THE AGENDA HAS PRESENTED THAT WE ADOPTED TO HAS PRESENTED AGAINST ALSO FAVORITE LOSING SIGNIFY BY THE RIGHT NAME SO MOVE 70I HAVE A REQUEST OKAY I AM INTERESTED AND I BELIEVE OTHER MEMBERS OF COUNCIL ARE INTERESTED IN RECONSIDERING THE RESOLUTION FOR THE PARKING FEES SCHEDULED THAT WE ADOPTED LAST MONTH MAY MOVE TO AN ITEM ADDED TO THE NEXT TOWN COUNCIL AGENDA WITH THE INTENT OF DISCUSSING THE TOWN WILL FORM A TEAM OF TOWN AND POPE AVENUE BUSINESS REPRESENTATIVES TO RECOMMEND TO COUNCIL IN AN AREA PARKING PLAN BY A DATE CERTAIN THIS IS A FIRST SECOND ANY DISCUSSION AMONG COUNCIL THE FACT YES I'M CURIOUS IS THIS THE ENTIRE PARKING PLAN THAT WE'VE PUT INTO THE RESOLUTION BECAUSE THE COLLECTING AREA WAS NOT INCLUDED AS PART OF THE PARKING PLAN CURRENTLY AT THE INTENT OF MY MOTION IS TO FOCUS ONLY ON THE POPE AVENUE AREA HAVE THAT THE THE PURPOSE OF THE DISCUSSION SO YOU SO WE'RE GOING BACK AND REHASHING WE'RE GOING TO MOVE ON WITH THIS SECOND READING YES THE RESOLUTION IS OH YEAH THE ORDINANCE NOT AFFECTED BY WHAT I'M SAYING.

YES. NO I DON'T MEAN JUST ORDINANCE THE RESOLUTION AS IT STANDS THAT THE RESOLUTION CONTINUE TO STAND IT WOULD COME BACK FOR A AN AMENDMENT A RECOMMENDED AMENDMENT FROM COUNCIL NOT BUT THE THE POLICY THE RESOLUTION STAY IN PLACE AND IT WOULD BE WHAT I REGARD THE WORK HE WANTS TO LOOK AT THE COUNCIL AGREES UPON WHICH IS RELATED TO A TASK FORCE FROM THE TOWN AND THE BUSINESS COMMUNITY TO ADDRESS PARKING FOR BUSINESSES.

I'LL COMMENT WITH MAYOR SIR ON STANDING THAT WITH THIS MOTION THEY WOULD COME BACK WITH RECOMMENDATION THAT WOULD BE UP TO COUNCIL TO ADOPT IT OR NOT AMEND OR NOT CORRECT.

THANK YOU KAREN. THANK YOU. I I'LL I'LL VOTE IN FAVOR OF THIS MOTION AND POINTED OUT THE MAYOR SEVERAL CLERICAL AND LEGAL QUESTIONS ABOUT THE RESOLUTION THAT WAS ADOPTED. I HAVE NOT YET RECEIVED TO THAT SO I THINK WE DEFINITELY NEED

[00:05:01]

TO AT LEAST CLEAN IT UP BUT ALSO SUPPORT THE IDEA OF PUTTING TOGETHER A TEAM OF BUSINESSES AND COMMUNITY RESIDENTS TO CONSIDER THIS MATTER FURTHER AND IS MY UNDERSTANDING WITH ADOPTION OF THIS MOTION IT WILL BE ON THE OCTOBER 15 AGENDA IF IT PASSES FOR THREE IT WOULD BE ON THE AGENDA. THAT'S GREAT.

THANK YOU SO SINCE CURTIS, I'VE GOT TO ASK THE QUESTION ON THIS .

WE'VE GOT A MOTION AND THE SECOND AND COUNCIL'S GOING TO TAKE A VOTE.

WE DID NOT HAVE IT ON THE AGENDA. DO I NEED TO OPEN IT UP FOR PUBLIC COMMENT? I THINK THAT'S AT YOUR DISCRETION THIS MOTION BECAUSE WHAT YOU'RE SAYING IS IS THAT AN ITEM WILL BE PLACED ON THE AGENDA AT WHICH TIME WHEN ACTUALLY BEFORE THE PUBLIC THE PUBLIC COULD COMMENT THAT TIME. OKAY.

ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU. SO WITH THAT SAID, THERE IS A FIRST AND A SECOND SPEAKER. SO I'M JUST LISTENING TO COUNCILWOMAN PRESS PERSON SO THE LEGAL QUESTIONS THAT YOU ASKED IS THERE IS IS THERE AN ANSWER TO THOSE THAT WE CAN GO I MEAN AS LONG AS I DON'T WANT THAT LEFT HANGING BECAUSE THERE'S TWO SEPARATE ISSUES RIGHT? YES, I WILL I WILL ANSWER THAT QUESTION AND ASK COLTRANE TO CHIME IN AS WELL. THERE WILL BE A RESPONSE BACK TO THE QUESTIONS FOR COUNSEL.

WE JUST HAVE NOT RECEIVED IT YET. SO MR. COLTRANE GETTING AFTER THAT? NO, NO, NO, I DO THERE. THANK YOU.

ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? COMMENTS I GUESS THERE'S TWO SEPARATE QUESTIONS IS DO WE WANT TO VOTE TO TAKE IT OFF AND PUT IT ON THE NOT TAKING ANYTHING OFF TODAY WE'LL PUT IT ON FOR THE NEXT IT'S BASED ON THE LEGAL QUESTIONS OR BASED ON HAVING TO DO AN ADDITIONAL REVIEW THERE. I WOULD SAY THAT THE LEGAL QUESTIONS RIGHT NOW ARE NOT OF OF THE MOTION THE MOTION IS IN REFERENCE TO BRINGING IT BACK ON THE 15TH OF OCTOBER TO DISCUSS ADDING ANOTHER COMMITTEE TO IT TO WORK BETWEEN THE TOWN AND THE BUSINESS COMMUNITY TO ADDRESS PAID PARKING OR PARKING. LET ME REPHRASE THAT PARKING FOR EMPLOYEES AND THE BUSINESSES HOW WOULD THAT COMMITTEE BE PAID TO GET THEM? I DO NOT HAVE THAT ANSWER AT THIS TIME OR TO TAKE A VOTE. WHEN THIS CAME TO ME AT 1230 TODAY SO I HAVEN'T HAD A FULL MOMENT TO ADDRESS AND THINK THROUGH IT COMPLETELY AND I HEAR YOU UNDERSTAND THAT IT'S HARD TO TAKE THEM ONE ON ONE. I DON'T KNOW WHAT THE DETAILS ARE. THANK YOU. THANK YOU SIR.

