EMBRACE CONTINUING TO EMBRACE THOSE NATURAL RESOURCES AND THEN USING THE OPPORTUNITY TO IMPROVE OUR SPORTS FACILITIES FOR THE COMMUNITY. SO MR. KINSMAN THANK YOU.

TAYLOR AS SUGGESTED PREVIOUSLY WE'VE GOT EXISTING FACILITIES IN THE PARK AND THEN AN AMENDED PROGRAM OF FACILITIES THAT WE WANT TO TO ACCOMMODATE IN THE PARK THAT IS TO CONSOLIDATE ALL THE BALL FIELDS ON THE ISLAND FOR THAT LEAGUE PLAY IN ONE CENTRAL LOCATION ADD A 210 FOOT BALL FIELD, EXPAND TO 300 FEET. THE LARGER FIELD TO THE EXTENT POSSIBLE WE'VE GOT VERY SENSITIVE ENVIRONMENTAL AS WE ALL KNOW THERE WE ARE NOT VIOLATING THOSE REPLACE THE CONCESSION IMPLORES IN DOG PARK CREATE NEW DESTINATION PLAYGROUND NEW SKATE PARK FACILITIES AT THE BRISTOL ADD A CHAMPIONS WALK IN A COVERING TO THE SPORTS ARENA SO THAT'S A THAT'S A LOT OF PROGRAM IN AN AREA AS YOU CAN SQUINT YOUR EYE AND SEE DOESN'T HAVE MUCH BLUE SPACE TO IT RIGHT THAT THE GREEN ENVIRONMENTAL AREA IS IS JUST THAT MEANT TO STAY PASSIVE AND NATURAL FOR BOTH FLORA AND FAUNA NEIGHBORHOOD AMENITIES ARE IN THE BROWN TONES AGAIN TAYLOR MENTIONED THIS CHAMPIONS WALK THERE'S DESTINATION PLAYGROUND THERE'S ALSO DOG PARK FACILITIES THAT WILL BE USED BY THE NEIGHBORS ADJACENT NOT JUST ISLAND WIDE FOLKS AND THEN THE ACTIVE PLAY OF THE FIELDS AGAIN THE CONCEPT PLAN AS A WHOLE I'LL SPEAK TO SOME OF THE SYSTEMS AND DETAIL AND THEN COME BACK TO THAT THE EXISTING CIRCULATION TAYLOR MADE MENTION OF HELMSMAN BEING THE DESIRE IS FOR IT TO BE MORE OF A PARKWAY A DRIVE THROUGH THE PARK. THERE'S ACCESS TO THE BRISTOL OFFER BOTH ARROW AND HELMSMAN THE HAGUE CIRCLE INTERSECTION THAT HELMSMAN WAY IS LESS THAN OPTIMUM I'LL SAY IN TERMS OF VISIBILITY AND SAFETY AS WE ENTER AND EXIT THERE AND WE'RE LOOKING TO IMPROVE THAT FOR A NUMBER OF REASONS THE LEAST OF WHICH IS THE SAFETY ASPECTS. SO WE'RE PROPOSING FIRST OFF THAT THAT HAEG POINT INTERSECTION IS IMPROVED AND THE CIRCLE WHICH QUITE FRANKLY HOLD THE SAME UTILITY AS OUR OTHER DRIVING OUR OTHER CIRCLES AND ROUNDABOUTS ON THE ISLAND WE CAN BYPASS THAT WITH ACCESS TO THE EMBARKATION AND CAPTURE BACK SOME OPEN SPACE RIGHT NOW THAT CIRCLE IS USED AS DE FACTO PARKING SOME OF THE BUSIER TIMES IN THE IN THE PARK ENHANCE THE STREETSCAPES TO GIVE US A SENSE OF ARRIVAL AGAIN ALMOST HAVE TO DISCOVER THIS PARK THAT'S NEWS AND THAT'S BAD NEWS BUT WE'VE GOT SAFETY ISSUES RELATIVE TO TURNING AND VEHICLES PEDESTRIANS AND BICYCLISTS ACCESSING THE PARK AS WELL.

SO WE'RE LOOKING TO BRING INTUITIVE INTERSECTIONS AND CLEAR PATHS OF VEHICLE TRAVEL

[01:10:03]

AGAIN LET'S CELEBRATE THOSE FOLKS EVEN THE UMPIRES WILL EVEN CELEBRATE THE UMPIRES BUT TELL THE STORY OF THE HISTORY SOFTBALL AND BASEBALL IN THE ISLAND AND TAKE ADVANTAGE THOSE MAGNIFICENT VIEWS TO LAGOON AND AND INTO THE WETLANDS THE EXISTING BALL DIAMONDS THERE'S TWO 210 FOOT LIONS IN 1 TO 80. WE'RE LOOKING TO ADD TWO MORE TO TEN FIELDS AND EXPAND TO 82 A 300 FOOT OUT FIELD FENCE LINE AGAIN STAYING OUT OF THE SENSITIVE AREAS, WORKING WITHIN WHAT MOTHER NATURE HAS HAS GIVEN US AND ALL THE FULL ACCORD AMOUNTS THAT GO ALONG.

WHAT IS A BEST IN CLASS FIELD SPORT PARK BENCHES, BATTING CAGES, SOFT TOSS AREAS OF COVERED DUGOUTS BLEACHERS, FAN CONVENIENCES, POWER OUTLETS EVERYTHING THAT ALLOWS US TO TAKE FULL ADVANTAGE OF WHAT BEST IN CLASS FACILITIES AND IF I CAN JUST JUMP IN HERE YOU'LL SEE ON THE SCREEN AND MUCH LIKE TALKED ABOUT IT CHAPLIN AN OPPORTUNITY FOR ARTIFICIAL TURF AND NATURAL TURF THOSE ARE DECISIONS THAT WILL COME IN THE NEXT PHASE YOU KNOW AS WE DRILL DOWN INTO THAT IT'S A DESIRE FROM USERS TO HAVE MORE FLEXIBILITY BUT WE ALSO WANT TO BALANCE FROM AN ENVIRONMENTAL STANDPOINT. SO HERE WE ARE SHOWING AN OPPORTUNITY IT COULD BE A COUPLE OF IT COULD BE ALL NATURAL, IT COULD BE ARTIFICIAL BUT THOSE ARE DETAILS THAT WILL BE FINE TUNED. WE MOVE THROUGH THE DESIGN PROCESS. THANKS, JENNIFER. I THAT AND COUNCILMAN STANFORD

[01:15:04]

THE ROAD THESE FIELDS WILL BE FENCED THERE'S FLEXIBLE OUTDOOR AREAS FOR MISCELLANEOUS RECREATION. THERE'S INTUITIVE PARKING. WE'VE GOT ORTHOGONAL AS THEY SAY PARKING AISLES SO PEOPLE CAN PARK PARK AND WALK NO BLIND SPOTS WITHIN THAT PARKING THOSE PARKING LOTS YOU ENTER OFF OF HEDGES POINT YOU COME TO A DECISION PLACE, YOU MOVE TO A DROP OFF AREA, YOU GO TO YOUR PARKING SPACE AND INCREASED THE PARKING WITHIN THIS PARK BY 40%. AND THAT ALSO WE'VE GOT SOME ON ON STREET ON WHAT USED TO BE A STREET WITH CIRCLE IN THIS PROPOSAL BECOMES A PRIVATE PARK AND IT'S GOT ON STREET PARKING SO WE CAN DRIVE TO THIS PARK WITH OUR WITH OUR PUPS AND GET OUT AND UTILIZE THE PARK.

IT ISN'T JUST FOR THOSE THAT ARE TAKING ADVANTAGE OF THE OTHER PARK FACILITIES SO THE SUPPORTING AMENITIES AGAIN THE DOG PARK GOT A FACILITY IN THAT CIRCLE WILL ACCOMMODATE AND STILL STILL WALK THE DOGS IT WERE DESTINATION PLAYGROUND PAVILION AND COMFORT STATIONS I THINK THIS NEIGHBORHOOD PARK AND THE DESTINATION PLAYGROUND WITHIN IT CAN REFLECT THAT BEAUTIFUL THAT IS DIFFERENT THAN OTHER PLACES BUT LET'S BRING SOME INDIVIDUAL PERSONALITY TO THIS PLAY AREA THE PARK AS TAYLOR HAD SUGGESTED WE'VE GOT NATURAL TRAILS WE'VE GOT PAVED PATHS. THE DOG PARK CERTAINLY BE CONTROLLED AND FENCED AND THEN FLEXIBLE SPACE FOR MISCELLANEOUS PLAY AND NEIGHBORHOOD ACTIVITIES.

WE'VE GOT A SOMEWHAT TORTURED CHANNEL THROUGH THE PARK. WE'RE PROPOSING THAT WE RESTORE IT BACK TO ITS NATURAL STREAM CONDITION REPAIR THAT RIPARIAN BUFFER RESTORE AND PROTECT THE WETLANDS TO THE EXTENT POSSIBLE AND LET'S CELEBRATE THAT DRAINAGE FACILITY, THAT STREAM CORRIDOR THAT ACTS AS A DRAINAGE FACILITY THROUGH THE PARK AS A PARK FEATURE ON THE BRISTOL SIDE THINGS WILL COVER THE THE ARENA WE'RE CLOSING THE CURB CUT OFF OF ARROW ROAD AND HAVING SINGLE CURB CUT INTO THE PARKING LOT OFF OF HELMSMAN WE THINK THAT'S A MUCH SAFER CONDITION AREA ROAD MOVES A FAIR AMOUNT OF . THAT BEING SAID WE'RE ALSO LOOKING TO RAISE THE CROSSWALKS AT ARROW ROAD TO CREDENCE TO THE PEDESTRIAN VERSUS THE VEHICLE AND AND REINFORCE THE FACT THAT ARROW ROAD A IS A DRIVEWAY THROUGH A PARK AS IS HELMSMAN. SO WE'RE LOOKING TO BRING A LITTLE BIT OF CIVILITY TO THAT AS WELL AND MAKE FOR THOSE SAFE CROSSINGS AGAIN THE THE ARCHITECTURE OF THE PLACE IMPORTANT AS STATED FOR FOR CHAPLIN AS PUT ON A COVER AND ADD OTHER PARK FACILITIES WE THINK THE ARCHITECTURAL CHARACTER IS IMPORTANT THAT DOESN'T NECESSARILY TO READ AS EXPENSIVE IT NEEDS TO READ AS APPROPRIATE RIGHT MATERIALS FORMS AND CHARACTER OPPORTUNITY FOR MOUNTAIN BIKE TRAILS NATURAL NATURE AND ALSO THE SKATE PARK IN AN IMPROVED FASHION RESTROOMS 61 PARKING SPACES AT THE SKATE PARK AND, A PICNIC PAVILION ON THE LAGOON AND 55 SPACES AVAILABLE FOR TRAILHEAD PARKING LOT. SO YOU CAN SEE THAT WE'VE DISTRIBUTED PARKING THROUGHOUT PARK WITH THERE'S DIFFERENT AMENITIES IN VARIOUS PLACES IN THE PARK NOT JUST ACTIVE BALL PLAYING PERSPECTIVE SKETCH LOOKING DOWN ON THAT CHAMPIONS PLAZA WITH THE PARKING TO THE LEFT AND THE CHAMPIONS WALK I THINK WE'VE STAFF AND OURSELVES HAVE ENVISIONED THAT THIS IS A HIGHLY PEOPLE PLACE TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THE OF THE ENVIRONMENT SWINGS AND BENCHES PLACES FOR CELEBRATIONS SHADES TO TELL THE STORY OF SOFTBALL AND IN ON THE ISLAND AND IN THE LOW COUNTRY SO IT COULD BE A TREMENDOUS ASSET TO NEIGHBORHOOD CONDITIONS AND IS THE CONCEPT AS THE WHOLE AWESOME THANK YOU BRING IT TO

[01:20:07]

THANK YOU OKAY? HEY, GLENNA, I'LL GO TO YOU NEXT.

DID YOU GET MESSED UP OFF OF MUTE? CAN YOU HEAR ME ALL RIGHT? YES, SIR. AMAL THERE. YES, YOU ARE.

ALL RIGHT, SO EXCUSE ME. I AM ANOTHER VERY APPROACH TO REALLY EXPAND, USE AND SPECIALIZE THE USE OF OUR FIRST ORDER. I THINK IT'S OUTSTANDING.

I THINK THE ROAD AND ACCESS IMPROVEMENTS MAKE A LOT OF SENSE MAKE IT MORE OF A CLIENT FEEL OR A HELMSMAN CERTAINLY MAKES A LOT OF SENSE .

I THINK ONE OF THE MAJOR THINGS THAT PEOPLE DON'T FULLY UNDERSTAND AND APPRECIATE FOR SOME TIME IS THE EXPANDED BANKING BECAUSE I KNOW YOU AND ANY BASEBALL MAJOR IT'S HARD TO FIND A BARGAIN SPANISH DOWN THERE. CONGRATULATIONS TO YOU AND THE TEAM FOR THAT EXPANSION THERE. FRANKLY I HAVE NOT PAID ANY ATTENTION TO THE GETTING DOWN OFF OF OUR ROAD AND TAKING ADVANTAGE OF THAT MAKES SOME SENSE SO AND AS WE DO SO SAFELY DEALING WITH OUR FRIENDS FORTUNATELY DOWN THERE ENJOYING THAT LAGOON I DO SEE ALL THAT'S HAPPENED HERE AS EXPANSION OF THE OPPORTUNITIES FOR SPORTS AND RECREATION ON THE ISLAND AND I SUPPORT IT MOVING FORWARD. THANK YOU.

THANK YOU, GLEN PATSY. YES, THANK YOU. JUST LOOKING AT MY NOTES I'M GLAD MR. ALFORD ASKED ABOUT THE PHASING. I WAS GOING TO ASK ABOUT THAT AS WELL, ESPECIALLY SINCE MAYOR REMINDED US THAT WE DON'T HAVE ENOUGH MONEY TO DO ALL THIS AT ONE TIME. THANKS FOR THAT QUESTION. FIRST QUESTION I'VE GOT IS IN MY IS YES I HAVE PLAYED BASEBALL YES I PLAYED SOFTBALL YES I HAVE BIKE THROUGH THIS AREA AS WELL BUT I'M TO FIGURE OUT THE OTHER THING THAT I'VE DONE IN THIS PARK IS THAT THERE IS OPEN FIELD. IT'S IT'S PARALLEL TO WHERE THE SOCCER FIELDS ARE NOW.

IT HAS LIGHTING. I WORKED OUT WITH MY TRAINER THERE SO THAT'S WHERE I KNOW WHERE IT'S KIND OF HIDDEN BACK IN THERE. BUT I'M TRYING TO FIGURE OUT ON THE MAP I'VE ALSO PULLED UP THE AERIAL TO FIGURE OUT ON THE MAP IS THAT WHERE THE DESTINATION PLAYGROUND IS TO BE? I COULDN'T QUITE SORT THAT OUT. IT'S KIND OF WHERE ONE OF THOSE NEW BALL FIELDS IS. THAT'S THAT'S THE EXACT AREA IT'S ACTUALLY NO I KNOW WHERE THE THE NEW PLAYING BALL FIELDS THAT'S WHERE THE SOCCER AREA IS BUT ON THE OTHER SIDE THERE'S A ROAD THAT GOES BACK IN THERE WHERE THERE'S PARKING AND THEN THERE'S A BIG OPEN MEADOW NICELY THAT'S GOT LIGHTS ON EITHER SIDE OF IT. AND SO THAT'S WHAT I WAS TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHAT THE USE OF THAT IS PLANNED TO BE. THE PROPOSAL IS FOR THE THE

[01:25:01]

ALL RIGHT. IT LOOKS LIKE THE ROAD STRUCTURE AND PARKING AREA WOULD CHANGE ON PARKING WOULD CHANGE. GOTCHA.

OKAY, KRYSTAL, WOULD YOU MIND PULLING THAT PLAN UP FOR US? NO, THAT'S AREA I WAS TRYING TO FIGURE OUT IT LIKE SO THAT'S PART OF THE EQUATION WITH BOTH THE SOCCER IMPROVEMENTS AT CHAPLIN AND THEN BARKER FIELD TALKING ABOUT THOSE RECTANGULAR MULTI-USE FIELDS BECAUSE I DO PLAY LACROSSE THERE AND WE HAD A GREAT MEETING WITH ISLAND REC LAST WEEK TALKING ABOUT HOW THEY USE ALL OF THE DIFFERENT FIELDS WITHIN OUR SYSTEM AND THAT DISPLACING BUILDING THOSE BASEBALL FIELDS WERE DISPLACING A USE THAT NEEDS TO BE ACCOMMODATED SOMEWHERE ELSE.

RIGHT. AND THERE'S ALREADY LARGE LIGHTS THERE SO OKAY.

ALL RIGHT. AND I THINK I HEARD A 300 300 BASEBALL FIELD AND THE OTHER 4 TO 10. IS THAT RIGHT? I KNOW THERE WAS A SLIDE THERE SHOWN HERE. WE'RE OPTIMISTIC THAT ONE OF THEM THE TOP RIGHT WE MIGHT BE ABLE TO MAKE A LITTLE BIT BIGGER. WE'RE WORKING WITH THE CORPS OF ENGINEERS ON THAT THE RED DASHED LINE THAT WAS MITIGATE AN AREA BUT IS NOT WHERE TO SEE IF WE CAN EXPAND ONE OF THOSE A LITTLE BIT BIGGER YEAH Z ACCOUNT FOR WHEN I HIT A HOME RUN AND I'M BACK THERE LOOKING FOR THE BALL OKAY. YEAH TALL FENCES AND NETS FOR WHEN YOU GET UP TO THAT YOU GOT IT AND THEN THINKING OF YOU KNOW THE FOLKS INVOLVED IN OUR COMMUNITY IN BASEBALL AND SOFTBALL I WANT TO MAKE SURE WE HAVE EQUAL TIME FOR FOR BOTH SPORTS OF ADVOCATE I HAVE FAMILY MEMBERS WHO PLAYED BOTH SPORTS AND ADVOCATED PRO AND CON FOR BOTH KINDS OF FIELDS. SO WE WANT TO MAKE SURE WE HAVE THAT KIND OF OPPORTUNITY AND THEN BEEN TO A LOT OF WE HAVE NEPHEW WHO'S 13 A REALLY GREAT RIGHT HAND PITCHER ANYBODY WANT TO RECRUIT HIM REALLY GOOD. HE'S GOING TO BE A FRESHMAN NEXT YEAR IN HIGH SCHOOL APPLY TO COOPERSTOWN LAST SUMMER SO THERE'S MY ADVERTISEMENT FOR HIM ANYHOW BUT HAVING BEEN SOME OF THE TRAVEL BALL FIELDS YOU KNOW THEY ATTRACT A LOT OF PEOPLE SO I THINK WE NEED SOMETHING THAT'S A GOOD FACILITY LOCAL COMPETITION IN THE AREA WITHOUT OVERWHELMING THE SPACE AND AND I DON'T KNOW WHAT THE AVERAGE NUMBER OF FIELDS MIGHT BE FOR SOME OF THOSE TRAVEL SITES AND THOSE SITES INCLUDE BOTH BASEBALL AND SOFTBALL FIELDS.

SO JUST YOU KNOW, I KNOW WE'VE HAD A LOT OF COMMUNITY COLLABORATION SO I LOOK TO THE COMMUNITY BECAUSE I SURE DON'T KNOW A LOT ABOUT WHAT TO DO OTHER THAN I LOVE TO PLAY SO BUT THOSE ARE KIND OF THE QUESTIONS AND COMMENTS I WAS GLAD TO HEAR THAT WE'RE RETURNING SOME OF THE NATURAL DRAINAGE TO THAT AREA THAT HELPS ADDRESS SOME OF MY STORMWATER CONCERNS. WE LOOK AT RENOVATING OF OUR PARKS FACILITIES AND MAYOR I THINK THAT'S IT FOR NOW. OKAY. THANK YOU, TONY.

THANK YOU, MAYOR. THIS IS A GREAT IMPROVEMENT TO THIS PARK AREA.

I AM ANXIOUS TO HEAR FROM DALEY QUITE FRANKLY HIS THOUGHTS. THERE ARE SOME I KNOW THAT HE MIGHT HAVE AND. I'M LISTENING ATTENTIVELY TO THOSE ONE THAT I HAVE HAVE AS LONG AS WE'RE TELLING STORIES I HAVE THREE CHILDREN WHO PLAYED THREE SPORTS FOR FOUR YEARS.

THAT'S 36 VARSITY LETTERS. THEY ALSO IN COLLEGE SO THEY'VE PLAYED ON JOE BALL AND WE'VE TRAVELED THE COUNTRY AND OUTSIDE THE COUNTRY PLAYING BALL AND I TOO HAVE SEEN FACILITIES THAT ARE AMAZING AND ACCOMMODATE ALL TYPES OF LEVEL OF PLAY IN TOURNAMENT AND I'M HOPING THAT WITHIN THIS SYSTEM THAT THOSE WHO ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR OUR YOUTH ON THE ISLAND ARE ADDRESSING THOSE NEEDS AND OFFERING AN OPPORTUNITY FOR FAMILIES TO TRAVEL HERE TO HILTON HEAD FOR THOSE TYPES OF TOURNAMENTS SO I'LL LISTEN TO THOSE WHO ARE MORE EXPERT ON THAT WITH TO OUR AREA I HAVE A QUESTION AS TO WHAT A RAISED CROSSWALK IT IS A CROSSWALK WHERE THE AUTOMOBILES RISE TO WHAT IS A SIDEWALK GRADE AS OPPOSED TO PEDESTRIAN STEPPING DOWN TO THE STREET GRADE. IT IS SOME PEOPLE CALL TRAFFIC TABLES IN OTHER PLACES IT'S GOT A TRANSITION THAT CAUSES THE AUTOMOBILE TO SLOW DOWN AND GIVE GIVE PRESIDENT TO THE PEDESTRIANS. THANK YOU. AND I GUESS WITH ALL OF THAT

[01:30:01]

SO THERE'S A TON OF FLEXIBILITY THESE DAYS THAT WE SHOULD BUILD IN TO THIS TO ACCOMMODATE THOSE DIFFERENT BUT THESE ARE ALL GRASS AND FIELDS ON THIS GRAPHIC ON THIS.

YES BUT FROM A DETAIL STANDPOINT I DON'T THINK THAT'S WHAT WE WOULD END UP WITH.

AND YOU MENTIONED EXPERTS AND WE HAVE TALKED TO JUG CARSTENS IS THE PRESIDENT I'VE HELPED HER BASEBALL ASSOCIATION EMAIL FROM HIM THIS BEING A HUGE IMPROVEMENT OVER JOY BY THE PROSPECT HE HAS SOME SUGGESTIONS FOR ARTIFICIAL TURF THEY'D RATHER SEE EVERYTHING THAT WAY LED LIGHTS NATURAL GRASS PRACTICE AREAS LOVE THE NEW TRAINING FACILITY YOU KNOW SO WE ARE WORKING CLOSELY AND A LOT OF THOSE COMPONENTS ARE DETAILS THAT AS WE MOVE BUT THE OTHER COMMENT I JUST WANTED TO MAKE IS I HAVEN'T BEEN CHIMING IN TO ADDRESS EVERY COMMENT BECAUSE IN THE INTEREST OF TIME I REALLY WANT TO HEAR FROM YOU ALL ABOUT WHAT WE PLAN DO IS TAKE ALL OF YOUR COMMENTS AND THEN ANSWER YOUR QUESTIONS AND PUT TOGETHER A SUMMARY THAT WE WILL GET TO YOU BEFORE WE'RE BACK. ASKING FOR APPROVAL SO IF THERE'S SOMETHING REALLY URGENT OR EVERYBODY'S ASKING THE SAME THING WE'LL ADDRESS IT.

BUT WE'RE TAKING REALLY GOOD NOTES AND UNLESS THERE'S SOMETHING SUPER TIME SENSITIVE WE ADDRESS IT AFTER THIS MEETING. I LOVE THE WAY THAT THE YOUTH SPORTS ARE BEING ADDRESSED ON THE ISLAND THROUGH THESE PARKS .

THANK YOU. ALL RIGHT, ALEX. I LIKE IT.