I THINK THE MOTION IS TO PUT IT ON THE AGENDA SO WE CAN DISCUSS IT.

THAT'S CORRECT. 15 AND SO THAT'S WHEN WE DON'T THE DISCUSSION.

OKAY THE OTHER COMMENT BEFORE SO WE HAVE A MOTION FROM MR. SECOND FROM MR. ALFORD ALL THOSE IN FAVOR OF MOVING THIS TO OCTOBER 15TH, PUTTING ON THE AGENDA FOR OCTOBER 15 PLEASE MOVE OVER RAISING YOUR RIGHT HAND THAT FOR THAT'S SUPPOSED TO SIGNIFY BY RAISING YOUR RIGHT HAND FOR MR. RELEVANCY YOUR VOTE IN FAVOR FOUR OKAY. ALL RIGHT SO 5 TO 2.

ALL RIGHT. BEFORE WE MOVE ON TO UNFINISHED BUSINESS, I JUST WANT TO TAKE A QUICK MOMENT AND THEN MAKE SOME FACE SOME GREAT THANK YOU'S. LAST WEEK WE WERE SPARED GREATLY AS A COMMUNITY WE SEE WHAT'S HAPPENED ALL AROUND NOT JUST IN NORTH CAROLINA, FLORIDA BUT BLUFFTON, BEAUFORT, PORT ROYAL, GEORGIA. FRIDAY AS WE'RE IN THE TOWN HALL TALKING ABOUT HOW WE'RE GOING TO ADDRESS CERTAIN THINGS WE'VE GOT THE FIRST RESPONDERS AND THOSE WERE FIRST RESPONDERS ARE FIRE RESCUE, EMS, STORM WATER, OUR CONTRACTORS.

THESE WERE ALL OF OUR FIRST RESPONDERS ON FRIDAY. THEY ALL HAD THEY.

THERE WAS DAMAGE TO SOME OF THOSE INDIVIDUALS. THEIR HOUSES WERE DAMAGED BUT YET THEY WERE HERE TAKING CARE OF OUR COMMUNITY AND THAT IS A THAT IS A SELFLESS ACT AND IT CANNOT GO UNRECOGNIZED. SO WE COULD JUST GIVE THEM A MOMENT OF THANKS FOR THAT BECAUSE THEY REALLY WERE HERE TO GET US BACK. YOU KNOW WE'RE NOT THERE YET.

WE TO HAVE SOME MORE PATIENTS BUT WE WILL GET THERE. BUT WE NEED TO KEEP THE OTHERS THOSE FAMILIES, OUR THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS AND HOW WE CAN HELP THEM.

[00:10:02]

SO I JUST WANT TO BRING THAT UP AND THEN IF I COULD INDULGE A MOMENT PERSONAL PRIVILEGE ABOUT THE STORM. I PROMISE IT WON'T TAKE LONG. A LOT OF YOU THAT I LIVED ASHEVILLE, NORTH CAROLINA FOR 31 YEARS I PRACTICED THERE. I WORKED IN THE DOWNTOWN AREA.

WE WALKED ALONG THE FRENCH ROLLED RIVER THERE MANY, MANY TIMES WE KAYAK THAT RIVER FROM TRANSYLVANIA WHERE IT STARTED ALMOST ALL THE WAY TO THE TENNESSEE BORDER NOT IN THE SAME DAY, ALMOST AT DIFFERENT TIMES. REMEMBER THAT RIVER WELL THE SWAN RIVER RUNS THE EAST WEST THE FRENCH BROAD RIVER FROM THE SOUTH TO THE NORTH.

IT'S ONE OF THOSE UNUSUAL RIVERS. WHEN I WAS ASSISTANT CITY ATTORNEY FOR THE CITY OF ACTUAL I WORKED WITH THE BUSINESS OWNERS IN THE BILTMORE VILLAGE AREA AND HISTORIC RESOURCES COMMISSION COMMISSION TO THE BOUNDARIES OF THE BILTMORE VILLAGE HISTORIC DISTRICT. I KNOW THAT AREA. IT'S INCREDIBLE THE PHOTOS SEEING. IT'S TRUE. IT'LL TAKE A LONG TO RECOVER.

RIGHT NOW THIS COMMUNITY IS REACHING OUT AND SENDING SUPPLIES TO THAT COMMUNITY AS IN WESTERN NORTH CAROLINA.

[5.a. Consideration of an Ordinance of the Town of Hilton Head Island, South Carolina Amending Title 12, Chapter 3, of the Municipal Code Entitled: Motor Vehicles and Traffic Control, Parking, to Revise Regulations Related to Paid Parking and Other Matters Related Thereto, and to Provide for Severability and an Effective Date, Second and Final Reading – Josh Gruber, Deputy Town Manager]

I WILL MOVE ON TO SOME UNFINISHED BUSINESS. WE HAVE THE SECOND AND FINAL READING OF THE ORDINANCE AMENDING TITLE 12 CHAPTER THREE OF THE MUNICIPAL CODE ENTITLED MOTOR VEHICLES AND TRAFFIC CONTROL PARKING TWO REVISED REGULATIONS RELATED TO PAID PARKING THIS WAS APPROVED BY TOWN COUNCIL ON SEPTEMBER 17TH 7 TO 0.

MR. GROOVER YES, SIR. THANK YOU, MAYOR. MEMBERS OF COUNCIL THE MATERIALS BEFORE YOU THIS EVENING ARE ESSENTIALLY THE SAME SUBSTANCE AS IT WAS BEFORE COUNCIL AT YOUR LAST MEETING IN THERE HAVE BEEN NO PROPOSED REQUESTED AMENDMENTS OR ALTERATIONS AT THIS TIME AND AS THE MAYOR INDICATED THE ORDINANCE WAS APPROVED UNANIMOUSLY ON FIRST READING SO IF THERE ARE ANY QUESTIONS I'LL BE TO ADDRESS THOSE OTHERWISE THE MATTER THAT'S PENDING BEFORE YOU IS THE SAME THAT YOU PREVIOUSLY UPON.

SO WITH THAT SAID I'LL OPEN UP IF WE HAVEN'T SIGNED UP FOR PUBLIC COMMENT.

YEAH YES WE DO. WE'VE GOT FOUR PEOPLE KATIE HENDERSON KATIE HENDERSON.

DAN KRAMER, AMY FEE THANK YOU. GOOD AFTERNOON EVERYONE. MY NAME IS AMY AND I'M FROM FOREST BEACH. I WANT TO THANK YOU. I WANT THANK THE COUNCIL FOR GRANTING ADDITIONAL TIME TO INVESTIGATE, TO TALK TO, TO RESEARCH AND GATHER DATA FROM.

THE STAKEHOLDERS IN COLLIGNON BEACH AREA THE DECISION THAT GETS MADE IS GOING TO IMPACT A LOT OF PEOPLE NOT JUST IN THE COLLIGNON BEACH AREA BUT ALL ALONG THE CORRIDOR AND THEN SOME SO THANK YOU FOR GRANTING ADDITIONAL TIME TO GATHER THE DATA.

THANK YOU. THANK YOU. DEBORAH JURADO DEBORAH JURADO, A 50 YEAR RESIDENT OF HILTON HEAD ISLAND AND A NEIGHBOR IN FOREST BEACH.

SO JUST LIKE IN 2014 WHEN THE ALAMO WAS REWRITTEN AND THE CHANGES UNINTENDED CONSEQUENCES I THINK YOU NEED TO LOOK AT PARKING ORDINANCE IN THE SAME WAY IF COLONY IS THE ONLY AREA

[00:15:10]

THAT IS NOT CHARGED FOR PARKING THEN WE'RE GOING TO FUNNEL EVERYBODY TOWARDS COLONY WE ALREADY HAVE WAY TOO MUCH TRAFFIC THERE AND AS I UNDERSTAND IT THE TOWN HAS JUST BOUGHT TWO PARCELS ON POPE AVENUE THAT CONSIDERING TURNING INTO PARKING SO WE'RE FUNNELING EVERYBODY FREE OF CHARGE TO COLONY IF ANY OF YOU GO DOWN THAT AREA ON A DAILY BASIS IN SEASON YOU'LL KNOW WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT. I DO THAT EVERY DAY IF IT'S PAID PARKING THEN SOME OF THE PEOPLE DECIDE TO PARK IN OUR NEIGHBORHOODS AND SO THE UNINTENDED CONSEQUENCES ARE WHO WILL ENFORCE ILLEGAL, WHO WILL WRITE TICKETS, WHO WILL ENFORCE THE TICKETS? RIGHT NOW WE DON'T HAVE THAT CAPACITY AT THE TOWN.

PLEASE DON'T TURN HOPE AVENUE INTO PARKING CENTRAL. THAT'S WHAT IT'LL BE IF WE CHARGE PARKING. MY SUGGESTION WOULD BE THAT YOU INVESTIGATE WAYS TO MAKE IT FREE SOMEHOW FOR HILTON HEAD ISLAND RESIDENTS WHO DON'T LIVE IN THE AREA AND ALSO FOR EMPLOYEES OF THE BUSINESSES AND ON THEIR FREE FOR THEM TOO SO IT WOULD NOT IMPACT THE BUSINESSES THANK YOU THANK YOU THAT'S ALL OKAY THANK YOU. SO DO WE HAVE A MOTION AS MAYOR AND COUNCIL ADOPT THE ORDINANCE OF THE TOWN OF HILTON HEAD ISLAND SOUTH CAROLINA AMENDMENT TITLE 12 CHAPTER THREE OF THE MUNICIPAL CODE ENTITLED MOTOR VEHICLES AND TRAFFIC CONTROL PARKING TO REVISE REGULATIONS RELATED PAID PARKING AND OTHER MATTERS RELATED THERETO AND TO PROVIDE FOR ■THE SEVERABILITY AND EFFECTIVE DATE. THIS IS THE SECOND AND FINAL READING OF THE SECOND WAS DRAFTED IN DISCUSSION BY COUNCIL I HAVE A QUESTION SO ON THE DOCUMENT IN FRONT OF US IT INDICATES THAT THERE WAS A 5 TO 9 SEVEN OVER SO THERE'S TWO PORTIONS THERE SAYS IT'S MEANING ON SEPTEMBER 17TH THE TOWN COUNCIL UNANIMOUSLY APPROVED THE DRAFT ORDINANCE AND THEN AT THE SAME MEETING TOWN COUNCIL APPROVED THE CORRESPONDING RESOLUTION ON A VOTE OF 5 TO 2 AND THE RESOLUTION WAS 5 TO 2 ON THAT WAS JUST WANTED TO CODIFICATION BECAUSE YOU'RE READING IT AND SITTING SOMEWHERE ELSE NO WORRIES THANK. ANY OTHER DISCUSSION COMMENTS ALL THIS IN FAVOR OF POLICE IN

[6.a. Consideration of an Ordinance to Amend the Town of Hilton Head Island Budget for the Fiscal Year Ending June 30, 2025; to Provide for the Budgeted Appropriations of the Prior Year Budget Roll Forward and Certain Other Appropriations and Commitments and the Expenditures of Certain Funds; to Allocate the Sources of Revenue for the Said Funds; and to Provide for Severability and an Effective Date - First Reading - Adriana Burnett, Finance Director]