I LOVE IT. I AM I AM HUNG UP ON THE NAME ON THIS ONE.

OKAY. I DEFINITELY APPRECIATE THE ARENA WITH THE BRISTOL FAMILY BEING A HUGE PHILANTHROPIST HERE ON HILTON HEAD. BUT THE CROSSING PART I'M STRUGGLING WITH BECAUSE I CAN'T FIGURE OUT WHY IT'S CALLED CROSSINGS EXCEPT FOR THE CROSS ALLEN PARKWAY CLOSE TO IT DON'T KNOW THERE'S NOT A LOT OF RELEVANCE OR HISTORY THERE AND FOR THOSE THAT DON'T KNOW THE ONCE UPON A TIME LONG LONG TIME AGO THERE WAS ONLY ONE BASEBALL DIAMOND FIELD ON HILTON IN THE ACTUALLY IN MITCHELL VILLE AND THEN THE BEAT CITY ROAD IT'S GOT A BLUE JAY FIELD NOW HERE IF I'M THIS CORRECTLY WE'RE GOING TO HAVE FIVE BASEBALL DIAMONDS IN ONE SPOT. HUGE, HUGE ACCOMPLISHMENT.

I THINK WE'VE GOT A GRAND OPPORTUNITY HERE TO DOVE INTO OUR HISTORY OF BASEBALL AND FIND A BETTER NAME FOR THIS PLACE VERSUS GROWTH. OKAY.

THOSE ARE MY COMMON WISDOM HERE. ALL RIGHT.

THANK YOU, DAVID. I ALWAYS APPRECIATE ALEX'S PERSPECTIVE BECAUSE.

IT'S USUALLY VERY DIFFERENT THAN MINE SO IT'S GOOD HAVE THAT AND TO CONTEMPLATE AS WELL AND I DO APPRECIATE THAT SUGGESTION. A COUPLE OF THINGS JUST THIS ONE DOESN'T RISE TO THE LEVEL OF IMPORTANCE AS DOES IN MY MIND.

I THINK IT'S GOING IN THE RIGHT . I HAVE A COUPLE OF QUESTIONS THOUGH ARE THE SMALLER FIELDS ONLY GOOD FOR DIXIE BASEBALL OR LITTLE LEAGUE WHO WHAT WHO ARE WE ACCOMMODATING WITH THIS PLAN? I THINK WITH THIS PLAN ESPECIALLY WITH THE 300 FOOT FIELD AND IF WE CAN GET ANOTHER ONE IN THE 280 RANGE, WE'RE ACCOMMODATING EVERYONE THAT WOULD WANT TO PLAY OR SOFTBALL ON THE ISLAND TO TEN IS SMALL FOUR AS THE BOYS GET OLDER AND YOU KNOW THEY WANT TO GET TO THAT LITTLE BIT BIGGER BIGGER

[01:35:02]

MY QUESTION I APPRECIATE THAT LITTLE BIT OF A RED FLAG FOR ME ON THAT SIDE OF THE ROAD DRIVE THAT ROAD AREA ROAD FREQUENTLY IT WHERE THAT AGAIN THIS IS A DETAIL PROBABLY WILL CHANGE I'M JUST GOING TO PUT A RED FLAG IN THE GROUND SAYING THAT THAT'S PROBABLY A BAD PLACE FOR A SAFETY A PARKING LOT SO ON AND SO FORTH AND I PRESUME NO WAY THAT THE PUMP TRACK CAN BE OVER IN THE NATURAL PARK AREA THAT'S OFF LIMITS. OKAY.

THE ONE THE ONE OVERRIDING COMMENT I'LL MAKE FOR THIS ONE HAS TO DO WITH EDGE CONDITIONS WHETHER WE'RE TALKING ABOUT THE MARSH, A LAGOON, THE OCEAN OR A STREET OUR EDGE CONDITIONS DEFINE WHAT THIS COMMUNITY LOOKS LIKE TO THE MAJORITY OF THE PEOPLE DRIVING ARE CIRCULATED OUR COMMUNITY SO WHEN I SEE PATHWAYS PALMETTO BAY ROAD I WOULD LIKE TO ADD I THINK THAT THAT IS AN OPPORTUNITY A NATURAL AREA TO BE PRESERVED AND ALSO TO AVOID CLEAR VIEWS TO THE PARK. WHAT WHAT WE WHAT WE ARE SEEING ON THE ISLAND IS THAT WE ARE TRANSITIONING FROM A NATURAL ENVIRONMENT TO A CIVILIZED ENVIRONMENT AND I THINK WE HAVE TO BE VERY CAREFUL OF THAT. AND SO ANY TIME THAT WE ARE PREPARING PUBLIC LANDS AGAINST ROADS OR MARSHES, I THINK WE HAVE TO IN MIND THAT THE NATURAL PALETTE OF VEGETATION IS IMPORTANT TO THIS COMMUNITY AND TO ITS WILDLIFE SO I JUST THAT THAT WHOLE STRETCH OF GROUND IN MIND HAS TO BE CAREFULLY MAINTAINED AS A NATURAL AREA.

THANK YOU. ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU.

THANK YOU FOR ALL YOUR COMMENTS . FOR THOSE OF YOU ALL THAT DON'T KNOW THIS PARK WAS GENERATED BY THE PEOPLE OF THE COMMUNITY PEOPLE FOR PARKS WAS FORMED TO MAKE CERTAIN THIS PARK HAPPENED FOR THE CHILDREN AND THE RESIDENTS OF OUR SO KEEP THAT IN MIND AS WE'RE GOING FORWARD IT IT HAS A REALLY IMPORTANT ROLE IN PARKS AND RECREATION ON HILTON HEAD SOME OF MY COMMENTS I LOVE TO SEE THAT WE FINALLY GOT SOME EXPANSION ON BASEBALL IS LONG OVERDUE. WE YOU KNOW I'M NOT AN EXPERT WITHIN BASEBALL.

IT'S NOT ONE OF MY SPORTS SO I'M GOING TO RELY ON THE OTHERS TO MAKE CERTAIN THAT WE'RE BUILDING NEEDED FOR THIS COMMUNITY TO MAKE CERTAIN THAT THAT OUR DIXIE YOUTH ALL THAT ALL THE TEAMS HAVE THE RIGHT FACILITIES. YOU KNOW, WE'VE HAD SOME GREAT, GREAT TEAMS COME THROUGH, YOU KNOW, DIXIE YOUTH CHAMPIONSHIP AND OTHERS THAT HAVE GONE ON FURTHER BUT WE'RE NOT FURTHER BUT CLOSE. WE'VE GOT HAVE A FACILITY THAT MEETS THOSE NEEDS AND AS WE AS WE ABOUT DEMOGRAPHICS ON HILTON HEAD WE'VE GOT TO HAVE THESE ASSETS ASSETS IN PLACE TO MAKE CERTAIN THAT THOSE FAMILIES MOVING IN WANT TO BE HERE WITH THEIR YOUNG CHILDREN AND BRING THEM IN. SO THIS IS ONE OF THE ONE OF THE GOALS OF DRIVING THAT YOUNGER DEMOGRAPHIC HERE. I AGREE WITH DAVID THAT THAT PARKING LOT NEXT TO THE PUMP TRACK WOULD I RECOMMEND MOVING THAT TOO THAT WAS ONE OF MY NOTES. I LOVE TO SEE THAT ON HERE BECAUSE IT'S SUCH A FUN THING FOR THESE KIDS TO DO. I BELIEVE THEY'RE BUILDING ONE IN BLUFFTON SO IT'S REALLY NICE TO SEE THIS THE BRISTOL SPORTS ARENA HAVING THAT COVERED LONG OVERDUE.

THERE'S BEEN A LOT OF PLAY THAT HAS NOT HAPPENED ON THAT BECAUSE YOU KNOW, SOME WEATHER CONDITIONS AND I'D LOVE TO SEE ,YOU KNOW, AT THE SKATE PARK A LOT OF FOAM AND RUBBER BECAUSE THAT'S WHERE MY SON BROKE HIS COLLARBONE. BUT BUT BUT IT'S NICE TO SEE THAT BEING MOVED AND BEING AN IN-GROUND CONCRETE SERVICE BECAUSE IT UP TO THE LEVELS OF WHAT THESE KIDS EXPECT IN THE MOVE IN THE PARKING LOT THERE IS GREAT I THINK IT'S A

[01:40:02]

AND IF THERE'S A TO SQUEEZE YOU KNOW, WITHOUT WITHOUT OVER INCUMBENCY THE PROPERTY YOU KNOW LET'S LET'S DO THAT BECAUSE IT'S NEEDED AND ALEX YOU KNOW THE NAMING SIDE OF IT I AGREE THAT WE NEED TO TAKE A LOOK AT THAT BUT I WILL ASK THAT THE ONE FIELD DOES REMAIN IN MY FATHER'S NAME AS IT HAS BEEN. SO I THINK IT'S GREAT, YOU KNOW

[5.c. Islanders Beach Park Master Plan]

SO TAYLOR IS STILL THE PROJECT MANAGER HERE IF YOU'LL LEAD OFF ISLANDERS LAST TIME YOU GUYS GET TO HEAR FROM ME TODAY. BUT LAST YEAR WE STARTED WORK ON THIS PARK WITH THE ADDITION OF AN ACCESSIBLE COVERED OVERLOOK PAVILION THE BEAUTIFUL ADDITION TO THE PARK AND IT IS SOMETHING THAT WE HOPE TO REPLICATE AT SOME OF OUR OTHER BEACH PARKS.

SO WITH THAT WE STARTED OUT BY LOOKING AT THIS PARK TO ADDRESS CONCERNS SAFE ACCESS IN STORMWATER DRAINAGE. SO IF YOU VISITED THIS PARK WHICH IT'S ONE OF MY FAVORITE BEACH PARKS ON THE ISLAND AND AS A RESIDENT WHERE MY HUSBAND AND I AND OUR FAMILY GO REGULARLY BUT WE KNOW THAT THERE ARE CHALLENGES HERE IT IS IT COMPLETED AND OPENED IN 1999. SO IT IS AGAIN BEEN US FOR A WHILE AND HAS BEEN WELL LOVED SO THOSE KIND OF DISCUSSIONS AROUND PARKING AND SAFETY AND DRAINAGE KIND OF BROADENED INTO LOOKING AT OTHER OPPORTUNITIES FOR PARK TO IMPROVE IT OVERALL WITH AMENITIES THAT INCLUDE THE PLAYGROUND OTHER ACCESS ACCESS THINGS IN THE PARK SO WITH THAT BRIAN FROM WITMER JONES KEEFER IS WITH US AND THIS IS HE IS THE LANDSCAPE ARCHITECTURE AND PLANNING FIRM WHO'S BEEN WORKING WITH US ON THIS PARK. THANK YOU, BRIAN. ALL RIGHT.

I'LL START BY SAYING I'M EXCITED TO WORK WITH THE TOWN MAYOR, COUNCIL STAFF AND ALL YOU RESIDENTS. I A RESIDENT I'VE BEEN A RESIDENT FOR 23 YEARS SO I HAVE A VESTED INTEREST IN THESE PARKS IN IRAQ. I'M STARTING WITH THE ISLANDERS BECAUSE I RIDE MY GOLF CART TO THIS ONE. I'M THAT CLOSE.

SO THIS IS THE ONE THAT PROBABLY HITS HOME MOST TO ME IT'S ARE WE CLICK AND IT'S HERE WITH ME. SEC SEEMED TO BE HAVING A CLICKER ISSUE TODAY BUT IT WASN'T JUST ME. WHAT I HAVE TO DO COUCH I JUST SAW YOU ACTUALLY THAT DIDN'T MOVE THERE DID OKAY. GOT IT WORKING NOW I'M GOING TO START WITH EXISTING CONDITIONS OF THE PARK ONE ACCESS OF FIELD AND THAT COMES TO A FOUR WAY INTERSECTION LOOP ROAD THE SOUTH SIDE AND THAT GOES BY EXISTING CELL TOWER AND THEN THERE'S A LOOP ROAD UP TO THE NORTHERN SIDE TO VEHICULAR ACCESS POINTS THAT EACH LOOP AND ALL ALL THE PARKING IS OFF OF THOSE LOOPS EXISTING RESTROOM FACILITY EXISTS PLAYGROUND WE HAVE TWO PAVILIONS TAYLOR SPOKE OF ONE THAT'S OUT BY THE BEACH THAT'S NEWER AND THEN THERE'S AN OLDER ONE THAT'S BY THE EXISTING PLAYGROUND BOARDWALK TO THE BEACH THAT'S YOUR MAIN ACCESS OUT AND THEN WE HAVE THE EXISTING POND THAT'S OVER CLOSER TO THE FARLEY FIELD.

I'M TO KIND OF START WITH THE PIECES AND THEN CIRCLE BACK AND PUT IT ALL TOGETHER FOR YOU.

SO DRAINAGE DRAINAGE IS A SIGNIFICANT PIECE OUT HERE DURING STORM EVENTS ONCE WHERE WE HAVE A GOOD BIT OF RAINFALL WE GET STANDING WATER IN THE PLAYGROUND AREA AROUND THE RESTROOMS SO IT'S LOW OVER THERE SO WE STARTED EXPLORING HOW CAN WE FIX THAT? WE ARE GOING TO ALL RIGHT. STARTING TO TAKE A LOOK AT A PLAN.

THIS PLAN HAS A LARGER POND WHERE THE OLD ONE WAS BECAUSE THE FIRST THING WE DISCOVERED IS THE POND CAN ACCOMMODATE THE STORMWATER OTHER THING IS OUR PIPE TO GET IT OVER THERE DOESN'T CAN'T ACCOMMODATE EITHER. SO BY CREATING A LARGE

[01:45:01]

THE SURFACE IS GOING TO BE ROUGHER. IT'S GOING TO WANT PEOPLE SLOW DOWN AND NOT DRIVE AS FAST THROUGH THE THROUGH THAT DROP OFF.

NEXT THING WE LOOKED AT IS LET'S IMPROVE THE PARKING BY PUTTING THAT POND IN AND CLOSING OFF THAT ROAD WE GAINED ABOUT TEN OR 15 SPACES THERE THAT WE CAN ADD.

WE WALKED AROUND THIS THING, LOOKED WHERE WE HAD ISLANDS WHERE TREES NO LONGER EXIST ONES THAT HAD SMALLER PONDS. SO WE LOOKED FOR WHERE WE COULD ADD OFF OF THE EXISTING ROADS WITHOUT CREATING NEW ROADS AND . THIS PLAN REFLECTS ABOUT 50 VEHICULAR SPOTS. NEXT THING WE LOOKED AT WAS LIKE I MENTIONED, I DROVE MY GOLF CART HERE. I PARK IT IN THE CAR SPOT. I FEEL LIKE I SHOULDN'T BECAUSE IT LOOKS TINY AND I FEEL LIKE I'M TAKING UP A SPOT FOR A CAR SO.

WE HAD A GOLF CART PARKING 25 CART PARKING SO IT'S DEDICATED. IT'LL BE SIGNED IN WOULD ALLOW PEOPLE TO DRIVE THAT WAY PROMOTE IT AND GROW THE VEHICULAR PARKING EXPERIENCE AS WELL. AND THEN THE OTHER THING A BIKE CORRAL A ONE REAL NEAR THE DROP OFF SIGN IT AND MAKE SURE IT'S LARGE LARGE ENOUGH TO ACCOMMODATE BICYCLE.

THEY DON'T END UP ALL OVER THE PLACE OR AT LEAST HOPEFULLY THE MAJORITY END UP IN THE BIKE CORRAL PEDESTRIAN ACCESS INTO THE PARK RIGHT NOW YOU COME DOWN FULLY FILLED AND MOST PEOPLE WALK DOWN THE MAIN ROAD TO COME IN AND THIS CREATES A REALLY UNSAFE AND UNDESIRABLE SITUATION MOST OF THE TIME ESPECIALLY WHEN IT'S BUSY SO WE LOOKED AT TWO OPTIONS THE FIRST OPTION WOULD BRING A PEDESTRIAN PROMENADE DOWN THE CENTER OF THE PROPERTY BY ELIMINATING THAT ROAD WHERE THE POND NOW WE DON'T HAVE A CROSSING THERE SO WE CAN GET ALL THE WAY TO THE PAVER DROP OFF AREA BUT A VERY SAFE CROSSWALK THERE AND WE ALSO THE BIKE CORRAL WOULD BE LOCATED RIGHT THERE AS WELL AND THEN FROM THERE BOARDWALK TO SURE OUT LOOKING AT THE TREES IN AREA WE CAN GET A 12 FOOT WIDE PATH IN THERE AND WORK AROUND ALL THE ALL THE REALLY NICE OAKS AND THE MAJORITY OF THE TREES IN THAT AREA REALLY NICE EXPERIENCE WE HAVE SOME REALLY OAKS IN THAT AREA SO PEOPLE WOULD EXPERIENCE THAT COMING IN.

SECOND OPTION YOU CAN SEE IS A PATH WOULD BE UP NORTH AND IT IS UP AGAINST THE VERONESE'S WOOD FENCE IN THE PARKING LOT RIGHT BELOW IT THE WORKS IT WILL WE MADE IT TEN FOOT WIDE

[01:50:09]

SEE THE BOXES IN RED? THIS IS WHERE WE GOT ALL THE PARKING JUST LIKE YOU KIND OF SEE WHERE WHERE WE FOUND THEM AND THAT'S GOOD IN THIS ROUGHLY 50 ADDITIONAL SPOTS IMAGERY WE WANT TO UTILIZE SOME CURVED BENCHES PROBABLY IN THE PLAYGROUND.

THESE ARE SIMILAR THE ONES THAT ARE AT SHELTER COVE RIGHT NOW ATTRACTIVE AND WELL DONE I OTHER PEOPLE PARK ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD WHEN THERE IS A PARKING SO WE'VE DONE IT ELSEWHERE THE PREVENTATIVE PARKING RAILING WE CAN NOT ALLOW THAT AND HOPEFULLY WITH ADDITIONAL SPOTS WON'T BE AN ISSUE BY CORRALLING TWO PICTURES IN THE MIDDLE AND THE EXISTING BIKE RACK OUT THERE WE'D LIKE RELOCATE IT INTO THE BIKE CORRAL AND MAKE IT KIND OF THE FOCAL FEATURE TO ALLIGATOR. IT'S A COOL LOOKING FEATURE.

IT BELONGS SO WE WANT TO MAKE SURE WE INTEGRATED BOTTOM LEFT IS THE MULTI-USE PATH AND JUST SHOWING THAT HEY THIS IS BIG ENOUGH WHERE BIKERS CAN USE IT PEOPLE CAN WALK FOOT WIDE IS A NICE GRACIOUS SIZE AND HOPEFULLY GET PEDESTRIANS OFF THE ROAD AND TO CREATE A MUCH SAFER EXPERIENCE IT'S TOP RIGHT THE DUNES FENCES YOU SEE ON THE SAND DUNES THIS IS ALUMINUM VERSION SOME OF THE CHARACTER AND IT'S SOMETHING WE WERE THINKING ABOUT FOR THE PLAYGROUND BECAUSE BEACH PARK THIS IS A BEACH ESTHETIC LET'S GO AHEAD AND BE INSPIRED BY THAT PLAYGROUND. THIS IS BIRD'S EYE VIEW FROM THE EXISTING BOARDWALK DOWN TOWARDS THE EXISTING PAVILION IN THE BACK ACROSS THE NEW PLAYGROUND YOU CAN SEE THE FENCING WE JUST TALKED ABOUT WE'D WANT ENCLOSED THIS SAFER EXPERIENCE WE GOT REALLY COOL LIVE OAK CLUSTERS IN THIS AREA AND THEY WE WANT INCORPORATED IN THE PLAYGROUND THE OTHER THING IT DOES IT GIVES US SHADE THAT WE DON'T HAVE TO PUT EXPENSIVE SHADE SAILS DOWN AND GOING TO GIVE US THE ISLAND CHARACTER KEEP THE CELL PALMS KEEP KEEP THE LIVE OAK CLUSTERS INTEGRATE THE PLAYGROUND AROUND AND SYNTHETIC FOR THE SURFACE. WE'VE BEEN LOOKING AT THE WONDERFUL THING ABOUT SYNTHETIC TURF ALSO IS IT SITS ON A DRAINAGE SYSTEM TYPICALLY AND YOU CAN PUT A UNDER DRAIN ON IT. SO THIS IS EVEN GOING TO HELP US GET THE WATER OUT OF HERE QUICKER HIDE THE DRAINS AND IT'S IN MY BACKYARD AND THE WONDERFUL THING IS 2 HOURS AFTER IT RAINS I'M USING MY BACKYARD WHEREAS WHEN I HAD TURF YOU KNOW IT MAY 24 HOURS MAYBE MORE SO I THINK IT'S A GREAT OPTION HERE.

THE LAST THING UP THE TOP RIGHT WE WERE LOOKING AT DOING A SEA TURTLE FEATURE IN THE PLAYGROUND THE REALLY BRING THE BEACH INSPIRATION HERE IT BELONGS HERE IT'S A BEACH.

LET'S LET'S PUT A FEATURE IN HERE THAT WOULD BE SOMETHING THAT PEOPLE NOTICE WHEN THEY COME IN AND FEELS YOU KNOW, FIRST CLASS CAN I JUMP IN ON PLAYGROUNDS BECAUSE WE'RE NOT HERE TO SAY PICK THIS PLAYGROUND. I PICKED THAT PLAY GROUND.

BUT I THINK I HOPE YOU'VE NOTICED HOW A DIFFERENT CHARACTER SHOWN AND EACH OF THESE DIFFERENT PARKS WE THINK IT'S AN OPPORTUNITY TO EXPAND THE SYSTEM SO THAT YOU MIGHT GO TO YOUR FAVORITE PARK ALL THE TIME BUT IF YOU GO SOMEWHERE ELSE YOU'RE GOING TO GET A COMPLETELY DIFFERENT EXPERIENCE AND HAD THE OPPORTUNITY.

AND ERIC WE'LL TALK MORE ABOUT THIS WHEN WE GET TO PATTERSON EVEN ABOUT TALKING WITH I DON'T KNOW IF YOU KNOW JASMINE WHITE LOCAL YOUNG MOM BEEN AROUND THE COUNTRY GULLAH FAMILY CONNECTION AND HOW WE CAN EVEN INTERPRET STORIES IN OUR PLAYGROUND AND DOES IT HAVE TO

[01:55:07]

YEAH. THANK YOU, JENNIFER. I THINK THAT YEAH THAT ADDED TO THE LAST THING I'D LIKE TO SAY I THINK ABOUT THIS PARK IS BEACH PARKING AND I THINK WE SHOULD FLIP THE NARRATIVE TO THIS IS A BEACH AND IF WE CAN DO THAT I THINK WE'VE SUCCEEDED SO THIS TIME QUESTIONS COMMENTS. OKAY YEAH.

PATSY YES SIR. A COUPLE OF THINGS WHERE I START OTHERS BEACH PARK IS VERY NEAR AND DEAR TO RESIDENTS I KNOW THERE IS AN ACTIVE GROUP THE ISLAND IS BEACH PARK GROUP WHO'S BEEN IN TOUCH WITH ME AND AND I KNOW WITH OTHER FOLKS BEEN IN THIS PARK A NUMBER OF TIMES WITH THE BEACH WALKERS GROUP TO WALK ALONG THE BEACH AREA SO I'M FAMILIAR WITH IT WALKED OUT THERE AGAIN ON SUNDAY SO THE CONCERN IS ABOUT THE PATHWAY THE PATHWAY THE MIDDLE OF THE PARK AS OPPOSED TO THE A PATHWAY ON THE BARONY SIDE OF THE PARK FROM THE OUTSIDE ACCESS AND AND YOU KNOW SAFETY CONCERNS AS WELL AS A FLOW OF PEDESTRIAN AND BICYCLE TRAFFIC TO GET IT AWAY FROM THE MIDDLE OF THE PARK SO ARE CONSULTANT HERE BRIEFLY VERY BRIEFLY TOUCHED ON THE PROS AND CONS OF THOSE LOCATIONS BUT I THINK NEED TO HEAR MORE ABOUT THE PROS AND CONS OF THOSE LOCATIONS BECAUSE I KNOW THE ISLANDERS BEACH PARK GROUP IS VERY INTERESTED HAVING ONLY A PATHWAY ON THE BOUNDARY ON THE BARONY AND AND ALONG WITH THAT THAT PATHWAY WIDENS TO A DRIVE AREA THAT'S USED BY THE SEA TURTLE PATROL TRUCKS.

AND ALSO I THINK I UNDERSTAND BEACH PATROL TRUCKS SO MANAGING SAFETY WITH THAT AS WELL IT APPEARS AS THOUGH THE AND THE AERIAL I CAN SEE A LOT OF TREES BUT DON'T KNOW WHAT KIND OF TREES THEY ARE BUT FROM WALKING THERE IT APPEARS AS THOUGH THE SPECIMEN THE VALUABLE TREES ARE THERE IN THE MIDDLE OF THE PARK AS OPPOSED THE BETHANY SIDE.

I'M JUST LOOKING AT THE TYPE OF TREES AND AGAIN I'M NOT AN ARBORIST.

I'M CERTAINLY NO EXPERT IN DECIDING WHAT'S A SPECIMEN TREE AND NOT YOU KNOW, AS AS THE FAMOUS SAYING GOES IN A FIRST AMENDMENT CASE BEFORE THE U.S. COURT.

I KNOW IT WHEN I SEE IT SO I KNOW WHAT I SAW WHEN I WAS OUT THERE.

I CAN'T TELL YOU EXACTLY THE THE DIAMETER, BRASS HEIGHT, THE VARIOUS TREES.

BUT IT APPEARS AS THOUGH MORE VALUABLE SPECIMEN TREES ARE IN THE MIDDLE OF THE PARK AND THAT'S CONCERN IN SAVING THAT AND ALSO IT'S NOT JUST YOU KNOW, WHAT PART MIGHT BE A NATURAL PATHWAY OR A PAVED BUT PEOPLE GO RIGHT OFF OF THE PATHWAYS SO.

WHAT KIND OF ENVIRONMENTAL SENSITIVITY IS THERE TO CREATING A PATHWAY RIGHT SMACK DAB THROUGH THE MIDDLE OF THE PARK WHERE I THINK THE MOST SENSITIVE TREES ARE LOCATED? SO I'D LIKE HEAR THE PROS AND CONS OF THAT AND WHY CAN'T WE HAVE A PATHWAY JUST ON THE NORTHERN SIDE WHILE ACCOMMODATING SEA TURTLE PATROL ETC. THE OTHER THING IS I DID NOTICE A CONSULTANT MENTION DRAINAGE ISSUES AND ADDRESSING STANDING WATER IN THE PLAYGROUND AREA BUT I NOTICED IN THE MIDDLE I CALL IT THAT'S THE OVAL UP THERE IN THE MIDDLE PART OF THAT THE ONE CLOSEST TO THE BOTTOM OF THE SCREEN IF YOU WILL THAT WAS STANDING WATER IN THE PARKING AREA ON SUNDAY AFTERNOON. WE HAD A LOT OF RAIN.

THERE WAS STANDING WATER THERE. SO I DON'T KNOW WHETHER NEW DRAINAGE PLANS WOULD ADDRESS STANDING WATER IN THAT AREA AS WELL. I THOUGHT I HEARD IN AN EARLIER DRAFT THERE WAS A FIRE PIT BUT I DO NOT SEE THIS ON THIS PLANS AND.

I HOPE THERE WILL NOT BE ONE. I THINK THAT'S DANGEROUS IN THIS AREA.

AND THEN THE OTHER THING I WANT TO ASK ABOUT IS THE CANAL THAT'S SHOWN AS I LOOK AT THE SCREEN TO MY LEFT SIDE IT APPEARED AS THOUGH FROM WHAT LITTLE I COULD TELL THAT THE THE PIPE SIZE WAS ADEQUATE FOR THE RAIN WE'D HAD BUT I DON'T KNOW WHERE THAT CANAL GOES AND WHERE IT COMES FROM AND WHAT IT SERVES AND MAKING SURE THAT WHEN WE MAKE ANY CHANGES THIS PARK THAT WE ACCOMMODATE WHATEVER KIND OF DRAINAGE AND STORMWATER IMPACT MIGHT BE CREATED OR OR SERVED BY THAT CANAL. SO I'D LIKE KNOW ABOUT THAT CANAL AND LET'S SEE I LIKE THAT WE'RE MOVING THE METERED SPACES OUT OF THE PARK.

[02:00:03]

IT LOOKS AS THOUGH THAT'S GOING TO BE RELOCATED BUT WHEREVER THAT IS WE NEED TO MAKE SURE THAT WE HAVE A SAFE PEDESTRIAN AND BICYCLISTS CROSSING ON FARLEY FIELD ROAD SO.

KEEPING THAT IN MIND, I LIKE THE IDEAS OF THE BIKE RAILS AND HAVING THAT SEPARATE FROM PARKING AREAS AND I THINK THAT WILL BE HELPFUL AND THE LOCATION OF THOSE BACK BIKE CORRALS ALONG THE PATHWAYS FOLKS BIKING IN IS DEFINITELY HELPFUL.

SO THOSE ARE MY COMMENTS AND LOTS OF QUESTIONS AND HOPEFULLY A LITTLE ADVOCACY.

THANK YOU ALEX. OH, GO AHEAD. I'M SORRY TO INTERRUPT.

I THINK WE SHOULD TALK ABOUT THE PATHWAY LOCATION AND NOT SAVE THAT FOR OUR SUMMARY BACK AND FORTH AFTER AND I'LL ASK THE REST OF MY TEAM TO JUMP IN HERE AND HELP ME WITH THIS.

BUT THERE ARE WHY STAFF OUR TEAM BELIEVES THAT A PATHWAY SHOWN IN THE MIDDLE A GOOD SOLUTION NOT THE DOES IT HAVE TO BE THE ONLY SOLUTION TYPICALLY IT IS SAFER TO CROSS AT AN INTERSECTION SO WHERE THE DRIVEWAY IS COMING IN AND PEOPLE ARE ALREADY SLOWING DOWN LOOKING AT WHAT'S GOING ON IN THE AREA TO KNOW WHERE TO INTO THE PARKING LOT AND ARE MORE LIKELY TO BE PAYING ATTENTION TO A PEDESTRIAN CROSSING. SO THAT'S ONE REASON TO HAVE THEM CROSSING AT THAT INTERSECTION WHILE A PATHWAY UP ON THE PLAN NORTH SO THE TOP OF THE SHEET CATCHES PEOPLE COMING FROM THE NORTH IT DOES NOT CATCH EVERYBODY COMING FROM PLANNED SOUTH SO IF YOU WALKING HUMAN NATURE WOULD BE YOU SEE THE DRIVEWAY THERE YOU'RE GOING TO TURN DOWN IT RATHER THAN GO PAST TO GO UP TWO TO COME IN SO I THINK IN THAT WE BELIEVE THAT PEOPLE WILL STILL BE WANTING TO WALK DOWN THE DRIVEWAY WHICH IS THE UNSAFE CONDITION NOW THAN GOING UP TO THE OTHER PATHWAY RELATIVE TO TREES. BOTH PLANS ARE AROUND ALL OF THE SPECIMEN TREES NOT IMPACTING ANYTHING. THAT SPECIMEN ARE SIGNIFICANT FROM A ALMOST STANDPOINT AND HAVE EVEN WORKED THE ONE THAT IS AROUND THE LARGER TREES AROUND THOSE AS YOU MENTIONED AS BRYSON THROUGH THE MIDDLE ARE SOME OF THE LARGER TREES WHAT THE CENTER PATHWAY ALSO DOES IS NOT HAVE THAT CROSS CONFLICT WITH THE PATHWAY THAT YOU MENTIONED THAT GOES OUT TO THE BEACH. WE USE HER BEACH RENOURISHMENT FOR SURE BEACH SERVICE FOR FAR RESCUE AND WOULD RATHER BRING PEOPLE EVEN THEY COME UP THAT PATH DOWN TO USE THE PATH IN TO THE BEACH RATHER THAN GOING THROUGH THAT KIND OF EMERGENCY BACK OF THE HOUSE PATHWAY. PART OF THE BEAUTY OF THE PLAN THAT BRIAN CREATED IS THAT NOW YOU DO NOT HAVE TO GO THROUGH BUILDING PAST THE RESTROOMS TO GET TO THE BOARDWALK IN THE BEACH. WE'VE ADDED OR PROPOSED TO ADD THAT PATHWAY AROUND THE OUTSIDE SO YOU ARE COMING UP THROUGH THAT MIDDLE PATHWAY YOU COULD GO STRAIGHT AROUND AND GET TO THE BEACH RATHER THAN HAVING TO COME IN AND BE IN WHERE PEOPLE ARE TRYING TO USE SHOWERS OR RESTROOMS WHAT HAVE YOU. SO ADDITIONALLY THE GUARDS IF YOU WILL THE AMBASSADORS PEOPLE BE WALKING PAST THERE. IT'S MORE VISIBLE WHICH IS TRADITIONALLY A SAFER SPOT THAN UP NEXT TO THE TALL WALL IN THE BARONY BEHIND ALL THE PARKING WHERE THERE'S NOT AS MUCH

[02:05:04]

LET ME MAKE MY OTHER COMMENTS AND IN THE INTEREST TIME I'M GOING TO MAKE THEM VERY BRIEF.

I LIKE THIS PLAN. I LIKE IT BECAUSE IT SPEAKS TO HEAD'S BRAND.

THE PROBLEM THOUGH IS THERE'S TENSION IN THE PLAN BECAUSE THERE'S SO MANY RESIDENTS WHO WANT TO USE THIS PARK. SO WE HAVE A VERY INEFFICIENT PARKING PLAN BUT IT RECOGNIZES OUR NATURAL ENVIRONMENT AND I DON'T KNOW WHERE WE COME OUT THAT BECAUSE BRIAN IF YOU START MANIPULATING THE PARKING SCHEME YOU'RE GOING TO DRAMATICALLY CHANGE WHERE YOU ARE TODAY AND THAT'S WHY WE RIGHT NOW PUSHED 51 ADDITIONAL SPOTS FOR VEHICLES, 26 FOR CARDS AND A LARGER BIKE CORRAL. AND I THINK WE COULD PUSH HARDER IT JUST THIS WAS OUR FIRST PASS AT A WE LIKE YOU SAID I DIDN'T WANT TO GET INTO AND WE DIDN'T WANT TO GET IN TO TAKING THE NEXT PATH THAT TAKING OUT SOME TREES THINK WE COULD PROBABLY FIND A FEW MORE WITHOUT COMPROMISING ENVIRONMENT THAT THAT WAS THE BALANCE WE'RE AT RIGHT NOW THIS IS A DETAILED PLAN I'M NOT GOING TO GO FURTHER WITH IT I THINK IT'S A GOOD PLAN AND I LIKE IT. THANK YOU, ALEX. YES.

IF YOU'RE LOOKING FOR COMMENTS ON THE PATHWAY IN PLACE THEN I'M GOING TO LEAN ON TO THE SIDE OF THE EXPERTS AS TO WHAT'S TO BE THE SAFEST. OKAY.

SO AS YOU CONTINUE TO STUDY AND MAKE THE DETERMINATION I WOULD BE SUPPORTING YOUR RECOMMENDATION AS FAR AS THAT'S CONCERNED JUST HOW MANY SPACES OR ACCOUNTING FOR THE METERED ON THE UH QUALITY OF ROAD 26 I THINK THAT'S WHAT'S REQUIRED. OKAY.

ALL RIGHT. I DON'T KNOW SAY I HAVE A COMMENT AS FAR AS DISPLAYING CONCERNED I LIKE IT. I THINK WE'RE GOING IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION BUT I WILL JUST GO BACK TO WITH THOSE SPACES BEING OUTSIDE OF THE PARK IT WILL SCREAM INCONVENIENCE OKAY.

WHICH MEANS THAT I THINK WE WILL SEE A HEIGHTENED ATTRACTION OTHER PLACES TO PARK I.E. BURGES BEACH ROAD AND CHAMPLIN PARK. ALL RIGHT.

SO I JUST US TO BE MINDFUL OF THAT AND KEEP THAT FRONT AND CENTER AND WE'VE DONE A REALLY GOOD JOB WITH THIS AREA TO MAKE SURE THAT IT'S HANDICAPPED ACCESSIBLE OVERLOOK AND THAT SORT OF THING SO THOSE THOSE TYPE OF AMENITIES THEY'RE MAKING SURE THAT WE'RE PROVIDING SAFE ACCESS FOR EVERYONE. I THINK WE JUST NEED TO MAKE

[02:10:03]

OKAY GLEN, ARE YOU THERE. YES, I'M HERE. THANK YOU.

I THINK THIS IS A CREATIVE PLAN. I LIKE A LOT OF THE IDEAS.

I THINK ELIMINATING THE PEDESTRIAN PATH THROUGH THE MIDDLE IS IS UNREALISTIC IF PEDESTRIANS ARE COMING FROM THE PROPERTIES ALONG SALLY FIELD THEY'RE GOING TO WANT TO TURN DOWN THAT DRIVEWAY IF THERE'S NO PATH THERE IT WOULD BE WONDERFUL TO BE WAY IF THERE WOULD BE A WAY TO ATTRACT THEM TO THE PATH ALONG THE ROADSIDE. BUT I JUST SEE HOW THAT IS REALISTIC. NOW MY BIGGEST CONCERN ABOUT THE PLAN HAS TO DO WITH CIRCULATION. WE'RE PUSHING THE CROSSING TRAFFIC TO BE RIGHT THERE AT THE MAIN ACCESS POINT AND THROUGH THE WESTERN PAVILIONS THERE THAT'S WHAT I'M CONCERNED ABOUT. ARE WE GOING TO HAVE TRAFFIC CONGESTION IN THAT AREA? BUT I SEE THAT YOU ARE GOING TO PARKING SPACES. WELL IF I UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU SAID YOU GAVE 26 VEHICULAR SPACES. NO WE EVOLVED THAT BY 2026 WITH THE METERED 51 VEHICULAR SPACES ADDED 51 SO WITHIN THE PARK AND SO WE HAVE AN ADDITIONAL 51 SPACES. GOOD JOB THAT LET'S MOVE FORWARD.

THANK YOU. THANK YOU LYNN TAMMY SO TO PICK UP ON A NUMBER OF THE POINTS THAT HAVE BEEN BEING MADE I THE WAY DAVID SAID IT MORE THAN MYSELF EDGE CONDITION NATURAL TO CIVILIZED DEVELOPMENT NATURAL ENVIRONMENT TO CIVILIZED DEVELOPMENT THAT'S WHAT I WAS TRYING TO EXPRESS WHEN I FIRST SPOKE THE EDGE CONDITION FOR THIS PARK BY MOVING THOSE PARKING SPOTS OUT BECOMES MORE OF A CIVILIZED EXPERIENCE IT TAKES A FOLLY FIELD ROAD NEIGHBORHOOD ROAD AND TURNS IT INTO MORE OF AN URBANIZED AREA.

THOSE SPOTS WE'VE ARGUED WITH ABOUT WHETHER OR NOT WE HAVE TO HAVE THEM THERE WAS A GRANT THAT WE RECEIVED FOR SOME BEACH NOURISHMENT THAT REQUIRED THESE 26 SPOTS I'D STILL LIKE TO PURSUE OR ANY WAY OF NEGOTIATING OUR WAY OUT OF THAT INCLUDING AS WE ARE LOOKING TO SPEND MONEY. I THINK AT ONE POINT THE COMMENT WAS AND I DON'T KNOW IF IT WAS REAL BUT IF WE DIDN'T WANT TO HAVE THOSE 26 METERED SPOTS THEN WE COULD GET BACK THE MILLION DOLLARS. I DON'T KNOW WHAT THE BARGAIN IS THERE BUT THE TOWN HAS VENTURED INTO SPENDING TO MAKE IT A BETTER COMMUNITY AND IN BETTER ENVIRONMENT FOR THE TOWN. SO POSSIBLY THAT'S A CONVERSATION WE OUGHT TO MOVING FORWARD BUT CERTAINLY AGAIN THE SAFETY ASPECT WITH REGARD TO PARKING ALONG THAT ROAD IT MAY BE THAT IT SLOWS TRAFFIC BACK BUT THOSE FOLKS ARE GOING TO WE'VE SEEN IT.

THAT'S WHY WE DON'T HAVE IT ON BURKS BEACH ROAD ANYMORE. THOSE FOLKS COME OUT OF THEIR CARS AND THEY BACK OUT INTO FALLOWFIELD ROAD AND LOADING THEIR TRUNKS AND THEIR CHILDREN AND THEIR DOGS AND, THEIR GRANDMAS AND MAKE THEIR WAY DOWN THE STREET TO WHEREVER THAT PATHWAY IS AND THERE'S A DANGEROUS CONDITION THAT'S CREATED THE DEVELOPMENT THAT WE ALL KNOW IS HAPPENING ON WIMBLEDON IS GOING TO CREATE SOMETHING OF 200 PEOPLE NOT PEOPLE UNITS WITH FAR MORE THAN THAT PEOPLE WHO ARE GOING TO WANT WALK THROUGH THIS PARK TO GET TO THE BEACH IF YOU IMAGINE THE CARS COMING IN AND WHETHER THEIR CIRCULATION OR NOT TRYING TO COMPETE, THOSE FOLKS CROSSING THE ROAD AND COMING THROUGH AND THEN TO CROSS THE DROP OFF POINT AS WELL. TO ME THAT DOESN'T CREATE A EVEN OR A SMOOTH OR SAFE FLOW.

THE MOVEMENT OF THE PATHWAY TO THE NORTH END OF THE PLAN DOES MAKE SENSE AND FURTHER THINK YOU MIGHT WANT TO THINK ABOUT WHETHER IT'S FEASIBILITY TO MOVING THOSE PARKING SPOTS ON THE ROAD WITH THE METERS THEIR OWN PRIVATE ENTRANCE AND THAT WAY YOU HAVE AN ENTRANCE THOSE

[02:15:04]

LET'S ALEX YOU'RE CORRECT THIS PARK ISLANDERS PARK IS BEST RESERVED FOR ISLANDERS AND WE'VE BEEN OVER THE LAST COUPLE OF YEARS TO MAKE SURE THAT THE RESIDENTS OF HILTON HEAD ISLAND HAVE A PLACE THEY CAN GO TO AND IT IS OVERCROWDED PERHAPS A CONVERSATION TO BE HAD WITH REGARD TO DESIGNATING ANOTHER PARK DREAZEN OR FISH HALL AS ANOTHER ISLANDER BEACH PARK TYPE THE LET'S SEE IF I'VE MISSED ANYTHING THAT I THOUGHT WAS INCREDIBLY IMPORTANT.

THE PATHWAY IS IMPORTANT THE PARKING IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT. FIREPIT WAS IMPORTANT AND I'LL LEAVE THAT AT THAT FOR NOW. THANK YOU. THANK YOU TABLE THERE WAS ONE OTHER THING IN TERMS OF PARKING AND IN TERMS OF WE HAVE A PARKING PLAN COMING FORWARD AND THE THE ATTENDANCE AT THIS PARK ARE CRITICALLY IMPORTANT WITH OR WITHOUT A PARKING PLAN BUT IF THOSE PARKING SPOTS WERE TO COME BACK INTO THE PARK, THE NEW PARKING PLAN I WOULD IMAGINE BE ABLE TO BE REGULATED TO ADDRESS ANY CONCERNS WE HAVE WITH FOLKS COMING IN LOOKING FOR METERED PARKING DESPITE NOT FINDING ONE AND USING ANOTHER SPOT.

WE WILL BE SERIOUS ABOUT TOWING THOSE CARS OUT. THANK YOU.

THANK YOU THANK YOU FOR GIVING US THE PROS AND CONS. I THINK THAT'S REALLY IMPORTANT TO UNDERSTAND. MOST OF MY QUESTIONS HAVE BEEN ASKED.

THE ONE I DO HAVE IS WHY IS THERE A REASON WHY DIDN'T LOOK SOUTH FOR A PATHWAY TO GO THROUGH YOU'VE GOT THE ONE ON THE NORTH BUT IS THERE A POSSIBILITY TO DO IT ON THE SOUTH SIDE? AM I REALLY GIVEN MY BEARINGS CORRECTLY BUT? YOU KNOW, I'M TRYING TO REMEMBER WE DID LOOK AT THAT WEEKEND.

YES, WE ACTUALLY DID AND WE DID A SKETCH TO LOOK AT THAT AND IT WOULD BE POSSIBLE HOWEVER IT WOULD TIE IN TO WHERE THE EXISTING ADA PARKING IS THERE'S A LITTLE LITTLE BIT OF A SIDEWALK TO THAT PARKING AND SO THE BEST SOLUTION WOULD BE TO BRING IT IN THE ROAD OVER THE DITCH AND THEN KIND OF WEAVING THROUGH THE TREES THEN TYING INTO THAT PARKING AND THAT WOULD PUT PEOPLE RIGHT IN WHERE THE THE BUILDING AND THE BOARDWALK ENTRANCE IS.

AND SO THE NORTHERN OPTION ACTUALLY PUTS PEOPLE SO THAT THEY CAN KIND OF JUST GO STRAIGHT TO THE. YEAH, I WAS JUST REMEMBERING WHEN TAYLOR WAS TALKING IF WE THE PATH TO THE SOUTHERN END ONE OF THE YOU COME BY THE RESTROOM BUILDING TO CONNECT UP TO THE PATH TO GO OUT TO THE BEACH IF YOU WEREN'T IT ON THE OTHER SIDE IT'S BACK OUR HOUSE AND WE DON'T HAVE A TIE THAT BOARDWALK SO THAT WAS WE JUST DIDN'T LOVE THAT FUNCTION THERE YEAH I GET THAT BUT FROM A SAFETY STANDPOINT FROM THE NORTH SIDE WHEN YOU'VE GOT SEA TURTLE BEACH PATROL UTILIZING THAT THAT RAISES A BIG CONCERN I THINK MORE SO THAN THAN TOWN AND SOUTH MAYBE SOMETHING TO CONSIDER WE JUST WENT BACK TO THE CENTER ONE BECAUSE WELL ONE OF THE THINGS WE LIKED ABOUT IT WAS RIGHT NOW I SEE PEOPLE WALKING DOWN THAT CENTER ROAD AND THERE WAS A STUDY THAT RECENTLY CAME OUT THAT THAT HUMANS ARE NATURALLY GOING TO GO WHAT'S EASIEST FOR THEM AND AND NOT TO PUT IN ANY PATHWAYS BECAUSE THE HUMANS AS HUMANS AS WE AS WE START MAKING OUR WAY TO SOMEWHERE WE'RE TO DETERMINE THE BEST PATH AND THEN YOU GO IN AND PUT THE PATH AND SO I THINK IF WE WENT NORTH OR SOUTH MY CONCERN WOULD BE WE'D END UP WITH A LOT OF PEOPLE WALKING DOWN THAT ROAD BECAUSE IT IS THE EASIEST PATH AND THAT'S JUST WHERE THEY NATURALLY GO. YEAH MAYOR CAN I ASK A QUESTION AT SOME POINT IN THE PAST THERE WAS A QUESTION AND MAYBE MARK IF YOU CAN HELP ME WITH THAT I THINK THERE WERE SOME DISCUSSION ABOUT MOVING THE TURTLE PATROL TO A MORE ESTABLISHED SPACE WITH THE AREA

[02:20:05]

IT'S TO HOPEFULLY WE HAVE A BUILDING IN A IN A BETTER OPERATIONAL CENTER BUT I DON'T WANT TO GET OVER OVER MY HANDLEBARS TOO SOON. THANK YOU.

I THINK WE CAN ALL AGREE THEY DESERVE BETTER THAN A TENT. ANY OTHER QUICK COMMENTS MAYOR IF I COULD ONE OTHER QUICK COMMENT WITH REGARD TO PHASING YOU KNOW WE'RE ALL MINDFUL OF SUMMER IS GOING TO BE HERE SOON AND AND BECAUSE THIS PARK HAS SO MANY PRESSURES ON IT SO TO SPEAK AND I DON'T KNOW THAT I DON'T KNOW WHAT WE'RE GOING TO DECIDE BUT I DON'T KNOW THAT

[5.d. Patterson Park Master Plan]

OKAY. THANK YOU. THANK YOU.