FAVOR OF RAISING A RIGHT IN SUM OF SEVEN ZERO. MOVING ON TO OTHER NEW BUSINESS WE WERE ORDERED TO AMEND THE TOWN COUNCIL IRELAND BUDGET FOR FISCAL YEAR JUNE 30TH 2025 PROVIDE FOR THE BUDGET APPROPRIATE TO THE PRIOR YEAR BUDGET ROLL FORWARD CERTAIN OTHER APPROPRIATIONS AND COMMITMENTS AND EXPENDITURES OF CERTAIN TO ALLOCATE THE RESOURCE OF REVENUE FROM SAID FUNDS AND PROVIDE SEVERABILITY AND AN EFFECTIVE DATE OR NOT THEY ARE. GOOD AFTERNOON TOWN COUNCIL TOWN MANAGER AND OUR CITIZEN MEMBERS THAT ARE US RIGHT NOW AND ARE HERE PRESENT THIS IS MY FIRST TOWN COUNCIL MEETING WELCOME. WELL THIS IS GREAT SO I'M DOING A LITTLE SOMETHING A LITTLE DIFFERENT THIS TIME YOU HAVE IN FRONT OF YOU YOU HAVE A MEMO AND YOU HAVE AN ORDINANCE AND WHAT I DECIDED DO IS THANKS TO MR. BROWN HE ASKED ME OR NOT DIRECTLY ASKED ME BUT HE MENTIONED THAT IT WOULD BE GREAT IF I CAN GIVE MORE DETAIL ON AND BETTER EXPLANATIONS ABOUT WHAT WE'RE DOING AS RELATES BUDGET AMENDMENTS. SO THIS IS THE FIRST READING OF OUR 2025 BUDGET AMENDMENT AND I WOULD LIKE TO GIVE YOU MORE DETAILED INFORMATION AND THIS IS A INTERRUPT WHENEVER YOU YOU HAVE A QUESTION. LET'S NOW WAIT UNTIL THE END.

I'LL BE GLAD TO ANY QUESTIONS YOU MAY HAVE. SO THE PURPOSE AGAIN OF OF THIS BUDGET AMENDMENT IS TO REVIEW IS FOR IS TO PRESENT TO THE TOWN COUNCIL THE BUDGET PROPOSAL FOR FISCAL YEAR 25. WE HAVE DIVIDED THIS IN THREE SECTIONS.

ONE OF THEM IS A GENERAL PLAN SECTION WHICH IS ABOUT 1.6 OR $1.6 MILLION THAT WE'RE PROPOSING TO AMEND THIS NUMBER TWO IS THE CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM FUND WHICH IS ABOUT $8.5 MILLION AND NUMBER THREE IS THE SUMMARY FUND WHICH IS $1.6 MILLION.

[00:20:07]

SO LET'S TALK ABOUT THE GENERAL FUND FIRST. THE THE FIRST ONE IS FACILITY MAINTENANCE. WE HAVE 118,950 THAT WE WANT TO CARRY FOR IS AN OPERATING EXPENSE AND THIS IS ON SPEND MONEY AND IT COMES FROM DIFFERENT SOURCES OF FUNDING SO ONE OF THE THINGS HAPPENED IN 2024 WE ACTUALLY SIGNED CONTRACTS TO DO A LOT OF DIFFERENT WORKS AROUND TOWN AND WE SIGNED THE CONTRACTS WORK WAS STARTED IN THOSE CONTRACTS AND IT WASN'T COMPLETED OR IS NOT GOING TO BE UNTIL 2025.

SO THIS WAS APPROVED IN 2024. AGAIN WE ARE ASKING FOR COUNCIL CARRY FORWARD AGAIN $18,000 AND 950 TO PAY FOR THE DIFFERENT THINGS THAT WE'RE DOING. SOME OF THEM ARE REPAIR BAY DOOR STATION NUMBER SIX. ANOTHER ONE IS REPLACE FIRE PANELS.

ANOTHER ONE IS IN RESTROOM FLOORS. THE ROWING CENTER AND JARVIS PARK ANOTHER ONE IS THE WASTE AND RECYCLING SERVICES ALSO SECURITY SYSTEM AND PART JANITORIAL SOME OF THESE THINGS ARE SOME OF THE SERVICES THAT WE HAVE HERE SOME OF THEM ARE TIMING, SOME OF THEM AGAIN THEY STARTED THE WORK IN 24 AND SOME OF THEM HAVE COMPLETED ALREADY AND WE'RE JUST WAITING FOR THE INVOICE FROM THE VENDOR. ANY QUESTIONS ON THIS ITEM HERE ? QUESTIONS WITH FAVOR. THANK YOU.

WHEN YOU SAY CARRY FORWARD I BELIEVE WHAT YOU MEAN IS THIS MONEY WAS APPROVED FOR THE CURRENT YEAR FISCAL YEAR BUDGET AND IT WILL BE MOVED FORWARD TO BE HANDLED IN THE NEXT YEAR'S FISCAL, IS THAT CORRECT? THAT IS CORRECT. SO THIS IS HOW SPEND MONEY THAT WE DID APPROVE IN 2024 AND WE DIDN'T SPEND THE MONEY. SO WE ARE ASKING TO ALLOW US TO MOVE THAT BUDGET MONEY THAT WAS APPROVED IN 24 TO 25 SO WE CAN PAY FOR THE SERVICES.

I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT WAS CLEAR TO THE PUBLIC. THANK YOU.

YES, YOU THE NEXT ITEM IS FROM THE COMMUNITY PLANNING TEAM. THIS IS ACTUALLY 403,596 AND IT'S THE SAME THING AGAIN IT'S IMPORTANT WE ARE THIS IS A SPENT FISCAL YEAR 24 REVENUE AND THIS IS MONEY THAT WAS APPROVED IN 2020 FOR THIS IS AN OPERATING EXPENSES AND IT COMES FROM DIFFERENT REVENUE SOURCES THESE ARE MULTI-YEAR CONTRACT OF THEM WERE ACTUALLY SIGNED BACK IN 2023 AND THEY'RE GOING TO BE THEY'RE GOING TO BE SOME OF THE CONTESTS WILL END IN 25 SOME OF THEM WILL END IN 26. BUT THESE ARE THE DIFFERENT PROGRAMS THAT OR THE DIFFERENT THAT WE ARE PAYING WITH THIS MONEY. ONE OF THEM IS THE LAND MANAGEMENT ORDINANCE AMENDMENT NUMBER TWO IS THE DISTRICT PLANNING PROJECT AND NUMBER THREE IS A LAND PRESERVATION AGAIN WE'RE ASKING YES SIR. I JUST WANT TO MAKE IT CLEAR THAT YOU'RE TALKING FISCAL YEAR 23, FISCAL YEAR 24 AND FISCAL 25.