PATTERSON PARK PLAN BE ME FOR THE RECORD MY NAME AIR CLOUD I'M A PROJECT MANAGER WITH THE MICROPHONE PRODUCTS DIVISION. YES. ANOTHER LAD WITH THE BRYANT TEAM HERE. YEAH. MOVE CLOSER.

THERE YOU GO. SO THIS IS ONE OF OUR CDBG GRANT FUNDED PROJECTS.

IT'S A SMALL LITTLE PROJECT LOCATED JUST TO THE SOUTHWEST OF MARSHLAND ROAD AND THE MATHEWS DRIVE CIRCLE. YOU CAN ON THIS PLAN RIGHT HERE WE HAVE AN EXISTING PATHWAY JUST THE NORTH FROM THE SITE AND THEN THE BROAD CREEK IS THE SOUTH AND SIDE.

SO WE HAVE OUTLINED A FEW PROGRAM RECOMMENDATIONS FOR THIS REALLY THE IMPETUS FOR THIS PROJECT BEGAN WITH COMMUNITY INPUT AND WE PLAN TO CONTINUE THAT IN SUBSEQUENT PHASES OF THIS PROJECT PART OF THAT IS GOING TO INCLUDE AN ENTRY PARTNERSHIP.

WE HAVE SOME ACCESSIBILITY ISSUES INTO THE SITE THAT WE'RE PROPOSING SOME CHALLENGES BUT THROUGH A COLLABORATIVE PROCESS WE'VE ABLE TO KIND OF CREATE A SOLUTION THAT WORKS FOR EVERYBODY. OBVIOUSLY BEING THIS CLOSE TO BROAD CREEK WANT TO CAPITALIZE ON THOSE VIEWS AND THEN WANT THIS PROJECT REALLY TO SERVE AS THE FRAMEWORK TELLING THE SITE'S STORY AND AND WHAT WE MEAN BY THAT. YOU KNOW THERE'S OBVIOUSLY AN ENVIRONMENTAL ASPECT THIS BUT ALSO A HISTORICAL AND CULTURAL ASPECT THIS LAND WAS DONATED TO THE TOWN SEVERAL YEARS AGO BY THE PATTERSON WITH THE INTENT OF IT BEING A SMALL NEIGHBORHOOD PARK. AND SO THAT'S WHAT WE'RE DOING. SOME OF THE ELEMENTS THAT YOU'RE GOING TO SEE IN THIS PRESENTATION ARE THE PROVISION OF PLAY OPPORTUNITIES FOR ALL AGES AND THAT INCLUDES CHILDREN AS WELL AS ADULTS. WE ARE GOING TO PROVIDE THAT EVEN ON A OKAY WE'RE GOING TO PROVIDE GATHERING SPACES SINCE THIS IS A SMALLER SITE KNOW THIS IS GOING TO BE MORE OF AN INTIMATE SPACE FOR PEOPLE IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD AS WELL THE SURROUNDING COMMUNITY AND. WE'RE ALSO GOING TO BE LOOKING AT CONNECTIVITY NOT ALSO NOT JUST WITHIN THE PARK ITSELF BUT TO A DEFUNCT ONE. OF COURSE I DID OKAY BETTER SO WE'RE GOING TO LOOK AT PROVIDING ACCESS OPPORTUNITIES TO THE PATHWAY THAT'S ON THE NORTH THEN REALLY CREATING THIS NEIGHBORHOOD DESTINATION. SO WITH THAT I'M GOING TO LET BRIAN WHITMER OUR DESIGN TALK THROUGH SOME OF THE SITE SPECIFICS.

ALL RIGHT, PATTERSON, I'M GOING TO START WITH SOME EXISTING CONDITIONS OUT HERE.

THIS PLAN SHOWS THE PARK WHICH IS ON THE LOWER AND THEN SHOWS FIVE PARCELS ABOVE IT WHICH ARE ADJACENT PROPERTY OWNERS BECAUSE WE LOOKED AT THIS A LITTLE BEYOND BOUNDARIES AND WE'RE GOING TO GET INTO II IN JUST A SECOND WE HAVE A LITTLE BIT OF UPLAND UP AGAINST

[02:25:03]

WE HAVE SOME REALLY NICE LIVE OAKS ON THE EDGES AND WHEN WE GET ALL THE WAY TO THE EDGE WE HAVE REALLY NICE VIEWS OUT TO MARSH CREEK WE WANT AND ERIC HIT ON THIS WE WANT TO CONTINUE CONTINUE THE COMMUNITY INPUT WE HAD ONE STAKEHOLDERS MEETING WE GOT A LOT OF INPUT I'M JUST GOING TO HIT ON SOME OF THE HIGHLIGHTS TELLING THE SITE'S STORY WAS ALREADY MENTIONED THAT THAT'S VERY IMPORTANT AND THAT'S THE HISTORY ENVIRONMENTAL WOULD BE THE SECOND COMPONENT AND IN THE OPINION AT THAT MEETING SAFETY WAS BROUGHT UP IN NUMEROUS WAYS ACCESS ARE WE GOING TO GET IT LIGHTING SECURITY CAMERAS THAT THEY WANTED TO MAKE SURE THIS WAS A SAFE PLACE AT NIGHT AND NOT HANGOUT SO JUST HOW WE DO THAT AND I THINK WE CAN ACCOMMODATE IT BUT THAT WAS A DEFINITELY A TOPIC THAT KEPT GETTING BROUGHT UP THIS TO BE A LOCAL ORIENTED PARK. IT'S THREE LITTLE OVER THREE ACRES.

IT SHOULD BE A NEIGHBORHOOD. WE HAVE PLENTY OF PARKS THAT ARE FOR THE WHOLE ISLAND.

THIS SHOULD MORE FOR THE NEIGHBORHOOD OR THE PEOPLE THAT ARE IN PROXIMITY TO IT.

NOT THAT SOMEBODY FROM SOUTH AN ISLAND COULDN'T GO BUT IT'S MORE DESIGNED TO BE INTIMATE AND MORE FOR THE PEOPLE THAT ARE IN CLOSE PROXIMITY. SRI PARTNERSHIP THAT WE TALKED ABOUT WHEN WE WHEN WE TOOK A FIRST LOOK AT CROSSING THAT WETLAND THE VEHICULAR WAS TWO PROBLEMS WITH IT. IT WAS COSTLY AND THE ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT ON THAT WETLAND ISN'T A GOOD STORY TO TELL EITHER. SO WE STARTED TALKING THE ADJACENT PROPERTY OWNERS THEY ALREADY THE WETLAND SO THERE'S EXISTING CROSSING THERE WE HAVE AN ACCESS POINT OFF OF MARSHLAND SO WE WOULDN'T CREATING ANOTHER ONE IN CLOSE PROXIMITY TO SO WE STARTED A DIALOG WITH THEM AND YOU CAN SEE NUMBER SIX UP THERE WOULD BE A SHARED ACCESS ENTRY THAT WOULD BE SHARED THOSE ADJACENT PROPERTY OWNERS AND ALSO BE THE ACCESS TO THE PARK WOULD GIVE THEM BETTER ACCESS TO THEIR SITE A BETTER ROAD IT WOULD GIVE THEM A SAFE THERE'S A SAFE TURN AROUND HERE IF THE PARK IS CLOSED OR FOR EMERGENCY VEHICLES THAT NUMBER THREE AND WE'RE ALSO SHOWING THAT WE'D HAVE ON THAT THAT COULD BRING YOU INTO THE PARK AND SOME ON STREET WE WANT THAT TO FEEL LIKE A NEIGHBORHOOD STREET IN MARSHLAND AND TO FEEL LIKE A COMPLETE STREET SO. WE HAD GOOD LUCK TALKING WITH THE ADJACENT PROPERTY AND WE'RE STILL IN PROGRESS BUT THAT'S BEEN GOING REALLY WELL AND SO WE REALLY LIKE THAT BETTER. ANY VEHICULAR BRIDGE ACROSS THE WETLANDS SO WE'RE EXCITED THAT THAT RIGHT NOW LOOKS LIKE A POSSIBILITY TO KIND OF JUMP INTO OUR HANG ON.

OH GOOD YEAH. THAT'S WHAT I WAS LOOKING FOR. I HIT ON SOME OF THE HIGHLIGHTS AND THEN WE'RE GOING TO GO INTO DETAIL THE PERSPECTIVE AT THE END BECAUSE ON THE SMALL PARK YOU CAN SEE EVERY MOST EVERYTHING FROM ONE PICTURE BUT SOME OF THE OTHER ELEMENTS THAT WE LOOKED AT HERE WAS WE HAVE A LOOP ZONE AROUND WETLAND THAT COULD BE COULD GIVE YOU THE OPPORTUNITY TO LOOK INTO THAT WETLAND THE TELL PART OF THAT STORY WE CAN DO ENHANCEMENTS TO THE EDGE, PUT THE PLANTS BACK THAT BELONG ON THAT EDGE AND PROTECT IT AND THAT LOOP COULD ALSO WE'RE SHOWING A PEDESTRIAN BRIDGE WHICH THAT WOULD BE A LIGHTER TOUCH AND WOULD GIVE YOU ACCESS ON THE SOUTHERN SIDE OR HAVE A SAFE CROSSWALK ACROSS MARSHLAND WHERE THAT WOULD BRING YOU TO THE BIKE TREE ON THE OTHER SIDE THAT WOULD BE DESIGNED WITH SAFETY IN MIND THERE YOU CAN SEE THE BIG GREEN CIRCLES ARE THE SIGNIFICANT WELL ACTUALLY SPECIMEN LIVE WORKS ON THIS AND WE WANT TO WORK AROUND THEM AND IT'S REALLY NICE HOW THEY OF FRAME THE VIEWS OUT TO THE MARSH SO IT'S WE'RE KIND FORTUNATE THEY ARE WHERE THEY ARE HERE AND THEN WE WANTED TO MAKE THIS PLACE AND BACK TO THE NEIGHBORHOOD PARK.

WE WANT THIS TO BE A PLACE FOR A BIRTHDAY PARTY A REUNION NEIGHBORHOOD FELLOWSHIP THOSE SIZE A BIT SO WHAT WE'RE DESIGNING THIS PARK TO BE HERE I'M TO HIT WELL I WANT YOU I

[02:30:03]

WE'RE CALLING IT THE PLAYGROUND FOR ALL AGES. WE WANT TO HAVE SOME FITNESS FOR ADULTS WHO HAVE SOME AREAS KIDS AND SOME AREAS IN BETWEEN. SO IT'S KIND OF THAT ALL OF PLAY AND LOOKING FOR THIS ONE TO BE MORE NATURE BLENDING AND TO GO AWAY IN THIS AREA AS FAR AS NOT HIGHLY AND KIND OF BLEND IN WITH WITH THIS NEIGHBORHOOD PAVILION OR SOME TYPE OF COVERED STRUCTURE SO IF THERE IS RAIN YOU CAN STILL BE OUT HERE AND AND THEN SOME SORT OF SEAWALL OR RACE PLATFORM WE WERE ENVISIONING TO GET UP CLOSE TO THE EDGE, ENJOY THE VIEWS AND EXPERIENCE THAT SEE IF OH PERFECT ASSIGNMENT WORK THIS BIRD'S EYE VIEW IS LOOKING FROM THE WETLAND TOWARDS BROAD CREEK WHAT YOU SEE IN THE FOREGROUND WOULD BE THE LOOP TRAIL SOME BIKE PARKING ON IT AND THEN IN FRONT OF THAT I THINK WE HAVE 11 SPACES ON THIS SKETCH SO A VERY SMALL PARKING AREA FOR CARS. THE ENTRY TRELLIS WOULD BRING YOU INTO THAT ALL AREA FOR PLAY FOR ALL IT WOULD BE THE FITNESS AND THE PLAYGROUND SWING SO ALL THAT WOULD BE ENCOMPASSED TOGETHER AND IT'S AT THE END OF THE PARKING LOT OPEN AIR PAVILION WITH RESTROOMS THAT CENTER AS SHOWN RIGHT NOW FOR SIDED PAVILION FRONT IS SET UP FOR ARRIVAL SEQUENCE SO VEHICLES CARS YOU COME TO THE FRONT OF IT THE TWO SIDES ARE SMALL ROOMS ONE SHOWING LIKE ADIRONDACK LOOKING TOWARDS THE MARSH.

THE OTHER IS OYSTERS OYSTER AND GRILLING STATIONS. SO THESE ROOMS COULD KNOW SMALLER ROOMS AND I KNOW THAT WOULD GO AWAY AND THERE WE GO. SO THOSE SMALL OUTDOOR ROOMS COULD MAKE THE PAVILION GROW DURING A YOU KNOW, A REUNION OR FAMILY EVENT IF NEED BE.

AND THEN ON THE BACK SIDE IT SPILLS OUT TO THAT LAWN SO YOU COULD SPILL OUT THAT AREA AND ENJOY THE PAVILION FROM THAT SIDE AS WELL. THAT LOOP TRAIL GOES OUT TO A LITTLE SEATING PLATFORM JUST RAISED DECK THAT YOU COULD SIT OUT THERE QUIET REFLECTION, SIT OUT ON THE MARSH'S EDGE, MAYBE ENJOY FIREWORKS ON A TUESDAY NIGHT DURING THE SUMMER SO THAT'S KIND OF THE PIECES IN IT ARE LESS TELL MEETING SOMEBODY BROUGHT IT UP AND CAN'T REMEMBER IT WAS TAYLOR OR ERIC BUT YOU SAID THIS IS KIND IT WAS AND YOU SAID THIS IS THIS REMINDS ME OF THIS IS LIKE THE NEIGHBORHOOD'S BACKYARD PARK AND I THOUGHT THAT WAS A GREAT WAY OF SUMMING UP WHAT IT COULD BE AND WHAT WE HOPE IT IS. SO ANY QUESTIONS COMMENTS BE HAPPY TO ANSWER? YEAH. I NEED TO JUMP IN WITH A COUPLE OF THINGS AND THAT'S WHAT I WAS GOING TO SAY TOO IS SIMPLE NEIGHBORHOOD, BACKYARD, ALL THE FUN STUFF THAT YOU'D LOVE TO HAVE AT YOUR HOME BUT MAYBE YOU'RE LOT IN THIS NEIGHBORHOOD SMALL AND YOU WANT TO WALK TO AND THERE'S THE PICTURE WINDOW TO GET THE BIG VIEW AND YOU'RE GATHERING SPACES THERE BUT THIS AS A PART OF A CDBG PROJECT REQUIRES SOME CERTAIN THINGS FOR US TO DO AND WE'VE BEEN IN AN ENTITLEMENT COMMUNITY FOR A WHILE NOW AND WE DO THESE THINGS ALL OF OUR PROJECTS BUT AS WE HAVE SOME NEW HERE WANT TO MAKE SURE YOU UNDERSTAND

[02:35:03]

THANK YOU ALEX. YOUR INPUT? YEAH JUST PICKING UP ON WHAT MISSOURI IS SAYING AS FAR AS A COMMUNITY BLOCK GRANT REQUIREMENTS AND THERE'S FUNDING ASSOCIATED WITH THIS PARK HAS BEEN IN THE FOR A LONG TIME I VIEW THIS DIFFERENTLY THE PHASING OF THE OTHER PROJECTS THERE'S ALREADY A COMMITMENT WITH FUNDING SO I WOULD ONLY ADD THAT WE WE ASK TO BE VERY EXPEDITIOUS IN MOVING THIS ALONG AND MAYBE BRINGING IT OUTSIDE OF THE PHASE PLAN WITH THE OTHER FOUR IN FRONT OF US.

ALL RIGHT, THANK YOU TAMMY. SO I THINK THIS IS A WONDERFUL PARK LONG OVERDUE IN THIS AREA THAT IS WITHOUT GREAT AC. I LIKE IT HOW MANY PICNIC TABLES ARE THERE? I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT A NEIGHBORHOOD PARK WAS TRYING TO COUNT THEM UNDER THAT SKETCH OF THE PAVILION. I COULDN'T QUITE DO IT, YOU KNOW, AND I LIKE THAT THERE'S OYSTER SHELLING BECAUSE THAT'S DEFINITELY A TRADITION ON THE ISLAND.

BUT I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE WE HAVE ENOUGH PICNIC TABLES FOR FOLKS IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD TO ENJOY IT. AND THEN THE LAST THING IS I THINK I HEARD ONE STAKEHOLDER MEETING OR ONE NEIGHBORHOOD MEETING AND HOPE THERE HAVE BEEN MORE.

I THINK IT WOULD BE HELPFUL BUT I'M WITH MR. BROWN. LET'S MOVE IT.

LET'S DO IT. STEVE, I'VE JUST COUPLE OF QUESTIONS.

WILL THE FEDERAL GRANT COVER THE ENTIRE COST OR IS IT ANTICIPATED THAT THE TOWN WILL HAVE TO CONTRIBUTE ADDITIONAL FUNDS AND THERE ARE ADDITIONAL FUNDS BUDGETED FOR THIS? OUR TYPICAL ALLOCATION IS IN THE 200 TO $250000 RANGE. SO ALMOST EXCLUSIVELY I'M TRYING THINK OF THERE'S BEEN A PROJECT THAT WE'VE DONE THAT DIDN'T NEED ADDITIONAL FUNDS BUT TYPICALLY LEVERAGE THOSE FUNDS AND ADD TO IT AND IN TERMS OF REQUESTS BY THE NEIGHBORS COMING OUT OF YOUR CONVERSATIONS WITH THEM, WERE THERE ANY THINGS THEY SUGGESTED THAT YOU DID NOT INCLUDE? A REALLY GOOD QUESTION AND I WOULD SAY NO THINK THE BIGGEST CONCERN WAS THAT THIS NOT BE AN EVENT SPACE NOT B BALL FIELDS THAT IT BE MORE FOR NEIGHBORHOODS. SO THE ELEMENTS HERE ARE ELEMENTS THAT THEY BROUGHT UP DURING THAT NEIGHBORHOOD MEETING AND I WILL SHOUT OUT I KNOW HERE I'M NOT TO HURT FOR THEY HAVE BEEN IN MOVING THIS ALONG TOO AND IT'S BEEN A GOOD EXAMPLE WORKING CLOSELY WITH OUR ADJACENT NEIGHBORS TO COME UP WITH PLAN THAT MEETS THE DESIRE OF THE COMMUNITY.

THANK YOU. GLEN, ARE YOU THERE? I THINK I HEARD THEM HAVING LUNCH. YEAH, NO, THERE IS YOU'RE AND I'M YOU KNOW, LIP READING SKILLS OR FAITH. YEAH. UNMUTE YOURSELF GLEN.

[02:40:03]

LET ME LET ME JUST GO AHEAD GO AHEAD. YEAH, GO AHEAD.

THANK YOU, MAYOR. I LIKE THIS BECAUSE THE COLLABORATION WITH ADJACENT PROPERTY OWNERS I THINK THAT IT IS A IMPORTANT SYMBOLIC MOVE ON DOWN ON IT BUT I DO JUST ONE THING BRIAN. YOU MENTIONED AT ONE POINT OF A SECURITY ISSUE SOME NEIGHBORS WERE CONCERNED ABOUT MAYBE NEEDING GATE AND SO ON IF THAT IS ACTUALLY AN ISSUE THEN I QUESTION WHETHER OR NOT THE BIKE THE WALKING PATH OVER THE LAGOON IN OTHER WORDS AN ALTERNATE ACCESS POINT MAKES SENSE FROM A SECURITY STANDPOINT YOU DON'T HAVE TO ANSWER THAT NOW I'M JUST RAISING THAT AS A REACTION TO THE PLAN.

THANK YOU. THAT'S ALL. ALL RIGHT, GLENN, WE'LL GIVE YOU ANOTHER SHOT AS WE GO. ONE, TWO, THREE. I WILL SAY THAT I SUPPORT THIS PROJECT AND I DID ON THE PREVIOUS COMMENTS. THANK YOU.

THANK YOU. FIRST AND FOREMOST, GOT TO THANK THE PATTERSON FAMILY FOR FOR DONATING THIS TO THE COMMUNITY. THAT'S AWESOME.

I HAVE NO OTHER QUESTIONS. I THINK IT'S GREAT AND WITH THAT SAID I'M GOING TO OFFER UP FIVE MINUTE BREAK STRETCH YOUR LEGS FOR A MINUTE, GO TO THE RESTROOM IF ALL RIGHT.

SINCE WE'RE ALL BACK. I HOPE EVERYBODY GET TO RELAX LET'S MOVE ON TO SHELTER

[5.e. Shelter Cove Park Expansion Master Plan]

THANK YOU. CHRISTA, COULD YOU BRING THE PLANS UP PLEASE? THANK YOU SO PART OF THE DAY SO AGAIN WE'VE BEEN WORKING WITH BRIAN WHITMER WITH WHITMER.

JONES KEEFER ON THIS PROJECT. I THINK MOST PEOPLE ARE VERY FAMILIAR WITH SHELTER COVE COMMUNITY PARK SOME OF THE RECENT THAT WE'VE DONE TO THE NORTH WITH THE CONNECTIVITY TRAIL THE ACTUAL CORE PARK WAS I BELIEVE BACK IN 2015 BRIAN WAS PART OF THAT EFFORT ON THE ON THE DESIGN TEAM WITH THAT SO HE'S BEEN INVOLVED THIS PROJECT FOR QUITE A WHILE SO THE AREA THAT WE'RE LOOKING AT IS JUST TO THE SOUTHWEST OF THE THERE'S A APPROXIMATELY FOUR AND A HALF ACRES HALF OF WHICH IS WOODED THE OTHER HALF IS RELATIVELY OPEN.

I THINK EVERYONE'S FAMILIAR WITH EVENTS THAT TAKE PLACE HERE.

A LOT OF THE VENDORS PARK IN THIS. WE'VE BEEN WORKING WITH ISLAND REC WITH THIS CONCEPT OUT TO MAKE SURE EVERYONE'S ON BOARD WITH WHAT WE'RE PROPOSING SO SOME OF THE PROGRAM RECOMMENDATIONS WE DEFINITELY WANT TO EXPAND ON THE WATERFRONT THAT IS VERY SUCCESSFUL AND I THINK EVERYONE LOVES THAT AND THAT HELP CREATE A SEAMLESS TRANSITION INTO THIS NEW AREA. WE WANT TO ADD SOME ADDITIONAL PARKING FOR VISITORS. WE WANT TO TAKE THAT PLAYGROUND AND AS MENTIONED PREVIOUSLY ON THE OTHER PROJECTS CREATE A LARGER AND MORE UNIQUE PLAYGROUND WITH SOME SOME FEATURES THAT ARE JUST SPECIFIC TO THIS THIS PARK SITE AND THEN IN THAT WOODED AREA, YOU KNOW, WE REALLY WANT TO CAPITALIZE ON THIS OAK CANOPY AND PROVIDE SOME OPPORTUNITIES FOR PEOPLE TO ENGAGE IN NATURE WHICH IS YOU KNOW, YOU GET LITTLE BIT OF THAT FURTHER UP ON THE KIND OF ACTIVITY WHERE YOU'RE WALKING THROUGH THE MARSH BUT NOT A LOT OF WOODLAND AREA THAT YOU GET TO ENCOUNTER. THIS IS A GREAT OPPORTUNITY FOR THAT AND THEN PROBABLY THE MOST EXCITING IS AN OPPORTUNITY FOR SOMETHING VERY ICONIC AS A DESTINATION TO REALLY ANCHOR THIS AND I'LL LET BRIAN GET INTO THAT NEXT. ALL RIGHT.

I'LL GO THROUGH SOME EXISTING CONDITIONS HERE WHICH AREN'T AS MUCH THE MAIN EXISTING CONDITION PHASE ONE OF THE PARK WE HAVE A SUNSET PAVILION THAT HAS THE RESTROOMS AND.

IT SITS RIGHT NEXT TO THE EXISTING PLAYGROUND GOING TO THE RIGHT YOU HAVE A SMALL AREA THAT THE SUNSET PAVILION SPILLS ON THE RAISED YOU HAVE THE RAISED SEA WALL WITH A SMALL OVAL LAWN AND THEN THAT'S WHERE THAT PEDESTRIAN PROMENADE SITS. THAT IS I THINK IT'S HIGHLY USE. PEOPLE GO OUT THERE FOR A PHOTO OP.

IT'S LET THEM GET CLOSE TO THE EDGE AND I THINK THAT'S AN IMPORTANT IN THIS PARK THE

[02:45:03]

THERE'S A EXISTING CURB CUT RIGHT NOW PEOPLE PARK IN THIS FIELD DURING EVENTS MOSTLY YOU KNOW BACK OF HOUSE TYPE STUFF. WHAT WE WANT TO DO AND WHAT WE'RE SHOWING HERE IS A 50 CAR PARKING LOT THAT WOULD COME IN OFF OF THAT ACCESS WITH A TURN AROUND AT THE END NICE THING IS WITH THE ONE POINT ACCESS WE COULD BLOCK IT OFF FOR EVENTS IT'S MORE FLEXIBLE, IT'S COMPLEMENT IT'S SHELTER COVE LANE PARKING AND AS WE ALL KNOW AS USERS OF THIS PARK MORE PARKING IS NEEDED BECAUSE MANY TIMES IT'S FULL. THE CANOPY PARK TO THE OVER THERE WHERE NUMBER TEN IS WE WANT WITHIN AND UNDERBRUSH IT IN REALLY CLEAN UP UNDERNEATH THOSE OAKS HAVE TRAILS TRO A SWING MAYBE A TREE SWING IF WE CAN FIND THE RIGHT ONE WE WANT THIS TO BE A PARK WHERE PEOPLE CAN GO THE SUMMER MONTHS AND ENJOY SHADE.

IT WOULD BE I THINK IT'D BE VERY POPULAR DURING THAT TYPE OF THAT TIME OF YEAR THE PLAYGROUND WE HAVE EXISTING PLAYGROUND IS COMING UP ON TEN YEARS AND DURING EVENTS IT'S IT'S A LITTLE UNDERSIZED SO THIS IS OUR OPPORTUNITY TO ENLARGE IT AND WE'RE GOING TO TALK TO IT THIS WAY. THIS PERSPECTIVE SHOWS NEW PLAYGROUND WITH SHADE SAILS OVER IT FENCE THE WHOLE PLAYGROUND AND THE OTHER THING WE WANTED TO DO IN THE PLAYGROUND WAS TO HAVE A LAWN AREA INSIDE THE PLAYGROUND BECAUSE SOMETIMES THAT ON PROGRAM IS JUST AS POPULAR AND IS IS ONE OF THE ITEMS THAT IT'S MORE COST EFFECTIVE TOO AND LETS YOU ALLOCATE FUNDS TO MANY MORE PLAY ELEMENTS SO A MUCH LARGER PLAYGROUND THAT CAN ACCOMMODATE LARGER GROUPS AS SHELTER HAS FILLED UP AND BECOME VERY POPULAR THERE'S MORE AND MORE USERS HERE. SO THAT'S THE NEW PLAYGROUND. COUPLE OF IMAGES TO THE SIDE JUST IN YOU KNOW EARTH, TONES AND YOU KNOW, POTENTIALLY A RUBBERIZED SURFACE ON THE GROUND. BUT WE'RE LOOKING INTO THOSE OPTIONS IN PITCH AND THE TOP IS THE EXISTING WATERFRONT PROMENADE AND AND YOU CAN KIND OF SEE THE PALM TREES AT THE TOP ALONG THE MARSHES, A BROAD CREEK JUST GOING ALL THE WAY FROM TO A STRUCTURE IN THE TOP LEFT AND WANT TO HAVE A FOCAL POINT IN THIS CANOPY PARK AREA AS A DESTINATION AS SOME TYPE ICONIC FEATURE. HERE IS OUR CONCEPT IMAGE OF WHAT COULD AT THE END OF THE TRAIL AND WE WANT IT TO BE AN ICONIC AND UNIQUE MULTIPLE LEVELS TO EXPERIENCE IF YOU CAN GET UP AND EXPERIENCE BROAD CREEK FROM A BIRD'S EYE PERSPECTIVE IT GIVES YOU AN UNIQUE VANTAGE POINT AND YOU CAN REALLY SEE IT DIFFERENTLY. YOU CAN GET OUT THERE AND EXPERIENCE IT, WE CAN POINT IT AND IT'S POINTING WEST SO YOU'RE GOING TO SUNSET VIEWS FOR PHOTO OPS YOU CAN SEE WHAT I THINK OUR FALL COLOR IS IS WATCHING THE MARSH GRASSES CHANGE COLORS AND YOU SEE A LOT OF THE MARSH FROM THIS THIS VANTAGE POINT YOU COULD REALLY GET OUT THERE AND EXPERIENCE IT WILDLIFE VIEWING AREA AND WHEN WE GET UP LEVELS YOU'RE GOING TO BE INTO THE CANOPY AND GET TO EXPERIENCE OAKS FROM A DIFFERENT PERSPECTIVE THERE AND

[02:50:01]

I THINK WE HAVE CREATIVE IDEAS THAT ARE BEING SUGGESTED AND I SUPPORT AND THANK YOU.

THANK YOU STEVE. IT LOOKS LIKE A GOOD AWESOME TAMMY.

I REPRESENT THE NEIGHBORHOOD RIGHT NEXT TO THIS PARK NEWPORT VILLAS AND THERE ARE CONCERNS WITH THE HEIGHT TO MAKE SURE THAT THEIR SAFETY AND PRIVACY IS PROTECTED AND I THINK THAT'S IMPORTANT IN TERMS OF SAFETY. WE MENTIONED IT BEFORE REGARD TO PATTERSON CONCERNS.

I THINK WE SHOULD ACKNOWLEDGE THAT ALL OF OUR PARKS ON THE ISLAND HAVE SAFETY CONCERNS AND THAT WE NEED TO BE VERY COGNIZANT OF WHERE MAKING ALL INITIATIVES TO KEEP THEM SAFE FROM OF WHAT COULD HAPPEN THERE BUT IN PARTICULAR THE THIS THIS NEIGHBORHOOD IS VERY SENSITIVE TO FACT THAT THE HIGHER YOU GET UP ABOVE THE TREES AND AROUND THE THE MORE YOU'LL BE ABLE TO BE LOOKING INTO THEIR WINDOWS. SO I WANT TO MAKE SURE WE'RE PROTECTING THEIR PRIVACY THANK YOU, BETSY. SIR, FIRST OF ALL, IT'S REALLY COOL.

AS A FORMER BIRDER I DON'T DO AS MUCH BIRDING ANYMORE BUT HAVING AN OBSERVATION PLATFORM ELEVATED PLATFORM IS WAY COOL. THERE'S LOTS OF GREAT BIRDS TO SEE IN THE MARSH.

MY ONLY QUESTION IS DURING THE FIREWORKS DISPLAYS ARE WE GOING TO HAVE TO COORDINATE AREA OFF BECAUSE EVERYBODY BE FIGHTING TO GET UP ON THE ELEVATED PLATFORM ANYHOW.

IT'S SOMETHING TO CONSIDER FOR FUTURE PROGRAMING. I LIKE MORE PLAYGROUNDS WE DEFINITELY NEED MORE PLAYGROUND SPACE THERE. I DON'T KNOW WHAT A STEAM PLAYGROUND IS. I KNOW I KNOW WHAT A STEAM ENGINE IS AND I KNOW WHAT STEM IS BUT JUST A QUESTION AS TO WHAT AREA IS IT SOUNDS COOL AND .

I LIKE FERMI ARTS ARTS. OKAY OKAY IT'S SCIENCE TECHNOLOGY ENGINEERING AND MATHEMATICS YOU GOT IT IN ART AND ART PLUS STEM ART. THANK YOU.

THANK YOU. ALL RIGHT. I'M COOL DOWN AND AND THE EXTRA PARKING WE CERTAINLY NEED IT BUT PRESERVATION OF THE TREES IN THAT AREA I THINK IS IS KEY BECAUSE I'M WONDERING HAVING PARKED THAT OVERFLOW PARKING FEW TIMES THERE'S SOME REALLY NICE TREES THERE. SO IT SOUNDS LIKE PROTECTING THOSE.

SO I LIKE ALL THAT I KNOW WHERE I'M GOING FOR FIREWORKS. OKAY.

THANK YOU, BETSY. ONE OF THESE DAYS WE'RE GOING TO FIND SOMETHING YOU HAVEN'T DONE IN JUST TRY. YOU'VE ALREADY TOLD ME ABOUT FOOTBALL.

SO ALEX. I LIKE IT. I'M GOOD.

DAVID YEAH, I LIKE IT ALSO AND BRIAN I LIKE THE IDEA OF THE TREE HOUSE CARRYING THE LEGACY OF THE ORIGINAL TREE HOUSE AND HARBOR TOWN. I THAT REALLY WORKS FOR HILTON HEAD. THANK YOU. YEAH I DID OF THAT THAT TREE HOUSE IN HARBOR TOWN WAS IT WAS A SITE OF A LOT PINE CONE FIGHTS BACK IN THE DAY AND WELL THEY'RE GETTING PEGGED IN THE FACE FOR PECKING SOMEBODY IN THE FACE.

IT'S A LOT OF GREAT MEMORIES BUT I THINK IT'S REALLY EXCITING TO SEE THE CULMINATION OF THIS PART COMING TOGETHER. IT'S BEEN A LONG TIME. IT'S BEEN OUT THERE AND IT'S NICE TO SEE THAT WE'RE GETTING THERE SO WITH THAT SAID, ARE THERE ANY OTHER QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS? COUNSEL OKAY JUST. GO AHEAD.

JUST ONE WITH REGARD TO PICKLEBALL, WHILE WE ARE GETTING READY TO PUT TOGETHER TIMELINE AND ALL OF THOSE TYPES OF THINGS, WE DO HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY.

I THINK MAYBE I'M WRONG. I'D LIKE TO HEAR MORE THIS IDEA OF TAKING THE WHAT IS NOW

[02:55:03]

[6. Appearance by Citizens]

YOU NEED TO FEEL THAT ABOUT THE 400 FOOT LENGTH TO REALLY GET ANYTHING DONE 210 FEET WORKS UNTIL YOU'RE ABOUT 12 AND PAST THAT MIDDLE SCHOOL HIGH SCHOOL YOU NEED TO BE AT ABOUT 400.

YOU NEED TWO OF THOSE AND IF YOU REALLY RUN OUT OF ROOM YOU MIGHT WANT TO SACRIFICE A SMALL ONE TO GET THAT SECOND 400. IT'S THAT IMPORTANT NOW THAT WHOLE COMPLEX IS RUN BY VOLUNTEERS. WE DON'T HAVE A TOWN AND REC DEPARTMENT WITH PEOPLE THERE READY TO COOK WINGS AND HOT DOGS A PARK THAT'S SPREAD OUT WITH TWO CONCESSION STANDS PUTS A LOT OF PRESSURE ON YOUR VOLUNTEERS. IT WOULD BE WISER TO PULL IT IN. A LOT OF THE PARKS HAVE A FIVE STAR FIELD COMPLEX WHERE THERE'S ONE CENTRAL HUB, RIGHT? IF THAT'S POSSIBLE, YOU'RE WALK OF CHAMPIONS IN YOUR DAY AND RECENT YOU COULD BE, YOU KNOW, ANY NUMBER OF PLACES THERE. I DO LIKE THAT IT'S ALL FENCE BUT IF YOU COULD PUT IT IN TIGHTER YOU WOULD HAVE A MOM SITTING HERE WATCHING THIS GAME HER FIVE YEAR OLD DOWN THERE OUT OF SIGHT AT A PLAYGROUND. SO THOSE ARE MY COMMENTS I HAD BEEN THE HEAD OF HILTON HEAD BASEBALL AND MY KIDS STILL PLAY.

SO THOSE COMMENTS AND YOU GUYS WOULD KNOW ABOUT THE BOAT UNLESS SOMEBODY IS ACTUALLY LIVE THAT LIFE AND COULD FACTOR THAT IN SO THANK YOU THANK YOU NEXT DAN HI MY NAME IS DAN I'M ALMOST 40 YEAR RESIDENT OF HILTON HEAD ISLAND. I'M THE CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER OF THE PROFESSIONAL TENNIS REGISTRY AS WELL AS PROFESSIONAL PICKLEBALL REGISTRY. WE HAD OUR BIG EVENT HERE IN HILTON HEAD ISLAND.

WE PACKED THE SONESTA WHICH THAT WAS THE FIRST BIG EVENT HERE OVER $1,000,000 IN INCOME INTO INTO HILTON HEAD AND THEN WE FOLLOWED THAT UP WITH THE PR THE PICKLEBALL REGISTRY WHERE WE HAD ALMOST 300 PEOPLE. WE EXPECTING THAT NEXT YEAR. MR. MAYOR, IT'S TO PROBABLY BE CLOSE TO 400 PEOPLE AND SO THE ECONOMIC IMPACT FROM OUR BUSINESSES AND WE ALSO PADDLE AND PLATFORM TENNIS IS IS AND AS THE MANAGER KNOWS AND YOU KNOW AS WELL MR. MAYOR WE'RE BEING WOOED BY OTHER CITIES LEAVE AND WE DON'T WANT TO LEAVE I DON'T WANT TO LEAVE MY FAMILIES. YOU KNOW, I CONSIDER MYSELF AN ISLAND HERE EVEN THOUGH I'M NOT A NEYLAND NATIVE ISLANDER AND BUT NEED TO HAVE A HOME AND A HOME THAT'S REPRESENTATIVE OF AN INTERNATIONAL ORGANIZATION THAT IS ONE OF THE BEST IN THE WORLD AND SO I THINK THERE'S A WAY TO DO WHAT I KNOW IN TALKING I MEAN DAVID WE'VE BEEN TALKING FOR FIVE YEARS ABOUT THIS AND KNOW JOSH WHEN WHEN WHEN STEVE WAS HERE WE WERE TALKING ABOUT WE'VE KICKED THE CAN DOWN THE ROAD THAT CAN IS SO DENTED RIGHT NOW IT NEEDS TO TO GET WHOLE SO YOU

[03:00:03]

BUT THEY COULD COMING HERE AND THEY NEED TO BE COMING HERE BECAUSE.

YOU KNOW, WITH ALL DUE RESPECT, YOUR BASEBALL THING I THINK IT'S AMAZING, JACK BOY, YOU'RE LUCKY THAT THEY PUT TOGETHER THE TENNIS A LITTLE BIT OF WORK AND I'M HAPPY TO HELP YOU WITH THAT BECAUSE THAT'S WHAT I DO TENNIS AND PICKLEBALL SO ANYWAY ,YOU KNOW, I JUST GOT A CALL YESTERDAY FROM TOPEKA AND I'M AN EXPERT TRYING TO HELP THEM THEY'RE GETTING $5 MILLION TO GET A NEW PICKLEBALL AND TENNIS FACILITY FUNDS OUT THERE. THERE IS WAYS TO DO THIS RIGHT AND I'M WILLING TO DONATE MY TIME TO TO MAKE THAT HAPPEN. SO I HOPE ALL OF YOU WILL TOGETHER MY BOARD NEEDS AN ANSWER BASICALLY. DO YOU WANT US? DO YOU JUST WANT US TO MOVE? SO I'M HOPING AND PRAYING I'M GOING TO ITALY TO SPEAK ON PICKLEBALL AT THE ITALIAN OPEN AND HAVE AN AUDIENCE WITH THE POPE AND I'M GOING TO PRAY THAT YOU GUYS MAKE THE RIGHT DECISION. THANK YOU.

THANK YOU. THANK YOU. ANYBODY ELSE? YES, MAN. ALL RIGHT. I'M SICK OF ALL TO A SMALLER SCALE. YEAH. MY NAME IS LORRAINE SAGHIR AND I AM A BOARD MEMBER ALONG WITH MILLIE MARKS WITH HILTON HEAD ISLAND PICKLEBALL CLUB.

IT'S RUN THROUGH THE HILTON HEAD ISLAND RECREATION CENTER. OUR CLUB MEMBERSHIP FOR 2023 IS ALREADY OVER 400 MEMBERS AND IS GROWING WEEKLY ADDITIONS. DAILY WE HAVE HUNDREDS OF VISITORS THAT COME TO OUR ISLAND DAILY AND PLAY WITH US AND WE ESTIMATE THAT IN THE PAST YEAR THAT 25,000 GAMES OF PICKLEBALL WERE PLAYED ON OUR 11 COURTS BETWEEN THE REC CENTER AND ADRIANA. THESE ARE NOT DEDICATED PICKLE COURT PICKLEBALL COURTS THERE, JUST HARD SURFACE COURTS THAT WE PAINTED LINES ON. WE BRING IN PORTABLE NETS.

THERE'S TENNIS LINES, BASKETBALL AND CRACKS ALL OVER THE COURTS.

BUT WE GO OUT THERE AND PLAY AND THERE'S TONS OF US WE'VE RUN VERY SUCCESSFUL CLINICS FOR BEGINNERS. GET THEM STARTED. THE CLINICS WERE SO POPULAR THAT WE ACTUALLY HAD TO STOP IT FOR THIS SPRING BECAUSE WE DIDN'T HAVE ENOUGH COURT SPACE TO ACCOMMODATE ALL THE INTEREST. OUR CLUB IS VERY ACTIVE IN THE COMMUNITY. WE FACILITATE FOOD DRIVES FOR DEEP WELL WE RUN CLUB TOURNAMENTS AND THAT MONEY IS ALWAYS DONATED TO DIFFERENT CHARITIES AND ON THE ISLAND WE AN ANNUAL TRADITION AND WE BRING CHRISTMAS CAROLING TO VARIOUS ASSISTED LIVING FACILITIES WHICH DOESN'T SOUND LIKE MUCH BUT TO SEE THEIR SMILES IS JUST UNBELIEVABLE.

AND SO PLAYING PICKLEBALL FOR US IS NOT JUST PLAYING PICKLEBALL WE CALL IT OUR HILTON HEAD ISLAND PICKLEBALL FAMILY AS WE ALL KNOW IT'S ONE OF THE FASTEST GROWING SPORTS AND I AM A 25 YEAR TENNIS PLAYER AND I STILL PLAY MUCH AS TENNIS AS I DO PICKLEBALL EACH WEEK SO I'M NOT BIASED EITHER WAY THE NEW COURTS WOULD PROVIDE A GATHERING PLACE FOR THE RESIDENTS BRINGING US TOGETHER AND STRENGTHENING OUR SENSE OF COMMUNITY.

THERE'S ALSO AN OPPORTUNITY TO BRING REVENUE TO THE AREA THROUGH A TOURISM AND EVENT HOSTING. ALEX OUR CLUB PRESIDENT LITERALLY SATURDAY GOT A MESSAGE AN EMAIL FROM THE SOUTHERN PICKLEBALL ASSOCIATION SAYING THAT HE HEARD ABOUT NEW COURTS AND ALEX WAS LIKE I DON'T EVEN KNOW HE HEARD ABOUT IT OR THAT WE WERE PLANNING SORRY BUT CLUB STANDS READY TO ALSO ASSIST WITH ANYTHING ANY EVENTS THAT WOULD BE PLANNED AT THE FACILITIES A. FEW SUGGESTIONS FROM THE MEMBERS OF OUR PICKLEBALL CLUB WOULD BE ONE TO POSSIBLY THINK ABOUT LIGHTING FOR THE COURTS FOR A LONGER PLAY THE SHORTER DAYS COVERING SOME OF THE COURTS ADDITIONAL PARKING SPACES NEAR THE PICKLEBALL AREA TODAY I CALLED I SENT A TEXT ADRIANA THEY HAD OVER 30 CARS IN THAT PARKING LOT AND WE ONLY HAVE SEVEN COURTS SO THAT JUST KIND OF GIVES YOU AN IDEA TO MAKE SURE WE HAVE ENOUGH PARKING ALSO TO ADD ANOTHER PATH THAT IS MORE DIRECT TO CONNECT THE TWO SEPARATE AREAS TO HAVE A FAST YES UNLESS WE CAN GET THEM ALL TOGETHER LIKE YOU WERE SAYING AND ALSO WE'RE IN FAVOR OF KEEPING THE TWO COURTS AND NOT THE STADIUM. THANK YOU.

THANK YOU. I LOVE PICKLEBALL TOO. GOOD AFTERNOON.

HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY. AHMED WENT TO DUNLAP AND I'M REPRESENTING RESIDENTS GROUP

[03:05:06]

OUR GROUP HAD NOTHING BUT POSITIVE AND APPRECIATIVE REMARKS WHICH WE SHARED MANY OF YOU. WE'RE ALSO EXCITED ABOUT THE IMPROVEMENTS BEING BY TOWN STAFF TODAY FOR ISLANDERS. WHILE WE WOULD PREFER THAT THE TOWN NEGOTIATE WITH SOUTH CAROLINA TO REMOVE THE PARKING METERS ENTIRELY, WE ARE HAPPY WITH THE OUT OF THE BOX THINKING THAT WILL MOVE THE PUBLIC ACCESS PARKING UP BY FARLEY FIELD ROAD.

THIS WILL CREATE ADDITIONAL PARKING FOR RESIDENTS BEACH PASSES WHILE ALSO MEETING THE CURRENT REQUIREMENTS OF DEAC. IN ADDITION IT WILL MAKE IT MUCH EASIER FOR THE GATE MONITORS AS WILL THE ROUNDABOUT TO ALLOW NON BEACH PASS HOLDERS TO EASILY TURN AROUND TO LEAVE THE PARK. WHAT WE'RE NOT HAPPY ABOUT IS THE PLACEMENT OF THE PEDESTRIAN WALKING PATH. THE PURPOSE OF THE WALKING PATH IS TO RESOLVE THE SAFETY ISSUE OF PEDESTRIANS WALKING DOWN THE ROAD WHERE VEHICLES ARE DRIVING INTO THE PARK.

BY THE WALKING PATH STRAIGHT DOWN THE MIDDLE OF THE OTHER ISLANDERS PEDESTRIANS WILL NOW HAVE TO CROSS THE ROAD WHERE VEHICLES ARE NOT ONCE BUT TWICE.

UNTIL ALL OF THE IMPROVEMENTS ARE COMPLETE WHICH WE DON'T KNOW WHEN THAT WILL BE.

EVEN WITH THE NEW IMPROVEMENTS IT WILL REQUIRE PEDESTRIANS TO CROSS OVER THE ROAD PASSES RIGHT IN FRONT OF THE STEPS TO THE BOARDWALK. THIS DOES NOT RESOLVE THE SAFETY ISSUE. WE WANT ONLY WALKING PATH FOR THE PEDESTRIANS AND IT'S THE ONE SHOWN ON DRAFT B UP NEAR THE PROPERTY EDGE BETWEEN ISLANDERS BEACH AND BARONY.

THE PEDESTRIANS TODAY THAT ARE COMING INTO ISLANDERS BEACH PARK ARE WALKING OUT OF THAT ROYAL VILLAGE AND THEY'RE COMING DOWN THE ROAD. SO TO MAKE IT EASY FOR THEM THAT'S CLOSEST THAT THEY WOULD COME TO A WALKING PATH. THIS IS IMPORTANT NOT ONLY FOR TODAY BUT EVEN MORE IMPORTANT IN THE FUTURE. THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF PEDESTRIANS INCLUDING CHILDREN WALKING THROUGH ISLANDERS EVERY DAY DURING HIGH SEASON IF 15 WIMBLEDON CORN IS ALLOWED TO BE BUILT, THAT NUMBER OF PEDESTRIANS COULD DOUBLE ALONG WITH THE SAFETY ISSUE THAT GOES WITH IT. THE FACILITIES AT ISLANDERS ARE ALREADY OVERUSED IT CANNOT HANDLE AN ADDITIONAL 600 PLUS PEOPLE DAILY.

WE HAVE HEARD THE TOWN MEMBERS DISCUSS MANAGING THE BEACH EXPERIENCE MANY TIMES.

IF THERE'S REALLY NOTHING YOU CAN DO AT THIS POINT TO STOP THE BUILDING OF 166 TIMESHARES.

IT'S NOW TIME TO EXPLORE TO MANAGE THE CAPACITY AT ISLANDERS.

IN OUR VIEW THAT CAN ONLY BE HANDLED BY REDIRECTING THE VACATION HOURS AT 15 WIMBLEDON COURT TO DRAYSON BEACH OR BY IMPLEMENTING BY. THANK YOU.