THAT IS CORRECT. SO WHEN WE SIGNED THE CONTRACT. WE REALIZED THAT THIS CONTEXT WHERE A MULTI-YEAR MULTI MULTI YEARS SO SOME OF THEM IN 2023 WHEN WE SIGNED SOME OF THESE CONTRACTS AND THEY'RE GOING TO EXTEND FOR MULTIPLE YEARS SO THERE'S CHANCE THAT MOST LIKELY WE'LL PROBABLY SEE THIS AGAIN ESPECIALLY THOSE CONTRACTS THAT ARE NOW GOING TO BE COMPLETED IN 25. SO THEY WILL BE COMPLETED IN 26 AND SOME OF THEM ACTUALLY GO AS FAR AS 27. BUT WE'RE HOPING THAT THAT'S NOT THE CASE WE'RE HOPING THAT WE CAN COMPLETE THE WORK EVEN BEFORE THEN. ANY QUESTIONS ON THIS THE NEXT ONE IS AFFILIATED AGENCIES AND IS $1.1 MILLION AND AGAIN THIS IS OCCURRING FOR THIS UNSPENT FISCAL YEAR 24 REVENUE AND THIS ONE DEALS WITH TWO OF OUR AFFILIATED AGENCIES AND I THINK ALL OF YOU ARE FAMILIAR WITH WITH THIS TWO AGENCIES ONE OF THEM IS THE COASTAL COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION AND WE COMMITTED TO PROVIDE THEM WITH $600,000 AND THE OTHER ONE IS THE HILTON HEAD REGIONAL FOR HUMANITY WHICH IS $500,000.

THE SUM OF THOSE TWO IS 1.1. SO WE'RE ASKING TO CARRY FORWARD THOSE TWO AMOUNTS FOR FISCAL YEAR 25 SO WE CAN PAY THIS TO AGENCIES IF THEY ASK OF COURSE WHEN ASK FOR FOR THE MONEY ANY QUESTIONS. SO TO SUMMARIZE THE GENERAL FUND EFFECT THE BUDGET THAT YOU

[00:25:04]

APPROVED IS $60 MILLION 924 THREE HAD AN 81 BUDGET AMENDMENT.

SO TO SUMMARIZE AGAIN THIS FACILITY IS MINUS WHAT 18 COMMUNITY PLANNING FOR FOR ALL THREE AFFILIATED AGENCIES FOR 1.1 MILLION THE TOTAL BUDGET AMENDMENTS THAT WE ARE REQUESTING FOR THE GENERAL FUND IS 1622 546 OR 1,000,006 SO I WILL REVISE BUDGET IS GOING TO GO FROM 60.9 TO 62.5. ONE THING THAT I DO WANT TO MENTION I FEEL IS VERY IMPORTANT TO BE AWARE IS THAT FOR FISCAL YEAR 2014 OF FISCAL YEAR 24 WE ACTUALLY DID NOT SPEND $2.2 MILLION. SO THIS IS MONEY THAT IS GOING BACK TO OUR RESERVE.

SO I KNOW WE'RE ASKING FOR 1.6 BUT WE HAVE TO ALSO REALIZE THAT IN 24 THE UNSPENT BALANCE FOR THE GENERAL FUND $2.2 MILLION AND YES SIR WHEN TALK ABOUT GENERAL FUNDS ARE THE SOURCES OF THOSE FUNDS OF PROPERTY TAXES ARE THEY COME FROM OTHER PLACES THEY COME FROM DIFFERENT PLACES? IS THAT JUST PROPERTY TAXES A PORTION SOME PROPERTY TAXES OR PORTIONS OF POTENTIALLY FROM LOCAL TAX? SOME OF THEY MAY COME FROM FEES THAT WE HAVE. SO THEY COME FROM DIFFERENT SOURCES NOT PROPERTY TAXES.

ANY QUESTIONS ON THE GENERAL FUND AND THE REVISED BUDGET AMOUNT NUMBER TWO IS THE CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM FORM ON THIS ONE I WANTED TO GIVE YOU SOME BECAUSE THIS ONE DEALS WITH THE LOT PALM STATION AND FOR THOSE OF YOU THAT ARE NOT WE ACTUALLY WE ACTUALLY BUILD STATION BACK IN 1989 TO PROTECT AND ROLLS IN 2000 ACRE LOT ON BASE SO IT WAS NOT IT IS NOT NEW STATION BUILT IN 1989 HAS BEEN THERE FOR A WHILE SO WE STARTED ACTUALLY A COMPLETE OVERHAUL PROJECT IN 2021 WE ACTUALLY BUILT A NEW CONTROL BUILDING, NEW GENERATOR, NEW ELECTRONIC CONTROLS AND THEN WE THREE NEW PUMPS. THE LAST WAS INSTALLED ON SEPTEMBER FOUR, 2024. SO THERE'S BEEN A FEW WAYS AND THE PROJECT IS NOW COMPLETE.

WHEN WE STARTED WITH THIS PROJECT IT INCORPORATED DIFFERENT FISCAL YEARS BUT THE TOTAL BUDGET AMOUNT THAT WE AS WAS $2.9 MILLION BACK IN THOSE DAYS WE ACTUALLY SPENT A YEAR AS OF THE END OF FISCAL YEAR 24 WE ACTUALLY SPENT $1.7 MILLION. SO I'M ASKING TO FORWARD 327,316 TO FINISH PAYING THE CONTRACTOR THAT IN CHARGE OF THIS INSTALLATION AND THIS WHOLE OVERHAUL FOR THE LONG TERM PUMP IN QUESTIONS QUESTIONS.

00I LIKE THE ONE YEAH THIS ONE IS A LITTLE BUSY AND I DON'T WANT TO SPEND TOO MUCH TIME BECAUSE I ACTUALLY HAVE A SUMMARY PAGE. THIS ONE DEALS WITH OUR FIRE TRUCKS EQUIPMENT AND THIS IS ONE THAT THE REASON WHY I WANTED FOR YOU TO SEE ALL OF THIS INFORMATION IS BECAUSE WE ACTUALLY WITH OUR FISCAL YEAR 2022 THAT WAS THE FIRST TIME THAT WE ACTUALLY REQUESTED A NEW APPROVE A BUDGET AND BACKING IN 2022 THE GOAL WAS TO BUY TEN FIRE TRUCKS. SOME OF THEM WERE PUMP OR SOME OF THEIR WORK WITH AND THE BUDGET THAT WAS APPROVED BACK IN 2022 WAS ABOUT $6.2 MILLION AND THEN THAT SAME FOR THAT SAME FISCAL YEAR WE ACTUALLY GOT A BUDGET AMENDMENT AND WE ADDED AN ADDITIONAL 1.3.