THANK YOU. YOU KNOW WHAT FROM THE OTHER HALF.

IT REALLY IS MOVING FORWARD AND IN THE PAST WE KNOW THE TOWN WE SEE THE TOWN QUITE WITH THE TOWN AND ALSO HIS BODY IS CLEARLY AT THE THERE YOU GO. OH, I'LL GIVE YOU A FRESH THERE YOU GO. THANK YOU. APPRECIATE THAT.

NOW I FEEL LIKE I'M ON AMERICAN IDOL ON A TOWN SO THE TOWN COUNCIL MEMBERS HAVE ALSO AS A BODY AND AS INDIVIDUALS CLEARLY AND REPEATEDLY STATED ITS JOINT COMMITMENT TO A RENEWED FOCUS ON RESIDENTIAL ISSUES AND CONCERNS AND ENSURING THAT THE HILTON HEAD ISLAND BEACH EXPERIENCE IS IMPROVED AND PRESERVED SO TIME IS GROWING SHORT TO MAKE GOOD ON THOSE COMMITMENTS ACROSS THE ISLAND AS MUCH DEVELOPMENT ON AND OFF THE ISLAND ARE IN A CLEAR LINE OF SIGHT TO US ALL THAT INCLUDES THE IMMEDIATE AND PRESENT IMPACTS TO ISLANDERS FACILITIES AND PATHWAYS AND THOSE DECISIONS THE COUNCIL'S HAVE SET THE STAGE FOR BY YOUR IN THE PAST ON ZONING BY DECISIONS ON THE PAST ON ACCEPTING FUNDS FROM THE STATE OF SOUTH CAROLINA, THE RESIDENTS OF THE NORTH END NOT INTERESTED IN DUPLICATING CLINIC PINES CULTURE AND EXPERIENCE THAT ISLANDERS IT IS A SMALLER BEACH AREA WITH FEWER

[03:10:03]

MEMBERS OF TOWN COUNCIL AND TOWN MANAGER HAVE BEEN PRESENTED WITH AN OPERATIONS MANAGEMENT MODEL IN PLACE AT THE SOUTH CAROLINA STATE BEACHES AND OTHER SOUTH CAROLINA STATE PARKS. THIS MODEL IS CALLED THE USER FEE MODEL WHICH INCLUDES PEDESTRIANS AND WALK ONS ACCESS TO AND USE OF SOUTH CAROLINA MAINTAIN PATHWAYS AND FACILITIES. FURTHER THE STATE HAS RECOGNIZED AND ENCOURAGED THE TOWN IN THE FORM OF GENERAL PUBLIC USER FEES BY THE INSTALLATION, MAINTENANCE AND COLLECTION OF PARKING FEES FROM DIFFERENT METERS AT SEVERAL TOWN PARKING FACILITIES ADJACENT TO BEACHES TODAY THE TOWN IN SIMILAR FASHION HAS FOR AN EXTENDED PERIOD OF TIME ALREADY ENGAGED IN OPERATING A USER FEE MODEL FOR THE USE OF TOWN PATHWAYS AND FACILITIES AGENT ADJACENT TO BEACHFRONT SAND WATERFRONT AREAS IN THE FORM OF A BEACH PASS AND FEE FOR SAID PASS FURTHER THE TOWN HAS ALREADY MOVED FORWARD ON THE IMPLEMENTS PORTION OF A NEW TOWN WIDE PARKING PLAN WHICH WILL ALSO EXPAND FEES IN THE FORM OF PARKING CHARGES FOR VEHICLES WE WOULD POSIT IS NOT A LEAP TO INCLUDE PEDESTRIANS AND WALK ONS AS DOES THE STATE AND A USER FEE MODEL. THE TOWN HAS A USER FEE MODEL FOR PARKS ADJACENT TO THE BEACHES AGAIN IN THE FORM OF THAT PAY BEACH PASS WE RESPECTFULLY REQUEST THAT AS A TOWN'S GOVERNING BODY YOU LOOK AT ADDING WALK ONS AS AN OPTION TO NOT ONLY CONTROL CAPACITY BUT BENEFIT THE GENERAL PUBLIC USERS PARTICIPATING IN THE FUNDING NEEDED TO COVER THE MAINTENANCE, MAINTENANCE RESERVE STAFFING AND CAPITAL EXPENSES AT THE PARK ITSELF.

THEY WILL ALSO BE ABLE TO CONTRIBUTE TO THIS FEE TO THE COST OF BEACH MAINTENANCE PATROLS, TRASH EQUIPMENT AND THE LIKE. I WILL FORMALLY SUBMIT A DOCUMENT TO THE TOWN CLERK AS PART OF THIS RECORD THAT WAS REVIEWED WITH COUNCILMAN AIMES AND MANAGER ORLANDO AT A MEETING IN FEBRUARY 2022 AND MORE RECENTLY SHARED WITH SEVERAL COUNCIL MEMBERS IS A WAY FORWARD TO SOLVE THE IMPENDING CAPACITY ISSUES THAT WILL CERTAINLY ERODE THE BEACH EXPERIENCE YOU'RE CONSTITUENTS LOOK FORWARD TO THE TOWN COUNCIL'S FORWARD FACING ACTIONS TO THE COMING TSUNAMI USERS AND STRAIN ON CAPACITY AT ALL ISLANDS PARKS, FACILITIES AND PARTICULAR ISLANDERS IN IMPLEMENTING OR SOME OTHER SOLUTION TO ACTUALLY PLAN AND MANAGE THAT BEACH EXPERIENCE. THANK YOU.

THANK YOU. GOOD AFTERNOON. MAYOR CASTLE COUNCILMAN THE WOMEN AND MR. LANDOVER OUR TOWN MANAGER MY NAME IS CAROLYN STORE AND I'M A RESIDENT AND PRESIDENT OF COLLIERVILLE PROPERTY OWNERS ASSOCIATION I WANT TO SPEAK TO TODAY ABOUT THE PROPOSED PARKING ON FARLEY FIELD ROAD AS PART THE HONORS SPEECH PARK I AM OF THE SAME OPINION AS MY TWO COLLEAGUES HERE BUT I SPOKE WITH A NUMBER OF OUR RESIDENTS AND EVERYONE I HAVE SPOKEN HAS EXPRESSED SAFETY CONCERNS THAT THE PROPOSED PARKING ALONG FARLEY HILL ROAD FARLEY FIELD IS A BUSY STREET WITH BUSSES, TRUCKS AND SPEEDING CARS.

WE FEEL THAT THIS PROPOSED SOLUTION WILL PUT PEDESTRIANS AT RISK OF SERIOUS INJURY OR EVEN DEATH. WE FAIL TO UNDERSTAND HOW THIS IS ANY DIFFERENT TO THE PARKING AT BROOKS BEACH ROAD THAT WAS BASICALLY REMOVED DUE TO SAFETY REASONS.

WE ALSO QUESTIONED HOW MANY TREES WILL ACTUALLY HAVE TO BE REMOVED ALONG FARLEY FIELD ROAD TO ACCOMMODATE THIS PARKING SO WE'RE SOME OF MY OTHER COLLEAGUES HERE I'VE MENTIONED MY 15 WIMBLEDON. WE'RE GOING TO TAKE OUT ALL OF THOSE TREES.

SO NOW ARE WE GOING TO GET MORE TREES ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE ROAD AS WELL? SO ANYWAY, IT'S JUST SOMETHING TO TO BE CONCERNED WITH ANYTHING ELSE? NO, I THINK ONE OF THE A BETTER SOLUTION THAT WE WOULD LIKE TO PROPOSE IS THAT YOU DO SUCH OFF PORTION OF THE PARK AND HAVE THE METER PARKING STILL WITHIN THE PARK BUT WITH A SEPARATE ENTRANCE AND THAT WAY THE PEOPLE WHO USE THE METER PARKING WON'T IMPACT BASICALLY THE PARK IN GENERAL. I THINK IT IS INTERESTING AND I HAVE TIME SO I THINK IT IS INTERESTING THAT EVERYTHING THAT WE'VE TALKED ABOUT HERE TODAY OR AT LEAST THE PUBLIC HAS TALKED ABOUT PICKLEBALL AND YET HERE WE ARE WE HAVE TAKEN A MAJOR TENNIS FACILITY THAT WAS ON THE ISLAND AND WE'RE GOING TO TURN IT INTO TIMESHARES SO WE'RE GOING TO HAVE, YOU KNOW, 166 TIMESHARES WHERE BASICALLY WE HAD TENNIS BEFORE. EVERYBODY'S SAYING HEY, WE WANT TENNIS, WE WANT PICKLEBALL, WE WANT THESE FACILITIES. IT'S IT'S SAD.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME. THANK YOU. DO YOU HAVE ANYBODY ELSE THAT WANTS TO SPEAK IN REGARDS? YES. RIGHT.

HE'S I WISH I COULD PLAY FOR PICKLEBALL SO. I'M FRANK BABEL.

I'M A LOCAL BIKE GUY AND I'M NOT HERE TO CRITICIZE. I THINK THE TOWN STAFF MAKES A

[03:15:06]

BUT I DO HAVE SOME COMMENTS AND I'LL JUST GO THROUGH THEM VERY QUICKLY GIVEN THE TIME WE HAVE CROSSINGS PARK I LOVE THE IDEA OF A PUMP TRACK. THAT'S A GREAT MY CONCERN ABOUT WHERE IT IS IS THAT IT'S ON OUR ROAD AND I'M AFRAID ABOUT KIDS GOING ACROSS OUR ROAD AROUND A BLIND CORNER. I WOULD MOVE THAT TO SOMEPLACE LIKE PEMBROKE WHERE YOU HAVE A UTILITY EASEMENT PUT SOME OF THAT STUFF OVER THERE WITH THE KIDS ARE THE KIDS FOR THE MOST PART IN THE NORTH END THAT WOULD USE THAT PUT IT UP THERE AND PUT IT UNDER THERE.

UTILITY EASEMENT LONG PEMBROKE IS A NICE AREA I THINK IT WOULD IT WOULD GO GREAT SHOW SHELTER COVE COMMUNITY PARK YOU HIT A HOME RUN ERIC ATTABOY. TEN YEARS AGO I RECOMMENDED A BIKE CORRAL. IT DIDN'T WORK. TAKE IT OUT, REPURPOSE THE BIKE RACKS AND SPREAD THEM ALL AROUND SHELTERED COVE COMMUNITY PARK I MEAN WHATEVER THE YOU KNOW THE PARK IS AND KEEP THEM AWAY WHERE THE EVENTS PLANNING ARE BECAUSE WHAT FRANK DOES OF COURSE HE PUTS FENCES AROUND WITH THE BIKE RACKS AT THE SIDE OF THE FENCE SO HE CAN'T PARK SO MAKE SURE THE BIKE RACKS ON THE OTHER SIDE OF WHERE THE FENCES ARE GOING TO GO AND YOU CAN USE THEM AND TURN IT INTO A PICNIC AREA. I LOVE TO HAVE PICNICS THERE SOMETHING LIKE THAT JUST REPURPOSE IT. ISLANDERS BEACH WE HAD AS I REMEMBER THE SAME PROBLEM WE HAD AND SEA PINES OH MY GOD HAVE SO MANY BIKES, SO MANY CARS. WE DIDN'T TALK ABOUT BIKES THEN VERY MUCH BUT WHAT WE DID A TAR BEACH AND THE BEACH CLUB IS PUT IT IN A SEPARATE PATH. IT WAS GOING TO BE TWO FEET.

I GOT IT TO BE DECENT SIZED THING AND WE HAVE A BIKE PATH FOR THE BIKES AND WE HAVE A PEDESTRIAN PATH FOR PEDESTRIANS SO THEY DON'T MIX AND THE BIKE PATH GOES OUT TO THE BEACH AND IT COMES BACK FROM THE BEACH AND THE PEDESTRIANS GO OVER HERE SO THEY DON'T MIX AND BANG AND ALL THAT SORT OF THING. SO I REALLY MAKE SURE YOU TRY TO SEPARATE IT AND I WOULD HAVE THE BEACH PATH GO TO THE BEACH OKAY AND HAVE A PARKING SPOT WHERE YOU CAN PUT A HUNDRED OR 200 BIKES THERE THAT'S NOT ALEXA. IT'S THE ISLANDERS BEACH.

IT'S NOT EXCLUSIVE BEACH. IT'S A BEACH FOR ISLANDERS AND WE ARE NOT USING LEVERAGING AMOUNT OF BIKES THAT ARE OUT THERE. PEOPLE ALWAYS ASK WHERE DO WE GET TO THE BEACH ON BIKES WE HAVE SO MANY PEOPLE THAT COULD BE RIDING BIKES INSTEAD OF BUILDING NEW YOU KNOW, PARKING PLACES AND HAVING MORE BUSSES WE NEED TO THINK ABOUT PROMOTING IT. WE DON'T DO THAT. WE NEED TO PRODUCE FACILITIES TO SUPPORT IT AND LAST I THINK WE HAVE A WE HAVE A GREAT PLANNERS, WE HAVE A GREAT MAINTENANCE GROUP, WE HAVE A GREAT TOWN MANAGER. WE GOT A LOT OF GREAT THINGS GOING BUT WE DO NOT HAVE A DEPARTMENT THAT IS RESPONSIBLE FOR PARKS AND RECREATION AND WE NEED TO TAKE A GOOD LOOK. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. THANK YOU AND MY NAME IS PHIL LARSEN. I'VE BEEN COMING TO THE ISLAND SINCE 69, MANY YEARS AND NOW I'M A RESIDENT. AFTER COMING HERE FOR MANY YEARS, WHAT BROUGHT US TO THE ISLAND INITIALLY IS JUST BEAUTY OF IT AND REALLY JUST APPRECIATE THE ISLAND HAS BEEN PRESERVED ITS NATURE AND JUST IT BECOME LIKE SOME OTHER PLACES THAT WE KNOW OF THAT ARE DESIRABLE SO REALLY APPRECIATE THAT THAT'S WHAT CAUSED US TO MOVE.

MY WIFE AND I MOVED HERE WHEN WE RETIRED. I THINK ONE GREAT ADDITION TO THE ISLANDERS PARK IS THE AREA FOR GOLF CARTS SOMETHING I JUST DIDN'T REALLY EXPECT TO BUT I THINK IT'S GREAT. I'M JUST NOT SURE IF THERE'S BEEN A STUDY OR SOMEBODY LOOKING AT YOU. HOW WOULD THAT BE USED? I THINK IT'S A GREAT GREEN INITIATIVE OBVIOUSLY. LIKE THE FORMER GENTLEMAN SAID, YOU KNOW, BICYCLES GET THE PARK WOULD BE GREAT. I THINK GOLF CARTS ARE ENVIRONMENTALLY YOU KNOW, THAT'S GOOD GREEN INITIATIVE. HOWEVER, WE'RE BEING I LIVE IN ON WIMBLEDON COURT IN THE LINKS AREA WE HAVE 28 UNITS IN THERE. MOST OF THE PEOPLE THAT BOUGHT IN THERE HAVE GOLF CARTS AND MOST OF US LIKE. ONE OF THE REASONS WHY WE BOUGHT THERE IS BECAUSE WE COULD HAVE A GOLF CART, WE COULD DRIVE TO THE ISLANDERS PARK.

HOWEVER, BECAUSE WE RENT OUR PLACE FOR ONE DAY OR MORE WE ARE RESTRICTED FROM GETTING A BEACH PASS THERE AS YOU KNOW. AND THAT WAS SOMETHING THAT WAS PASSED THIS PAST YEAR.

SO WHAT I WOULD REQUEST FROM THE TOWN COUNCIL IS TO MAYBE TAKE ANOTHER LOOK AT AND REALLY LOOK AT YOU KNOW, WHAT'S THE REALLY POTENTIAL FOR HOW MANY GOLF CARTS? I MEAN THERE'S A VERY SMALL AREA OF THE PORT ROYAL VILLAGE AND DOWN IN FOLLY FIELD THOSE ARE ONLY PEOPLE THAT COULD REALLY GET TO THE UP TO THE ISLANDERS WITH A GOLF CART.

BUT I DON'T THINK IT WOULD BE OVERRUN. I MEAN I'VE NEVER SEEN MORE THAN MAYBE FIVE OR SIX GOLF CARTS THERE AT ANY GIVEN TIME AND I APPRECIATE THEIR SEVEN

[03:20:03]

AND IF THERE WOULD BE A WAY TO ALLOW US EVEN THOUGH WE DO RENT SOME TO TO USE A GOLF CART THERE, I DON'T THINK IT WOULD BE. YOU'VE GOT 2425 SPOTS HERE ON THE ON THE MAP OR MAYBE YOU TRY IT FOR YOU KNOW, TRY IT FOR A YEAR AND SAY, YOU KNOW, LET'S LET'S GIVE THIS A SHOT. LET'S SEE IF IF YOU KNOW INDEED WORKS, YOU KNOW, BECAUSE THE REST OF US AT THE LINKS WE'RE TO IF WE CAN'T GO TO THE BEACH I MEAN THERE'S NO POINT IN HAVING A GOLF SO WE'RE GOING TO HAVE A BUNCH OF GOLF CARTS BEING SOLD THERE SO I WOULD JUST DO THAT AND ONE COMMENT I'D LIKE TO MAKE I'M A PICKLEBALL PLAYER WELL AND PART OF THE PICKLEBALL CLUB IN TERMS OF PROGRAM PICKLEBALL IS DIFFERENT THAN TENNIS OR SOME OTHER SPORTS. IT'S VERY VERY VERY SOCIAL AND IT REALLY DOESN'T WORK WELL WHEN YOU HAVE MULTIPLE KIND OF AREAS AND COURTS SEPARATED IT YOU KIND OF ALL COME TOGETHER IN ONE AREA AND THEN YOU KIND OF GO OUT INTO THE COURT TOGETHER.

SO I WOULD I WOULD ENCOURAGE YOU TO MAYBE TAKE A LOOK AT THAT WHERE YOU GOT SIX COURTS ON ONE SIDE AND 18 ON THE OTHER . SEE IF THERE'S A WAY TO CONNECT AND MAKE IT WORK MORE FOR THE PICKLEBALL COMMUNITY. THANK YOU.

SOMEBODY ELSE WANTS TO SPEAK IN REGARDS TO THE THE PARK PLANS. HELLO.

THANK YOU FOR HAVING ME. OKAY. SO MY NAME IS CARL BRADEN, 25 YEAR CHAPLAIN RESIDENT. I'D LIKE TO ASK THE CURRENT COUNCIL TO PLEASE HONOR THE HARD WORK OF PREVIOUS TOWN COUNCIL PLANNERS WHO WORKED WITH PUBLIC TENNIS INC TO CREATE THESE BEAUTIFUL TENNIS FOR THIS PARTICULAR UNDERSERVED OF OFF PLANTATION HISTORIC COMMUNITY OF CHAPLIN. MORE COURTS WOULD BE GREAT FOR MARSHLAND BUT PLEASE LEAVE OUR CHAPLAIN PUBLIC TENNIS COURTS WHERE THEY ARE BESIDES THE EMPTY TRACK ACROSS BEACH ROAD HAS MORE THAN ENOUGH SPACE AND THEY COULD ALL BE PUT THERE LEAVING THE TENNIS WHERE IT IS AND IT YOU KNOW, I'M JUST NOT SURE HOW THINGS WENT FROM THE TENNIS FACILITY AND ADD A PICKLEBALL FACILITY TO PAINT OVER THE TENNIS COURTS WITH PICKLEBALL COURTS PLUS ADDING YET MORE PICKLEBALL COURTS ACROSS INGLETON BEACH ROAD AS WELL.

SO JUST A GIANT PICKLEBALL COMPLEX ZERO TENNIS THE LOCATION IS IDEAL FOR TENNIS A NICE OCEAN BREEZE WHICH IS WHY IT'S ALSO DESIRABLE DESIRABLE FOR PICKLEBALL.

I UNDERSTAND BUT THIS PART DOES NOT HAVE TO BE ONE GIGANTIC PICKLEBALL DESTINATION.

YOU CAN INSTEAD A FEW COURTS ON THE SINGLETON DRAG AND ADD MORE COURTS IN COMBINATION WITH TENNIS ON THE MARSHLAND TRACK THE SORT OF DUAL SPORTS RACKET SPORTS FACILITY.

BUT THIS CURRENT DESIGN ACTUALLY TAKES AWAY OUR LOCAL TENNIS COURTS AND TAKES THE SINGLETON TRACT AS WELL ALL FOR PICKLEBALL. GOODBYE, TENNIS.

PLEASE LEAVE OUR CHAPLIN TENNIS COURTS WHERE THEY ARE. I I'D APPRECIATE IT.

THANK YOU. THANK ANYBODY ELSE WISH TO SPEAK IN REGARDS TO THE PARKS AND PLANS. OKAY, SO WE'RE GOING TO GO ON MOVE ON TO APPEARANCE BY CITIZENS JUST A REMINDER TO THOSE WHO ADDRESS COUNCIL EACH CITIZEN HAS 3 MINUTES TO ADDRESS COUNCIL. AT THE END OF 3 MINUTES YOU'RE YOU'RE ASKED INCLUDE YOUR COMMENTS. CITIZENS ARE ASKED TO MAINTAIN A DECORUM SUITABLE FOR THE MEETING AND REFRAIN FROM USING PROFANE ABUSIVE OR OBSCENE LANGUAGE.

IF YOU HAVE ANY DOCUMENTS FOR TOWN COUNCIL PLEASE GIVE THAT TO THE TOWN CLERK.

AFTER YOU FINISH YOUR COMMENTS. KRISTA, YOU HAVE ANYONE SIGNED UP TO SPEAK TODAY? YES, SIR. MR. SIMPSON SIMPSON. MOVING ON.

KEITH SLEDGE. MR. SLEDGE, THANK YOU FOR THE OPPORTUNITY TO SPEAK TODAY.

I WANT TO TALK TO YOU OUR COMMUNITY BRADLEY CIRCLE BECAUSE WE'RE ADJACENT TO THE CHAPLIN PARK. WE'RE ACTUALLY ON THE FOLLY CREEK MARSH AND I THINK YOU'RE ALL AWARE THAT THE DEVELOPMENT THERE HAS GOTTEN OUTRAGEOUS. THE PURPOSE OF THE ALAMO CANNOT BE DIRECTLY CONTRADICTED BY POOR WRITING THE ORIGINAL DOCUMENT OR BY SUBSEQUENT CHANGES MADE EVEN GOOD INTENT. WHAT'S HAPPENED IN OUR NEIGHBORHOOD IS WE WERE DEVELOPED UNDER R.D. AT ONE POINT AND THREE LARGE HOUSES WAY 45 FEET WERE ALLOWED TO BE BUILT UNDER RESORT DEVELOPMENT BUT YET THEY WERE ALLOWED TO HAVE PARKING UNDER RESIDENTIAL

[03:25:03]

NOW WE'RE IN DANGER OF BEING OVERDEVELOPED. MORE WITH MAYBE FOUR OR FIVE MORE LARGE HOUSES BEING BUILT ON ONE AND A QUARTER ACRES AT THE ENTRANCE TO OUR SUBDIVISION . SO WE'RE FACED WITH SAME SITUATION AS WE WERE AGAIN.

NOW THERE ARE POTENTIALLY SIX LOTS TO OUR D AND FOR OUR M EIGHT WHICH ARE OWNED BY THE SAME DEVELOPER AND THIS IS AN EMERGENCY SITUATION THAT WE HAVE TO ADDRESS.

THERE WAS A DOCUMENT WRITTEN TWO AND A HALF YEARS AGO LESSONS LEARNED ADDRESSED TO THE THEN TOWN MANAGER AND OTHERS AND IT HAD RECOMMENDATIONS AT THE END OF THE DOCUMENT ONLY ONE OF THOSE IS NOW BEING CONSIDERED.