SO AS YOU CAN SEE YEAR AFTER YEAR WE'RE BEING CARRIED THIS IS THIS AMOUNT AND THAT'S BECAUSE WE WERE EXPECTING OUR TRUCKS TO ARRIVE SOON AND THAT DIDN'T HAPPEN BECAUSE A LOT OF DIFFERENT REASONS ARE WITH THE THE MANUFACTURING COMPANIES SO WE GOT DELAYED AFTER DELAYED SO I AM HAPPY REPORT THAT I KNOW THE CHIEF BLANKENSHIP IS PROBABLY VERY HAPPY AS WELL AND HIS TEAM THAT WE ACTUALLY GOT OUR FIRST FROG IN JUNE OF 2024 SO LET GO TO THE SUMMARY PAGE.

THIS ONE ACTUALLY SHOWS IN 2025 THE BUDGET THAT YOU APPROVED WAS $2.4 MILLION AND YOU'RE

[00:30:02]

PROBABLY WONDERING WHY IS THAT JUST 2.4 WE WERE EXPECTING MORE.

WELL, THAT WHEN WE STARTED DOING OUR BUDGET FOR 2024 WE HAD NO IDEA WHEN THE TRUCKS WERE GOING TO ARRIVE. SO WE WERE VERY CONSERVATIVE ON THE ASK AND WE HAD 2.4 IN ADDITION TO THAT FISCAL YEAR 25 WE ACTUALLY ADDED TWO LADDER TRUCKS WHICH THE CAUSE WAS 4.5 AND THAT'S WHY YOU APPROVED FOR 2025 BUDGET. IN ADDITION TO THAT WE HAVE ALL THE FLEET VEHICLES, OUR FLEET EXPENSES WHICH YOU APPROVE ALL $366,000.

SO ADDING ALL OF THAT TOGETHER FOR FISCAL YEAR 25, THE APPROVED BUDGET THAT YOU APPROVED $7.3 MILLION WHY WE ASK YOU NOW IS CARRY FORWARD FOR $4 MILLION 453,034 YOU FOR US TO PAY THE REMAINING TRUCKS THAT WE I STILL DON'T HAVE ALL OF THEM BUT WE ARE EXPECTING THEM TO GET HERE WITHIN THE NEXT BLESS YOU AND AT THE END OF HOPEFULLY THEY WILL GET HERE BY THE END OF THIS FISCAL YEAR 25 IF NOT IT WILL PROBABLY YOU'LL PROBABLY SEE FIRE TRUCK SITUATION THEY GET ONE MORE FISCAL YEAR THE TOTAL REVISED BUDGET IF YOU WERE TO APPROVE THIS GO FORWARD IT WOULD BE 11,750,677 SO FAR YEAR TO DATE WE HAVE PAID $4.4 MILLION.

WE HAD RECEIVED SEVEN TRUCKS SO FAR SO WE'RE STILL EXPECTING A FEW MORE IN ADDITION TO THE LADDER TRUCKS AND THE LADDER THE TWO LADDER TRUCKS THAT WE REQUESTED IN THE NEW BUDGET, THEY PROBABLY WILL GET HERE TO THE FOURTH QUARTER 25 IF NOT ON TIME IN THE FIRST QUARTER OF 2026. SO THE REMAINING BUDGET AFTER WE PAY THE YEAR TODAY WE HAVE A $7.3 MILLION NUMBER TO PAY FOR THE REMAINING ITEMS THAT WE'RE STILL EXPECTING.

ANY QUESTIONS? YES. THANK YOU, MS. BURNETT.

VERY HELPFUL LIKE THIS FORMAT AND HELPING US TO UNDERSTAND IT ON THE PREVIOUS AND KIND OF FOLLOW UP TO MR. AMES QUESTION IN THIS CASE THE FIRE TRUCKS AND EQUIPMENT THE REVENUE SOURCE IS HOSPITALITY TAX FUND AND THAT'S THE SOLE FUND? THAT IS CORRECT. IT IS THE HOSPITALITY HAS FILED TO TO FUND FOR THE FIRE TRUCKS AND THE EQUIPMENT RIGHT AND CERTAINLY VERY GOOD EXPENDITURE OF THOSE.

SO THANK YOU THANK YOU STAMFORD THANK YOU. LOOKING AT THESE NUMBERS, I'M A LITTLE CONFUSED BECAUSE. I THOUGHT WE WERE LEASING THESE THIS EQUIPMENT IS YOU THAT YES.

SO WE'RE NOT READY TO DISCUSS THE LEASE? YES.

THERE WAS A RESOLUTION THAT WAS APPROVED BY TOWN FOR THE PROSPECT OF POTENTIALLY LEASING THIS EQUIPMENT. WE ARE RIGHT NOW IN THE PROCESS OF PARTIALLY INTERVIEWING THREE DIFFERENT COMPANIES THAT ARE TO SERVE AS OUR FINANCIAL ADVISORS.

SO WE WILL BE COMING BACK AGAIN TO YOU ONCE WE HAVE A FINANCIAL ADVISOR, ONCE WE HAVE MORE INFORMATION ABOUT WHO CAN POTENTIALLY HELP US WITH THE LEASE SERVICE WITH A LEASE PURCHASE AGREEMENT FOR YOU FOR YOUR APPROVAL IN TERMS OF TERMS IN TERMS OF WHY GOING TO DEAL WITH A LEASE AND ALL OF THAT SO YES SO TO YOUR POINT YES THE RESOLUTION WAS APPROVED FOR LEASE AND WE WILL BE DISCUSSING THE LEASE AGREEMENT AND THE TERMS WITH YOU AT A LATER BUT IT WASN'T PRACTICAL THE LEASE BECAUSE WE NEVER KNOW WHEN YOU'RE GOING TO RECEIVE THE TRUCKS. YES, YES. BECAUSE YOU TALK ABOUT LEASE A FEW YEARS BACK AND UNFORTUNATELY WE DIDN'T KNOW WHEN WE WERE RECEIVING THE TRUCKS SO IT DIDN'T ANY SENSE FOR US TO PUT A LEASE AGREEMENT BECAUSE WE HAD NO IDEA WHERE THE TRUCKS WERE GOING TO BE DELIVERED HERE. A FEW OTHER OKAY.