THE OTHERS ARE STILL IN THE PLANNING STAGES AND HERE WE ARE NOW THIS LAND THAT IS OWNED HAS BEEN AND HAS BEEN STAMPED AND IS READY FOR DEVELOPMENT. AND THE ONLY THING THAT'S GOING TO STOP THAT FROM US HAVING A WALL OF BUILDINGS AND I SENT YOU ALL AN EMAIL THIS MORNING SHOWING YOU THE VIEW FROM MY BACK PORCH I HAVE A WALL OF . PEOPLE ASK US IF THOSE ARE PART OF THE SURF LODGE YET WHEN THE SURF WATCHES DEVELOPED DEVELOPED AND ALREADY THEY HAD HAVE ENORMOUS PARKING LOTS ONE SPACE PER BEDROOM. WE CAN'T LET MORE THINGS DEVELOPED. WE CAN'T DEVELOP SEVEN AND 10,000 SQUARE FOOT HOUSES ON 5500 SQUARE FOOT LOTS. I NEED Y'ALL AS A TOWN COUNCIL TO DIRECT MR. ORLANDO TO TAKE IMMEDIATE ACTION ON OUR BEHALF . Y'ALL EMPTIED YOUR POCKETS OF $7 MILLION TO HELP SOME OF OUR NEIGHBORS THE STREET. WE'RE NOT ASKING FOR MONEY.

WE'RE BEGGING FOR HELP. THIS IS AN EMERGENCY SITUATION. I NEED YOU TO TAKE 5 MINUTES AFTERNOON TODAY AND DIRECT MR. TO DIRECT HIS STAFF TO FIX OUR NEIGHBORHOOD.

THERE ARE WAYS IT CAN BE DONE AND THERE IN THAT DOCUMENT. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR TIME. THANK YOU, KRISTA. MR. SIMPSON MARK SIMPSON GOOD AFTERNOON. I WISH I HAD HEARD THAT THE SOME OF THE PRIOR BUT I KNOW Y'ALL SWITCHED. I'M HERE ON BEHALF OUR CLIENT OUR FIRM'S CLIENT TRANSCON INDUSTRIES AND THEY ARE REACTING TO THIS SUMMARY BECAUSE WE DIDN'T HAVE THE ACTUAL UNTIL TODAY. THIS SUMMARY MAKES THINGS SOUND A LITTLE BIT DIFFERENTLY.

I'M TALKING ABOUT 60 TO 1 OR TWO BUT THE ACTUAL LANGUAGE DOES NOT SEEM TO CONTAIN THIS CITIZEN APPROVAL. SO I'M WE CERTAINLY THINK THAT THE OTHER MODE SHOULD BE SOMETHING THAT OUR FOLKS CAN RELY ON. SO WE WILL BE IN OPPOSITION TO THIS CHANGE AND DON'T KNOW THE TIMING OF THE EFFECTIVENESS EITHER.

SO THERE'S THAT IF SOMEONE COULD MAYBE TELL US IF IT WERE TO PASS WOULD WE BE GRANDFATHER THERE? YEAH, I DIDN'T ADDRESS THAT IN OUR BILL THAT WOULD PROVIDE FOR WE'LL ADDRESS THAT LATER EXCUSE ME ADDRESS THAT IN PRESENTATION.

OKAY. OKAY. BUT THIS IS AS TO THAT AND MAYBE AFTER THE PRESENTATION WE MIGHT HAVE MORE TO TALK ABOUT. I'LL GET ANOTHER OPPORTUNITY I WOULD THINK FOR PUBLIC COMMENT. YEAH THAT WOULD BE A QUESTION AND THE FACT THAT WE DIDN'T SEE THE LANGUAGE UNTIL THIS MORNING RIGHT AROUND NOON REALLY YOU KNOW TAKES AWAY FROM THE ABILITY OF EFFECTIVELY COMMENT BUT IT LOOKS LIKE WHAT YOU'RE DOING TAKING THE STAFF APPROVAL AND MOVING IT TO PLANNING COMMISSION JUST WITH RECOMMENDATION AND STAFF THIS HAS GONE AND IT WILL BE ADDRESSED BUT IT HAS GONE THROUGH THE PROCEDURES THE PUBLIC PLANNING COMMITTEE. THAT'S NOT WHAT I MEAN. EXCUSE ME, MR..

I MEAN THIS PROPOSAL ADDS AN APPROVAL FOR THESE CERTAIN THINGS THAT PLAN IT PLANNING COMMISSION. WHAT IS IT? YEAH.

RATHER THAN JUST A STAFF LEVEL AND ONE OF THE THINGS ABOUT POSTING SOMETHING AT THE FRONT ENTRANCE OF THE SUBDIVISION MAKES IT SEEM LIKE THIS IS A VERY PEOPLE MIGHT THINK THIS IS

[03:30:02]

THANK YOU SO MUCH SIR, THE LAST ONE IS MISS CARPER. RHONDA CARPER HELLO EVERYBODY.

I APPRECIATE YOU STAYING AWAKE . I'M JUST HERE TO REITERATE SOME OF OBVIOUSLY WHAT KEITH HAS SAID AND WHAT YOU HAVE HEARD FROM ME OVER THE PAST EIGHT YEARS WHICH NOT MANY OF YOU HAVE BEEN HERE FOR THE EIGHT YEARS EXCEPT FOR A FEW DAVID TIM SO BASICALLY IT'S NICE TO SEE ALL THE PARK STUFF AND THEN WE'RE ALWAYS TRYING TO MAKE THE COMMUNITY AND THE ISLAND BUT WHEN IT COMES TO ONE THING WE'RE FALLING INCREDIBLY SHORT AND IT'S THE OVERDEVELOPMENT AND I KNOW IT'S BEEN BROUGHT UP QUITE A FEW INSTANCES.

WE KEEP BEING TOLD TO STOP LOOKING AT THE PAST TO LOOK FORWARD BUT TOWN KEEPS REPEATING THE PAST. THEY'RE TELLING US THAT THEY'RE GOING TO PROTECT OUR RESIDENTS.

WE'VE GONE THROUGH THREE MAYORS THAT HAVE PROMISED TO PROTECT OUR NEIGHBORHOOD AND NO ONE HAS DONE ANYTHING FOR US. I KNOW THINGS ARE CHANGING AND I'M HOPING THEY KEEP GOING BUT I FEEL IT'S IMPORTANT FOR US JUST KEEP COMING UP HERE AND SAYING THINGS AND MAKING SURE THAT WE'RE NOT DISAPPEARING. IT'S TIME TO DO THE RIGHT THING.

IT'S TIME TO FIX THE WRONGS AND NOT JUST KEEP APOLOGIZING OUR FIGHT STARTED.

IN 2015. SO FOR EIGHT LONG YEARS MANY MEETINGS CAUGHT LAWSUITS LAWYERS MEETINGS, TOWN PHONE CALLS, COUNTLESS EMAILS I KNOW YOU HAVE MANY YOUR INBOXES FROM ME AND I'M HOPING AFTER THE TOWN HAS GONE AND FORCED US TO GO INTO A LAWSUIT THAT YOU WILL AGAIN DO THE RIGHT THINGS THIS IS EMINENT THERE WAS A DOCUMENT THAT WAS DRAWN UP AFTER SOME OF THE STUFF THAT HAPPENS OUR COMMUNITY IN 2020 LESSONS LEARNED BY CIRCLE IT'S EMBARRASSING TO BE EXAMPLE ON THE ISLAND BUT I KNOW BECAUSE OF US THINGS ARE CHANGING YOU'VE GONE AND YOU WENT AND BOUGHT THAT LAND OVER OFF JONESVILLE AND BASICALLY NANOSECOND PROTECTING THEM AND I'M HAPPY AND GLAD THAT BEING DONE BUT WE NEED HELP.

WE NEED BE PROTECTED. SO I'VE CHOSEN THIS AS MY HOME AND I FEEL LIKE IT'S BEEN RUINED AND THAT I AM BEING PUT IN A POSITION EVERY SINGLE DAY WHERE CANNOT ENJOY MY QUALITY OF LIFE AND I'M NOT ASKING FOR A LOT, I'M JUST ASKING FOR US TO DO SOME CHANGES AND TO MAKE SURE THAT WE HAVE THE THINGS THAT THE ALAMO HAD PROMISED US IN THE PAST AND THAT THE ALAMO GOES AND MAKE SOME CHANGES TO MAKE SURE THAT THESE BIG MONSTROSITIES DON'T CONTINUE TO BE IN A RESIDENTIAL COMMUNITY. THEY DON'T DESERVE TO BE THERE. THEY SHOULDN'T BE THERE.

THEY LOOK IN CHARACTER. IN FACT EIGHT YEARS AGO WHEN I CAME IN PRESENTED PEOPLE DIDN'T EVEN KNOW WHERE BRADLEY CIRCLE WAS AND THEY DECIDED THAT POINT TO CHANGE US TO AN RV COMMUNITY. SO I STAND UP HERE AND PLEAD WITH YOU THIS IS EMINENT.

IT NEEDS TO BE DONE. WE DON'T NEED TO WAIT 30 DAYS, THREE WEEKS, 90 DAYS, FOUR YEARS AGAIN. IT SHOULD HAPPEN TODAY. THANK YOU THANK YOU SIR.

[7. New Business ]

[03:35:01]

IT'S A PRACTICE THAT WE REQUEST OWNERS CONSENT AS PART OF OUR APPLICATION PROCESS AND THIS THIS WOULD JUST MAKE IT A REQUIREMENT WITHIN THE CODE TO HAVE OWNERS FOR A MINOR SUBDIVISION AND THEN THE LAST PROPOSED AMENDMENT IS TO PROVIDE SOME STANDARDS FOR DEVIATIONS FROM A PREVIOUSLY APPLIED SUBDIVISION AND THAT IS THE REQUIREMENT FOR THIS IS TO RECOMMEND THAT THESE CHANGES GO THROUGH THE PLANNING COMMISSION THAT THERE'S PUBLIC NOTICE IS POSTED AND IT ALSO PROVIDES SOME CRITERIA FOR THE PLANNING COMMISSION.

CONSIDER THESE CHANGES FROM A PREVIOUSLY PLATTED SUBDIVISION AND THESE ARE CHANGES WHEN IT WOULD RESULT A CHANGE IN DENSITY WITHIN THAT SUBDIVISION OR IT WOULD IT WOULD CREATE ADDITIONAL LOTS WITHIN THAT SUBDIVISION OR CHANGES TO THE COMMON OPEN SPACE OR COMMON AMENITIES WITHIN THAT SUBDIVISION. SO THAT'S A REALLY BRIEF HIGH LEVEL OVERVIEW IF THERE ARE ANY QUESTIONS TO THOSE AND I SHOULD ADD THAT THESE AMENDMENTS HAVE GONE THROUGH THE ALAMO COMMITTEE AS WELL AS THE PLANNING COMMISSION PUBLIC HEARING AND THROUGH THE PUBLIC PLANNING COMMITTEE. THANK YOU.

DO YOU HAVE ANYTHING ELSE THAT WANTED TO ADD TO THAT? YES, SIR.

[03:40:02]

YEAH AND A LOT OF HUNGRY PEOPLE HERE IN THE CROWD BUT I JUST WANT TO POINT OUT BECAUSE I KNOW THAT THERE'S SOME BASED ON THE PUBLIC COMMENT IT'S JUST WANT TO LET EVERYONE KNOW AND I MAY JUST POP THIS THESE COMMENTS AT THE PUBLIC PLANNING COMMITTEE PLANNING COMMISSION WE KNOW THE ALAMO IS NOT PERFECT. WE KNOW IT NEEDS A COMPLETE OVERHAUL. OUR COUNCIL IDENTIFIED THIS AS A NUMBER ONE PRIORITY ON THEIR LIST AND THE STRATEGIC ACTION PLAN HERE RECENTLY WE MET YESTERDAY OUR OUR TEAM TO TALK ABOUT GROWTH FRAMEWORK AND DISTRICT PLANS AND TO DOVE IN TO COMPLETE THAT WORK.

WE HAVE A SHORT FUZE 30 6090 DAYS TO REALLY ADDRESS THE ALAMO ESPECIALLY IN AREAS WHERE THERE IS THAT IMPACT TO RESIDENTIAL COMMUNITIES. AND SO WE KNOW JONESVILLE AN AREA OF PRIORITY THE OTHER BEACH COMMUNITY RESIDENTIAL BEACH COMMUNITIES BE IN THAT SHORT TERM AND THEN COMPLETELY OVERALL CODE AND END OF THIS YEAR SO WE'RE DEEP INTO DISTRICT PLANNING AND LOOK FORWARD TO WORKING WITH THE DIFFERENT COMMUNITIES TO IDENTIFY THE DISTRICT PLANS OF FUTURE LAND USE AND SUCH THAT TOGETHER FOR THE RIGHT FABRIC THEN MOVING FORWARD I JUST WANT TO SHARE THAT COMMENT.

THANK YOU. THANK YOU. DO WE HAVE A MOTION FOR TO APPROVE IN A SECOND I'LL MOVE THAT MOTION AS STATED. DO WE HAVE A SECOND? SECOND. THANK YOU. ANY DISCUSSION FROM COUNCIL MEMBERS? YEAH I. I WOULD LIKE THE STAFF TO CLARIFY THE LAST ITEM PROVIDES FOR DEVIATION FROM PREVIOUSLY PLATTED SUBDIVISIONS BECAUSE OF THE PUBLIC COMMENT IT'S MY UNDERSTANDING THAT A SUBDIVISION PLAT HAD BEEN APPROVED PEOPLE BOUGHT PROPERTY ACCORDING TO THAT SUBDIVISION PLAN THAT CORRECT UP TO THAT POINT AND NOW YES AND NOW AN OWNER OF A LOT WANTS TO SUBDIVIDE A LOT WITHIN THAT SUBDIVISION IS THAT CORRECT WHAT'S HAPPENED IS OWNER BOUGHT A SMALL SLIVER OF AN ADJACENT PROPERTY AND THAT WAS REPLANTED TWO LOTS WERE REPLANTED INTO ONE SLIGHTLY LARGER BLOCK AND THERE WAS A REPLANTING OF FOUR LOTS AND A FOUR LOTS CHANGING THE CONFIGURE OF THE BOUNDARY LINES THAT'S ALL CLASSIFIED AS NON DEVELOPMENT IT DOESN'T CONSTITUTE DEVELOPMENT IT'S JUST A LEGAL DOCUMENT FOR THE REPLANTING THE ADDITION OF A SMALL PORTION OF PROPERTY INTO THAT MIX WOULD ALLOW THERE'S ENOUGH ACREAGE THERE BASED ON THE EIGHT UNITS PER ACRE TO ACHIEVE ANOTHER DWELLING UNIT. AND SO THE IDEA BEHIND THIS AMENDMENT IS WHEN YOU HAVE THOSE CHANGES THAT IMPACT THE THE POTENTIALLY IMPACTED NUMBER OF UNITS OR DENSITY AS WELL AS THE ABILITY TO ADD IT AT A LOT IF ADD A LOT YOU'RE GOING TO GO THROUGH THE MODERATE LOSE A MINOR SUBDIVISION REVIEW PROCESS BUT IF IT'S JUST PLAT STAMPING THEN THERE'S NOT THAT PUBLIC PROCESS AND SO THAT'S THE RATIONALE BRINGING THIS THROUGH PLANNING COMMISSION FOR THEIR REVIEW OF CRITERIA. THANK YOU. ANY OTHER COMMENTS? YES. JUST SINCE THAT PARTICULAR PIECE IS BEING DISCUSSED.

THIS IS A GREAT EXAMPLE OF THAT SEAN GAVE BUT THIS PARTICULAR ELEMENT HAS BEEN BEING DISCUSSED FOR QUITE SOME TIME AND IT RELATE TO ANY PARTICULAR NEIGHBORHOOD OR PIECE OF PROPERTY OR OWNER IT IS IN GENERAL WAS DISCUSSED TO PREVENT EXACTLY WHAT YOU DESCRIBE DAVID A SUBDIVISION THAT CAME THROUGH THE NORMAL PROCESS ANY THAT COMES THROUGH THE NORMAL PROCESS AND STAFF EVALUATES THE ISSUES AND TO CREATE A SUBDIVISION THE STORMWATER ALL OF THE REST THERE AND DECIDED TO STAMP IT AND THEN SOME TIME ANY TIME IN THE FUTURE IT BEING CHANGED WITHOUT THOSE SAME CONSIDERATIONS BEING MADE AND THE ULTIMATE DETRIMENT TO THE NEIGHBORHOODS ACROSS THE ISLAND IN TERMS OF OVERDEVELOPMENT OVERUSE OF THE CAPACITY OF THE SEWER SYSTEMS WATER AND THE THE LIKE AND SO IN THE EXAMPLE FOR

[03:45:08]

WE HAVE JONES VILLAGE ROAD THAT WE'RE ACTIVELY ENGAGED AND TAKING GREAT CARE TO MAKE SURE THAT THAT HISTORIC NEIGHBORHOOD IN THAT BEAUTIFUL RESIDENTIAL NEIGHBORHOOD IS PRESERVED FOR THE FUTURE. WE HAVE ISSUES AND FOLLY. WE HAVE ISSUES IN HICKORY LANE DOWN IN SOUTH BEACH THAT IS BEING OVERDEVELOPED THE SAME SORT OF PROBLEMS AND THESE HOMES THESE DEVELOPMENTS AREN'T TO THE BENEFIT THE RESIDENTS IN ANY WAY, SHAPE OR FORM.

IN FACT THEY ARE SEVEN, EIGHT, NINE, TEN BEDROOM RENTAL UNITS CORPORATIONS AND SO IF WE ARE TRULY MAKING A PRIORITY AND CONCERNED ABOUT THE FUTURE OF HILTON HEAD THE THINGS AND THE ACTIONS THAT WE'RE TAKING, THE SUGGESTIONS MR. SLEDGE HAS MADE IN HIS DOCUMENT THAT FRANKLY REFER BACK A DOCUMENT THAT WAS CREATED LESSONS LEARNED ON BRADLEY CIRCLED CIRCLE TEN THE LAST EIGHT YEARS OF MISTAKES THAT HAVE BEEN MADE NEED BE FOLLOWED THROUGH WITH EXPEDITIOUSLY AND WITH OR WITHOUT ANY DELAY. SO THIS IS ALL GONE THROUGH PROPER PROCEDURE. IT'S AN WIDE PROBLEM AND WE OUGHT TO TODAY PASS ORDINANCE MAKE HILTON HEAD ISLAND A RESIDENTS FIRST COMMUNITY THAT CARES ABOUT THE PRESERVING THE ENVIRONMENT AND ESTABLISHING A FUTURE FOR THE GENERATIONS TO COME.

THANK YOU. THE OTHER COMMENTS FROM COUNCIL I'M NOT A MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC PLANNING COMMITTEE SO I DIDN'T GET A CHANCE TO ASK A COUPLE OF QUESTIONS THAT I HAVE HERE SO JUST BEAR ME FOR A MOMENT HERE AND I KNOW THAT WE'VE TAKEN ON A BIGGER UNDERTAKING OF CHANGE IN THE ALAMO SO JUST HELP ME OUT WITH THESE QUESTIONS AS IT RELATES TO THAT EXERCISE AS WELL AS ALL THE REPLACING THE JUNE TRAFFIC ENDS WITH JULY TWO WELL I CAN APPRECIATE YOU AND I WILL PROBABLY GIVE YOU A BIGGER NUMBER.

I KNOW WE TALKED A LITTLE BIT ABOUT THE ACTUAL STANDARD AS TO WHEN THINGS ARE TRIGGERED THROUGH THE TRAFFIC ANALYSIS. RIGHT. SO I'M JUST CURIOUS TO WILL THAT PIECE HAPPEN AS WE MOVE FORWARD WITH OUR ANALYSIS OF THE ALAMO? YES, SIR. AND THE REASON THE RECOMMENDATION FROM JUNE TO JULY IS IT WAS BASED ON OUR TRAFFIC ENGINEERS RECOMMENDATION TO MEET THAT 45TH BUSIEST DAY AND THAT HAD SHIFTED THAT THAT RANGE HAD SHIFTED.

AND SO WAS MORE TYPICAL OF A WEEKDAY IN JULY. AND SO THAT'S THAT'S WHY THE AND YES WE WILL YES YEAH IN ANSWER THE OTHER QUESTION IS YES SIR PERFECT.

I'M MORE CONCERNED ABOUT US BEING SATISFIED WITH A D RATING VERSUS A C RATING.

SO WE'LL FURTHER DISCUSS LATER THE CHANGE WHEN AND HOW PLANNINGS ARE REQUIRED ON SINGLE LOTS. I KNOW THAT THERE'S BEEN SOME DISCUSSION ABOUT THE NEWLY ADOPTED FAMILY SUBDIVISIONS FAMILY COMPOUNDS THAT THERE WAS SOME BIT OF A BURDEN BECAUSE OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR PLANNING. IS THAT GOING TO BE ADDRESSED LATER AS. YES, SIR, IT WILL BE ADDRESSED LATER.

OKAY. AND THE LAST ONE THE ADDITION OF THE OWNER'S CONSENT FOR MINOR SUBDIVISIONS AND THIS IS SOMEWHAT RELATED IF ONE WAS TO BE GOING THROUGH THE PROCESS OF CLEARING IS PROPERTY WHERE THE OWNER IS DEAD HOW WE COVER THAT CONSENT PIECE.

GREAT GREAT QUESTION. WE'VE WE'VE SO IT HAS TO BE SOMEBODY THAT'S NAMED BY THE OWNER OF RECORD OR THROUGH A A DOCUMENT THAT PROVIDES THAT LINEAGE TO THAT OWNER RECORD.

[03:50:04]

OKAY. THANK YOU. ALL RIGHT.

ANY COMMENTS FROM COUNSEL? NO COMMENTS FROM THE PUBLIC. ANYBODY? MR. SIMPSON, THE QUESTION AS TO WHEN THIS BECOMES EFFECTIVE AND IS YOU KNOW, WE HAVE A CLIENT WHO'S BEEN APPLYING ACTIVELY FOR I THINK OVER FOUR MONTHS AND THIS IS BEEN HAS BEEN SORT OF HELD UP. WE FINALLY WE FINALLY GOT SOMETHING APPROVED LAST WEEK WHICH IS WHAT SHOULD HAVE HAPPENED. SO WHAT'S THE EFFECT OF THIS ON EXISTING PROPERTY, THIS CHANGE ? JUST GIVE ME 1/2.

I GUESS THE THE EFFECTIVE DATE OF THE I MEAN THE CURRENT IS GOING TO HANDLE THE EFFECTIVE DATE OF MAY NINE. BUT I'LL JUMP IN I THINK SHAWN COMMITTED DEVELOPMENT DIRECTOR CAN ANSWER EFFECTIVE DATE BUT I WOULD LIKE TO HEAR FROM CURTIS ON THE TRUE EFFECTIVE DATE RIGHT OF SO IF TODAY IS FIRST READING AND NEXT AS SECOND AND FINAL READING IT'S TYPICALLY EFFECTIVE AS AS IT'S AS IT'S ADOPTED, RIGHT? SO THE LANGUAGE SAYS IT'S EFFECTIVE UPON ADOPTION WHEN THERE IS AN ISSUE OF A PENDING ORDINANCE SO THAT CAN BE IS SITUATION THIS THE PENDING ORDINANCE DOCTRINE PROVIDES THAT ONCE THE PROCESS HAS BEEN STARTED THE PUBLIC HEARING WAS HELD THAT THE ORDINANCE IS IN EFFECT AS OF THAT TIME.

SO I CERTAINLY I WOULD SUGGEST THAT THAT IS MINIMALLY WHAT WE SHOULD BE WORKING WITHIN THIS ORDINANCE ANYTHING THAT WAS WOULD BE AGAINST THIS ORDINANCE FROM THAT TIME FORWARD WOULD BE COMPLETELY REPUGNANT TO USE THE DOCTRINE WORDS TO THE INTENT OF THE BODY TO CREATE SOMETHING DIFFERENT THAN WHAT WAS BEFORE. AND SO THE PENDING ORDINANCE SHOULD BE APPLIED AT THE VERY EARLIEST OPPORTUNITY I WOULD BELIEVE THAT WOULD BE WHEN IT CAME OUT A PLANNING COMMISSION SOMEONE WANTS TO CORRECT ME ON THAT. OKAY.

I WOULD BE A LEGAL WELL I UNDERSTAND THAT YOU'RE LOOKING FOR LEGAL OPINION.

NO ONE WAS JUMPING IN AND I AM GOING TO SUGGEST AS A COUNCIL MEMBER WHICH IS MY TO SUGGEST THAT WE HAVE A PENDING ORDINANCE DOCTRINE IN PLACE AS OF THE APPROPRIATE MOMENT.

THANK YOU. OFTEN TIMES WE THINK THESE THINGS ARE STRATEGICALLY LASER FOCUSED ON A PARTICULAR SITUATION OR APPLICATION AND TURNS OUT IT AFFECTS A LOT MORE THAN WE THOUGHT SO I WOULD DEFINITELY THINK ABOUT THE LAW OF UNINTENDED CONSEQUENCES THIS THIS SUMMARY I'M CONFUSED SAYS PROPERTY OWNERS WITHIN SUBDIVISION SHOULD HAVE THE HAVE TO CONSENT TO CHANGES MADE TO A PREVIOUSLY PLATTED SUBDIVISION BUT THAT'S NOT WHAT'S BEING PROPOSED RIGHT? WE'RE NOT GETTING ALL THE PROPERTY OWNERS CONSENT THAT'S NOT IN THE LANGUAGE OF THE CHANGE THAT IS BEING CONSIDERED CORRECT BECAUSE I DON'T SEE IT LOOKS DIFFERENT THAN IT IS. YEAH THE CONSENT OF AN APPLICANT IS THE FIRST CHANGE REQUIRING THE WRITTEN CONSENT CERTIFICATE AND THAT'S THAT OF THE APPLICANT WHO IS ALSO OWNER. YEAH THE CONSENT OF THE OWNERS EXISTS WHEN THERE'S CHANGE TO A COMMONLY OPENED OR COMMONLY OWNED THE CHANGE WHEN YOU WELL IT MAY RESULT IN DENSITY OR THE NUMBER OF LOTS AND THAT'S DIFFERENT THAT'S A REQUIREMENT IT GOES FOR PLANNING COMMISSION SO THERE IS COMMON OWNERSHIP IN A LOT OF THESE SUBDIVISIONS OF ROADWAYS AND PATHWAYS AND COMMON AREA AND. SO YEAH YOU NEED TO GET THERE NEEDS TO BE CONSENT OF THE

[03:55:02]

I'LL BE GLAD TO GIVE YOU THEIR EMAIL ADDRESSES AND THEIR PHONE NUMBERS.

WE ARE UNITED IN THIS. THIS CANNOT STAND. YOU CANNOT LET THEM BUILD FOUR OR FIVE MORE SEVEN OR TEN BEDROOM HOUSES. FIRST OF ALL, THE LAND CAN'T HANDLE IT. THERE'S THIS IS THE ONLY CANOPY LEFT IN OUR NEIGHBORHOOD.

THESE LOTS THAT HE OWNS NOW THE CANOPY WILL BE GONE, WILL BE A DOWNTOWN AREA WITH BRICKS WITH BROWNSTONES FOR FOUR STORIES OVER PARKING 7 TO 10 BEDROOMS AND DOZENS AND DOZENS MORE CARS. THERE'S NO ROOM FOR ADEQUATE PARKING.

WE DON'T HAVE THE INFRASTRUCTURE. PEOPLE DO NOT HAVE ADEQUATE WATER PRESSURE. NOW SEWAGE CAN'T HANDLE IT. WE HAVE JUST CULVERTS.

WE HAVE DITCHES IN OUR OKAY AND THE ROADWAY THAT COMES INTO OUR SANDY BEACH TRAIL ONE WAY IN ONE WAY OUT IS A 35 FOOT RIGHT OF WAY. IT'S OWNED BY SURF WATCH AND THEY GRANT US THIS RIGHT OF WAY ACROSS THEIR THEY GRANTED THIS DEVELOPER A EASEMENT TO THE BEACH ACROSS THEIR PROPERTY WITH THE UNDERSTANDING THAT HE WOULD BUILD A BOARDWALK AND GET HIS PEOPLE OFF OF THEIR PUBLIC BOARDWALK. THIS HASN'T HAPPENED.

THEY DON'T SPEND MONEY. THEY SEE LITTLE BLOOD THE LIFEBLOOD OF THE COMMUNITY.

IT CAN'T KEEP GOING. ALL THESE NEW PEOPLE WILL HAVE TO WALK DOWN SANDY BEACH TRAIL AND GO DOWN THE SURF WATCH BOARDWALK WALK BECAUSE THEY HAVEN'T EVEN STARTED BUILDING THAT BOARDWALK. OBVIOUSLY IT CAN'T BE USED THIS YEAR.

THE LAST TIME Y'ALL LET THEM DO THIS THEY PARKED A TRAILER IN THE STREET FOR OVER A YEAR BUILDING THOSE FIRST THREE HOUSES. I BEGGED, BEGGED AND BEGGED THE TOWN TO GET THAT THING OFF THE STREET IN THE CURVE OF BRADLEY CIRCLE.

THEY WOULDN'T DO IT. THE TOWN HAS WALKED US. WE'RE A DOORMAT.

WE ARE WORN OUT. WE ARE THREADBARE AND I WOULD APPRECIATE ANYTHING YOU CAN DO FOR US RATHER THAN TO MAXIMIZE SOMEBODY ELSE'S PROFITS. THANK YOU.

DO YOU HAVE ANY OTHER COMMENTS COMMENTS FROM THE PUBLIC AND GOOD TO SEE EVERYONE KIND OF JUST KIND OF TOUCH A LITTLE BIT ON THE I GUESS WHAT EVERYBODY IS TALKING ABOUT NOW THE PLANET SUBDIVISION AMENDED ORDINANCE STANDARDS FOR DEVIATION FROM PREVIOUSLY PLATTED SUBDIVISION NOW TRUST ME I UNDERSTAND INTENT UNDERSTANDING THE DESIRE TO ATTEND INTENT AROUND THIS PARTICULAR ORDINANCE AMENDMENT ONE WOULD HAVE TO QUESTION IS

[04:00:01]

EVERY PARCEL HAS BEEN SUBDIVIDED DID EITHER BY THE COUNTY PRIOR TO THE TOWN'S INCORPORATION OR THROUGH THE TOWN THEMSELVES. WE HAVE TO ASK OURSELVES CAN THIS VAGUE EVENTUALLY CAUSE UNNECESSARY LAND DISPUTES ESPECIALLY WITH THE ADDITION OF THE PROPERTY CONSENT WITHIN THE QUOTE SUB LANGUAGE TAKING INTO ACCOUNT THAT EVERY PROPERTY CAN BE CONSIDERED A PLAT IS SUBDIVISION WHAT ARE THE BOUNDARY LIMITS OF THE QUOTE UNQUOTE PLAT IS SUBDIVISION WHOSE CONSENT IS BEING REQUIRED IF A PROPERTY OWNER LIVES NEXT TO A PD WELL THEIR CONSENT BE REQUIRED. HOW DOES AMENDMENT AFFECT THE ENACTED FAMILY SUBDIVISION ORDINANCE IN SOME CASES IT HAS TAKEN GULLAH FAMILIES YEARS YEARS TO FINALLY GET THEIR PROPERTY SUBDIVIDED AMONG THEMSELVES.

WHAT IMPACT OR BURDENS WILL THIS AMENDMENT CAUSE FOR THOSE FOR THE FAMILIES WHO AFTER YEARS OF BUREAUCRACY AND DISPUTES AND ENDURE WHEN THEY WANT TO FURTHER SUBDIVIDE THEIR PROPERTY WITHOUT THE PROPERTY OWNERS CONSENT WHO MAY VERY WELL BE A FAMILY MEMBER WHO AFTER YEARS OF LEGAL EXPENSES WERE NOT CONSENT TO THE PROPOSED SUBDIVISION WHAT HAPPENS THEN? THESE ARE SOME EXAMPLES OF THE POTENTIAL ISSUES WHICH ARISE FROM THE OPEN ENDED WORDING OF THIS PARTICULAR AMENDMENT. I WOULD STRONGLY RECOMMEND A REVISIT OF THIS AMENDMENT. I BELIEVE THAT THE INTENDED GOAL CAN AND SHOULD BE BETTER WORDED SO THAT WOULD NOT OPEN UP THIS CASE AND WHY EVERYONE IS QUOTE UNQUOTE UP.

THANK YOU. THANK YOU. THANK YOU.

AND ANY OTHER PUBLIC COMMENTS SAYING NON I'LL BRING IT BACK TO US TO THE DAIS AND COMMENTS FROM COUNCIL AND MR. MILLER I HAVE A COMMENT THE QUESTION ABOUT THE EFFECTIVE DATE OF THE PROPOSED REVISION IS GENERALLY NO RESOLUTION SHOW SHARES THAT THE EFFECTIVE DATE SHALL BE THAT THE ORDER SHALL BE EFFECTIVE UPON ADOPTION BY TOWN COUNCIL WHICH MEANS THAT THE READING THIS IS OUT WITHOUT REGARD TO THE ORDINANCE DOCTRINE.

WELL I THINK IT'S VERY PLAIN WHAT THE INTENT OF THIS IS. THANK YOU.

THANK YOU. ANY OTHER COMMENTS SEEING ON CRYSTAL YOU CALL THE RULE? YES, SIR. BEFORE YOU BEFORE YOU DO I JUST WANT TO I'M NOT SURE I COMPLETELY WHAT GLEN WAS SAYING. I UNDERSTAND THAT IT SAYS HERE THAT THE ADOPTION IS ON SECOND READING BUT I ALSO KNOW CLEARLY THAT DEPENDING ON ORDNANCE DOCTRINE SHOULD BE PLAYING A PART IN ANY OF THESE ORDINANCES THAT WERE PASSING BECAUSE THE WAY IT WAS DEVELOPED AND INTENDED TO BE SO THAT WHEN A COMMUNITY WAS MOVING FORWARD TO CREATE RULES AND REGULATIONS TO IMPROVE TO IMPROVE THAT WOULD THAT NOTHING WOULD HAPPEN THAT WOULD BE REPUGNANT TO THOSE DESIRES IN THAT AT THOSE ACTIONS TO DO SO AND SO I CERTAINLY AM GOING TO EXPECT THAT WE ARE UNDER A PENDING ORDINANCE DOCTRINE ALREADY AND THAT THIS JUST THE NEXT STEP IN THE PROCESS OF GETTING THE AND OTHER ORDINANCES PASSED THROUGH TO DO WHAT HAVE TOLD THIS COMMUNITY IS OUR NUMBER ONE PRIORITY TO STOP THE OVERDEVELOPMENT AND TO CREATE BETTER COMMUNITIES FOR THE RESIDENTS OF HILTON HEAD ISLAND . THANK YOU. ANY OTHER COMMENTS?

[04:05:01]

YES SIR, MR. BROWN, SUPPORT THIS VERIZON. YES, MR. AMES.

YES, MISS BECKER? YES. UNDER A PENDING ORDINANCE.

STOCKTON I MEAN I CAN'T VOTE YES FOR SOMETHING THAT SOMEONE IS ARGUING IN ARGUING AGAINST THE DATE THAT'S IN THE ORDINANCE. I MADE A COMMENT.

THERE WAS NO FOLLOW UP. I MEAN THAT IS THAT IS WHERE WE ARE WHETHER WE LIKE PENDING ORDINANCE DOCTRINE A LANGUAGE OR NOT THAT IS A FACT WE HAVE ESTABLISHED WE NEED TO ESTABLISH TO MAKE SURE THAT WHAT ARE DOING HAS SOME TEETH IN IT SO THAT WE CAN CREATE THE TYPE OF COMMUNITY THAT WE ARE TELLING PEOPLE AND SPENDING $7.6 MILLION AS OUT THE GATE TO DO IF WE ARE SERIOUS THEN LET'S DO IT THE RIGHT WAY AND. OBVIOUSLY THAT HAS ALREADY BEEN ESTABLISHED BY LAWS AND RULES. YES, I UNDERSTAND YOU DON'T WANT TO HEAR ANY MORE BUT I ALSO HEARD SILENCE WHEN I WAS TALKING TO WE GOT A MOTION AND A SECOND ON THE TABLE AND YOU WANT MY VOTE AND THE THERE WAS SILENCE AFTER IN NO RESPONSE YOU KNOW WHAT ARE WE VOTING ON WHAT IS THE. THE GENTLEMAN AND THE ORDINANCE I UNDERSTAND AND I AM AND THEN I MEANT I UNDERSTAND THAT WE WERE VOTING ON THE ORDINANCE. I ALSO MADE COMMENT PRIOR TO YOU CALLING THE VOTE THAT WE WERE UNDER A PENDING ORDINANCE STOCKTON THAT IS AND HAS BEEN THE CASE AND YOU THE CALL PLEASE MISS BECKER WHAT IS THE DATE THAT I'M VOTING ON I DON'T KNOW WHAT YOUR I DON'T KNOW I'M NOT SURE WHAT'S HAPPENING HERE BUT THE AMOUNT ME AND DAVID MOTION DOES NOT INCLUDE ANY VERBIAGE REGARDING THE PENDING ORDINANCE WE VOTING ON THIS AS A FIRST READING AND WE'LL COME TOGETHER AT THE NEXT MEETING FOR A SECOND READING DURING THAT PERIOD OF TIME COUNCIL WILL HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO DETERMINE WHETHER OR NOT IT WANTS TO ADOPT. YOU'RE SUGGESTING SO THE PENDING ORDINANCE DOCTRINE DOES NOT US TO ADOPT IT IT EXISTS. IT IS WHAT IT IS. WE HAVE SEVERAL LAWYERS HERE NOW I DON'T KNOW WHY NOT GETTING ANY ASSISTANCE WITH THIS AND WE ARE STANDING UP FOR OUR RESIDENTS, ARE WE NOT? WE'RE VOTING ON THIS ORDINANCE .

BECKER YES, I REALIZE THAT AND THE QUESTION HAS BEEN ASKED AND I'M ASKING FOR THE YES OR NO AND I'VE ASKED A QUESTION AND I DON'T KNOW WHY IT IS I'M BEING BACKED INTO A CORNER.

THE GENTLEMAN ASKED THE QUESTION I'M ASKING THE QUESTION I'M A I'M MAKING A STATEMENT I AM MAKING A STATEMENT THAT WE ARE THE PENDING ORDINANCE DOCTRINE REQUIRES ESTABLISHING IS DOESN'T REQUIRE ESTABLISHES CURRENTLY UNDER THOSE RULES BECAUSE OF THE SEQUENCE OF HEARINGS AND THE DATES PRIOR TO THIS MEETING AND THIS VOTE THAT WOULD BE EITHER A SEPARATE MOTION OR A MOTION AMEND WHAT'S ALREADY ON THE TABLE.

AND SO AFTER MY INITIAL COMMENT THERE WAS A QUICK CALL TO THE VOTE SO AND I REALIZE BY ROBERT'S ORDERS GOING TO BE OUT OF LINE IF I ASK TO AMEND THE VOTE NOW I HAD ASKED FOR PUBLIC COMMENT BEFOREHAND AND THERE WAS NO MOTION THAT WAS OFFERED AT THAT POINT IN TIME.

BLESS YOU. SO I GUESS I DIDN'T MAKE IT IN THE FORM OF A MOTION.

I DID MAKE A CLEAR COMMENT WITH REGARD TO THE PENDING ORDINANCE DOCTRINE AND I DON'T WHO WHO WHO DOESN'T WANT TO MAKE YOU MAD IN THIS ROOM RIGHT NOW BUT ? I KNOW THAT RIGHT HERE WE'VE GOT A BUNCH OF RESIDENTS WHO ARE VERY CONCERNED ABOUT MAKING SURE WE'RE DOING THE RIGHT THING AND WITH THE OPPORTUNITY TO DO THAT.

AND SO THE ARGUMENT FOR THEM IS GOING TO BE THAT IF IN FACT AN ORDINANCE DOCTRINE HAS ALREADY BEEN FULFILLED IN TERMS OF THE STEPS THAT WE'VE TAKEN THEN IT IS IN FACT IN EFFECT WHEN THAT HAPPENS AND NOT BY NECESSARILY VOTING ON THIS ORDINANCE OR PROVIDING A NEW MOTION TO DO SO . SO I'M GOING TO VOTE YES AND I WILL SUGGEST ANYONE WHO FINDS THAT ANYTHING HAPPENS REPUGNANT TO WHAT WE'RE VOTING ON AFTER THIS MEETING SHOULD CERTAINLY

[04:10:08]

MOTION CARRY SIR TO HAVE A MOTION TO ADJOURN NO SIR. MAY I ASK IT JUST CONTINUE THAT CONVERSATION. IT WAS SUGGESTED THAT WE WOULD NEED A MOTION.

WELL, THEY DON'T BELIEVE IT AT ALL. IT'S NECESSARY.

I'M ASKING TO PUT FORTH A MOTION THAT WOULD STATE CLEARLY SO THERE IS NO FURTHER ARGUING THAT WE ARE CURRENTLY UNDER A PENDING ORDINANCE DOCTRINE WITH REGARD TO THE AMENDMENT WE JUST APPROVED MOTION THAT SAYS I THINK IT IS YES SIR. I THINK IT'S WHAT I SAID TO BEGIN WITH FRANKLY THERE'S A COUPLE OF THINGS HERE, MR. MAYOR, PROCEDURE PURSUANT TO ROBERT'S RULES I BELIEVE IT IS, YES. DO A BETTER JOB SPEAKING IT OVER HERE UNDER THE SOUTH CAROLINA FREEDOM OF ACT WE CAN ONLY TAKE UP AN OFF AGENDA ITEM WHICH. THIS WOULD BE AN OFF AGENDA ITEM WITH THE TWO THIRDS VOTE OF COUNCIL AND A FINDING THAT THERE'S EXIGENT CIRCUMSTANCES THAT WE HAVE TO ACT AT THIS POINT FOR PURPOSES OF TRYING TO MOVE THIS THIS CONVERSATION FORWARD I WOULD STATE THAT THE PENDING ORDINANCE DOCTRINE OF ANY FORM CANNOT BECOME EFFECTIVE AN ORDINANCE IS ULTIMATELY NOT ADOPTED AND AT THIS POINT WE HAVE NOT HAD SECOND READING AND SO THE TIMING OF IT IS SOMEWHAT LESS MATERIAL THAT WE HAVE TO ADOPT AN ORDINANCE FIRST AND THEN YOU CAN GO BACK PROCEDURALLY AND IDENTIFY WHEN IT BECAME EFFECTIVE IF THAT MAKES SENSE IT DOES MAKE SENSE AND I APPRECIATE THE ANSWER TOOK A LONG TO GET SOMEONE TO CHIME IN AND I'M NOT BEING SNARKY I AM REPRESENTING THE RESIDENTS OF THIS ISLAND AND BECAUSE I AM REPRESENTING THEM I THINK IT'S IMPORTANT THAT WE SPEAK UP AND IN FACT I DON'T KNOW THE THE FACT THAT A PENDING ORDINANCE DOCTRINE CAN'T BE IN EFFECT UNTIL YOU HAVE A SECOND VOTE ON IT VERY WELL MAY BE TRUE IN THAT IT COULD FALL APART HOWEVER THE FACT OF BEING ABLE TO PRESERVE THE TIME FROM WHEN FIRST APPLICABLE TO THAT SECOND VOTE AS A SAFETY OR SAFETY ZONE IS IMPERATIVE IN THIS AND EVERYTHING THAT WE DO IN TERMS OF ADOPTING NEW ORDINANCES IN THIS TOWN. SO YES BUT THERE'S STILL A SAFETY ZONE AND I WOULD CONTINUE TO REQUEST THAT WE MOVE FORWARD IN MAKING SURE THERE'S NO QUESTIONS FOR THE FUTURE ON ISSUE AND SO PRIMARY MOTION THAT IF IT HAS A SECOND HAS TO BE VOTED UPON CLOSE FLOOR DEBATE FROM FROM A ROBERT'S RULES WATER STANDPOINT I HOPE EVERYONE WATCHING IS WATCHING IS NOTICING WHAT IS JUST HAPPENING SO IS A REAL QUICK TO MOVE THESE MOTIONS FORWARD WITHOUT ALL OF THE REQUIRED AND NECESSARY CONVERSATION AND DEBATE AND VOTE TO TRULY PROTECT THIS TOWN FROM THE OVERDEVELOPMENT AND PRESERVE THIS ISLAND FOR THE FUTURE. SO WOULD YOU LIKE TO WITHDRAW MOTION TO TO ADJOURN PLEASE WAS WAS THERE A SECOND I DID NOT HEAR IF THERE WAS ONE I DO NOT KNOW I DID NOT HEAR A SECOND CONCERN AND I'LL WITHDRAW IT. THANK YOU. ALL RIGHT.

BUT I THINK THERE'S A THERE IS THERE IS A DEFINITION THAT WE ARE LACKING ON CLARITY AS TO THE PENDING ORDINANCE WHEN IT TAKES EFFECT. I UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU'RE SAYING

[04:15:04]

NO, SIR. I WANT IN THERE'S NOT A LACK OF CLARITY AND I BELIEVE WE'VE THROUGH SEVERAL MEETINGS HAVING THIS DISCUSSION AND BELIEVE THERE HAVE BEEN SEVERAL OPINIONS THAT HAVE BEEN BROUGHT FORWARD AND THE PENDING ORDINANCE STOCKTON SPEAKS FOR ITSELF IN TERMS OF THE STEPS, THE MEETINGS, THE PUBLIC AND THE INTENT OF COUNCIL TO MAKE A CHANGE IN THE LAND MANAGEMENT ORDINANCE OR CODE IN A TOWN. SO IT'S NOT MY AT ALL IT'S THE NECESSARY STEPS THAT ARE SPELLED OUT CLEARLY IN THE DOCTRINE POINT OF ORDER I'M TRYING TO GET CAUGHT UP HERE SO WE DON'T HAVE A SECOND TO YOUR MOTION TO ADJOURN LET'S GO AHEAD. COUNCILWOMAN BACA HAS MADE A MOTION TO HAVE FURTHER DISCUSSION THIS TOPIC, CORRECT? THAT WOULD BE CORRECT, YES. SO WE ARE IN NEED OF A SECOND OVER A MOTION AT THIS POINT CORRECT. MY MY MY MY OKAY.

YES THAT IS CORRECT. IS THERE ANY SECOND GOING BACK TO MRS. REQUEST THE MOTION ANYONE WHO IS NOT INTERESTED IN VOTING FOR A SECOND ON THIS MOTION IS NOT DOING WHAT THEY'VE PROMISED THE COMMUNITY HAVE WE'RE GOING TO DO THROUGH THEIR CAMPAIGN OR THROUGH THEIR CONVERSATION HERE TODAY EVERY TIME SAYS RESIDENTS FIRST EVERY TIME SOMEONE SAYS AGAINST OVERDEVELOPMENT, EVERY TIME SOMEONE SAYS THAT THERE FOR THE ENVIRONMENT BY NOT SECONDING MY MOTION WHICH IS A FORMALITY BECAUSE WE ALREADY ESTABLISHED THE DOCTRINE ITSELF WHERE WE ARE THEN YOU HAVE BROKEN YOUR COMMITMENT TO THIS COMMUNITY AND I DO NOT AND ANYONE WHO KNOWS ME KNOWS THAT I DO NOT AFTER FOUR PLUS YEARS NOW ON COUNCIL EVER CALL ANYONE BUT WE ARE EITHER STANDING UP TO DO THE RIGHT THING NOW FOR THIS COMMUNITY WE SPENT $7.6 MILLION AS A START FOR ONE COMMUNITY WHEN WE HAVE BEEN WORKING ON THESE ORDINANCES ONE IN PARTICULAR FOR PROBABLY NEAR A YEAR I WILL CORRECT YOU AND THAT WAS FOR ISLAND NOT JUST FOR ONE COMMUNITY. WELL, NOT JUST FOR ONE COMMUNITY BUT WITHIN ONE COMMUNITY EXCUSE ME FOR MISSING THAT STATEMENT AND I'M GOING TO DISAGREE WITH YOU THAT WE'RE NOT HERE TO DO THE RIGHT THINGS FOR THE PUBLIC. WELL, THERE ARE AVENUES THAT TO BE TAKEN TO MEET THE REQUIREMENTS TO DO SUCH. AND I BELIEVE IN THAT.

I'M NOT SURE HOW WE ARE HERE RIGHT NOW MAYOR HAVING THIS CONVERSATION MOTION TO ADJOURN