THANK YOU FOR WHICH PRESENTATION TO FOLLOW UP ON COUNCILMAN STANFORD'S POINT OBVIOUSLY WAS THIS BIG OF A PURCHASE AFFECTING OUR FUND BALANCE FROM THIS PARTICULAR ACCOUNT THAT'S THE DISCUSSION AROUND LEASE WILL HAVE TO HAPPEN ULTIMATELY BECAUSE WE HAVE TO DECIDE IF IT'S CASH OR IF IT'S A MEANS. THAT IS CORRECT BECAUSE RIGHT NOW WE ARE PAYING FOR THE LEASE DRUGS THAT WE HAVE. I MEAN BEFORE THE TRUCKS THAT WE HAVE RECEIVE WE'RE PAYING OUT OF THE HOSPITALITY TAX FUND .

YES. THE NEXT ITEM DEALS WITH OUR WHAT WORKS FOR PUMP STATION AND WE ARE THIS ONE IS PARTIALLY A NOT UNEXPECTED EXPENSE SO THIS ONE IS NOT A BUDGET BUDGETED

[00:35:08]

EXPENSE FOR 24 OR 25 SINCE THIS HAPPENED BECAUSE TROPICAL STORM DEBBIE SO IS A LONG BUDGETED EXPENSE AND WE HAVE COME TO THE REALIZATION THAT WE DO NEED TO REPLACE OUR TWO PALMS THAT ARE LOCATED THE WORKS FOR PUMP STATION THE WESTERN PUMP STATION TO GIVE YOU SOME HISTORICAL BACKGROUND IT WAS BUILT IN 2003 AND IT PROTECTS ABOUT 1500 ACRES UPSTREAM OF WATERSHED AND IT AFFECTS 1750 RESIDENTS AND COMMERCIAL PROPERTIES.

SO IS A BIG DEAL. WE DO NEED TO REPLACE THE PUMPS AND.

WE REALIZE WE DID PASS INSPECTION BACK IN APRIL OF 24 UNFORTUNATELY OR FORTUNATELY DURING THIS TROPICAL STORM VERY WE REALIZED THAT THE PUMPS WERE NOT IN GOOD WORKING CONDITIONS AND THEY NEEDED TO BE REPLACED IN ADDITION TO THAT ONE OF THE THINGS THAT I HAVE I HAVE A 47,550 TO TRANSFER THERE AND THUS TO COMPLETELY FINISH PAYING OFF THIS EXPENSE.

WE'RE MOVING $47,000 FROM OUR STORM WATER UTILITY FARM TO OUR SO I INCORPORATED INCORPORATED THIS AS PART OF THE 665 NUMBER BECAUSE IT IS RELATED TO OUR PALMS. YES SIR. THANK YOU AGAIN I THINK FOR THE PUBLIC STANDPOINT IT'S IMPORTANT TO UNDERSTAND WHAT'S FUNDING THIS. IT'S A BIG NUMBER.

WHAT ARE THE SOURCES OF REVENUE? IT IS THE STORM WATER UTILITY FARM AS DOES THE POND THAT IS PAYING FOR THE PUMPS. THE QUESTIONS AND THE NEXT ONE I THINK ALL OF YOU ARE AWARE OF THIS. WE HAVE LAND ACQUISITION OF $2 MILLION AND I HAVE A $75,000 AND THIS IS NOT BUDGETED IT WASN'T BUDGETED IN FOUR WASN'T BUDGETED 1325 HOWEVER WE'RE OUR REVENUE SOURCE WE ACTUALLY HAVE SO A BALANCE IN OUR TAX INCREMENT FINANCING BALANCE AND WE HAVE DECIDED TO THAT FUNDING TO PAY FOR THIS PROPERTY AND THE PROPERTY IS LOCATED ALL OF WAY AND WE'RE ASKING COUNCIL TO TO CARRY FORWARD TO TRANSFER TO UTILIZE THIS FUNDING FROM OUR ACTIVE BALANCES TO PAY FOR THIS ACQUISITION AS PRESIDENT ON ONE QUESTION I SEE IT'S FINALLY THE TIFF BALANCE. IS THERE ANYTHING LEFT AFTER THIS? AND SO WE HAD ABOUT THREE AND A HALF MILLION DOLLARS IN TIF BALANCE SO THIS ALMOST TAKES A MAJORITY OF THAT BALANCE AND THERE'S A TIMING DEADLINE I THINK INDICATE IN THE STAFF REPORT WHAT'S THAT DEADLINE FOR SPENDING THE REST OF THE YEAR WE HAVE UNTIL THE END OF THIS FISCAL YEAR SO THE END OF JULY OF 2025 TO UTILIZE THAT REMAINING BALANCE AND WE MAY SEE ANOTHER BUDGET AMENDMENT THAT THE BALANCE OF THAT FINE BEFORE JUNE 30TH 2025 SO I FORESEE ANOTHER ONE IN ADDITION TO SOMETHING THAT WE ALSO NEED TO CONSIDER IS OUR LATEST HURRICANE HELENE WE STILL HAVEN'T QUANTIFIED HOW MUCH THAT'S GOING TO COST LIKE I CAN ANTICIPATE ASKING FOR ADDITIONAL FUNDING TO PAY FOR THAT. YES. IN ADDITION TO THIS, I THINK THE QUESTIONS DOING GREAT. THANK YOU. SO THIS IS AGAIN IS A SUMMARY FOR OUR CAPITAL PROGRAM FINE. AND YOU APPROVE ABOUT $74 MILLION FOR FISCAL YEAR 25 AGAIN THE LONG TERM FUND WAS 327 FIRE TRUCKS AND EQUIPMENT 4.5 A WORKS FOR PARKS 665 THE LAND ACQUISITION THE 2975 SO THE TOTAL BUDGET AMENDMENTS IS EIGHT FOR 21 340 AND AGAIN THIS IS THE ADJUSTMENT TO BE ABLE TO PAY FOR THESE PUMPS AND WE ARE TRANSFERRING MONEY FROM OUR STORMWATER TO OUR CIP ON ACCOUNT. SO THE REVISED BUDGET THE TOTAL REVISED BUDGETS 82,000,850,351 ONE THING THAT I DO WANT TO RECOGNIZE IT RELATES TO OUR CFP ESPECIALLY FOR FISCALLY YEAR AND IN 24 WE HAVE ABOUT $28 MILLION OF UNSPENT CFP THAT IS GOING TO BE IN OUR RESERVE. OKAY WITH THAT I THINK I'LL OPEN IT TO THE TO THE GENERAL

[00:40:09]

PUBLIC FOR COMMENTS IF WE HAVE ANYBODY SIGNED UP TO ON THIS I STILL HAVE A FEW MORE.

OH I THOUGHT YOU WERE DONE. I'M AFRAID YOU'RE GETTING TIRED.

I KNOW. I KNOW YOU'RE GETTING TIRED OF ME TALKING ABOUT THIS ONE MORE AND I THINK I'M FINISHED. OKAY. MY APOLOGIES.

NO, THAT'S OKAY. STORM WATER UTILITY FIRM. THIS ONE IS A CARRY FORWARD AND THEN THE SOURCE SOURCE IS AGAIN IS THE STORMWATER UTILITY FUND .

THIS ONE WE ACTUALLY SIGNED CONTRACTS IN 2020 FOR WHAT WAS IN PROGRESS IN FISCAL YEAR 24 AND THIS WILL END IN 2025. SO THERE'S PROJECTS THAT ARE TAKING PLACE AND THEY ALL ARE AS STORM WATER UTILITY RELATED. SO THESE ARE FUNDS AND WE'RE ASKING FOR US TO CARRY FORWARD FOR YOU TO CARRY FORWARD THE 474,241 FROM 24 TO 25 TO PAY FOR THIS WORK THAT IS BEING DONE. QUESTIONS COMMENTS.

BROWN YEAH I WANT TO COMMEND THE STAFF THEY ARE SORT OF STRETCHING AS MUCH AS THEY CAN STRETCH IT THE STORMWATER UTILITY NOW AND THEY'LL GO HOME WITH A BUDGET AMENDMENT TRYING TO MOVE A FEW FORWARD. THE RESILIENCY PLAN OBVIOUSLY IS IN HERE THAT WE TALKED ABOUT LAST I GUESS I'M SORT OF TEAM THIS UP THIS IS DIFFERENT IN MY OPINION THEN THE CFP THAT WE CONTINUE TO CARRY FORWARD BECAUSE EVERY TIME SOMETHING DOES NOT MAKE IT TO THIS LIST WE ARE CREATING MORE OF AN ISSUE FOR OUR RESIDENTS. IT COMES TO STORMWATER SO I KNOW WE'VE GOT A WORKSHOP COMING UP SO JUST SORT OF TEAM IT UP TODAY BECAUSE IS DEFINITELY SOMETHING THAT NEEDS OUR FULL ATTENTION. AGREED OKAY.

THE NEXT ONE THE NEXT ITEM IS ON EMERGENT MATTERS DUE TO TROPICAL STORM DEBBIE.

THIS IS A BIG NUMBER IS NOT A BUDGETED AMOUNT SO IT'S NOT SOMETHING THAT WE'RE CARRYING FROM THE YEAR BEFORE THE REVENUE SOURCE AGAIN IS THE STORMWATER UTILITY PHONE AND THIS IS THERE'S A LOT OF DIFFERENT THINGS I'M GOING BACK TO YOUR COMMENT, MR. BROWN THERE'S I THINK DURING TIMES OF STORMS I THINK WE REALIZE HOW SOME AREAS OF OUR INFRASTRUCTURE HAS TO BE IMPROVED AND AND HOW IN THE STORM I THINK WE REALIZE THAT WE NEED TO WORK ON THIS. THIS IS A SITUATION HERE WE WERE NOT EXPECTING TO HAVE $1,000,000 IN EXPENSES BUT THIS IS SOMETHING THAT WE TO FIX WE HAVE TO FIX OUR INFRASTRUCTURE, OUR MAINTENANCE AND THERE'S DIFFERENT THINGS THAT ARE HAPPENING WITH OUR PUMP STATIONS. SO WE WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT WE HAVE THE MONEY BE ABLE TO FIX THIS. ONE THING THAT I DO WANT TO MENTION IS WE DO HAVE A MEETING COMING UP WITH FEMA. WE ARE TO MAKE SURE THAT WE GET ALL THE DOCUMENTATION PLACE AND ALL THE INFORMATION THAT WE NEED TO HAVE SO WE CAN SUBMIT THIS TO FEMA, SEE IF WE CAN GET REIMBURSED FOR THIS SO NOW IT IS AN EXPENSE THAT WE HAVE TO ABSORB BUT THE GOAL IS TO APPLY FOR REIMBURSEMENT. OKAY. FROM THAT I WAS ONE IN THREE.

CORRECT. A MAINTENANCE PROGRAM ONE OF THOSE A THE TABLE I'M SORRY I DIDN'T HEAR YOU. YES YES WHATEVER THE WHATEVER QUESTION WAS ANSWERED.

YEAH OKAY. YOU'VE GOT CORRECTIVE MAINTENANCE UP THERE TWICE.

OH I APOLOGIZE FOR THAT. I JUST WANT YOU TO REALIZE THAT WE REALLY NEED THAT THIS IS THE

[00:45:02]

THE SUMMARY AGAIN WAS APPROVED FOR FISCAL YEAR 2025 IS 7.5 THE AMENDMENTS THAT WE HAVE ARE AGAIN 474 THE EMERGENT MAINTENANCE IS 1035 AND THE TOTAL BUDGET AMENDMENT IS $1.5 MILLION ADDING AGAIN THE $47,000 ADJUSTMENT THAT WE HAVE TO MAKE TO MORE FUNDS FROM THE STORMWATER FUND THE CFP INCLUDING THAT AMOUNT THE REVISED BUDGET 9,082,691 QUESTIONS AGAIN AGAIN THIS TIME I AM I AM I APPRECIATE YOUR REPORT AND I APPRECIATE THE DETAIL. IT'S VERY HELPFUL. BUT AGAIN I THINK FOR CLARITY TO THE PUBLIC WHEN WE'RE TALKING ABOUT UNBUDGETED EXPENSE THAT HAD TO DO WITH THE STORMWATER OF THAT REASON WE CARRY ON FUND AS MUCH AS WE DO IN THE STORMWATER UTILITIES PLAN IS JUST TO COVER EXPENSES SUCH LIKE THIS. SO IT'S A RESERVE FUND.

YES IT IS GREAT. YOU AND I JUST WANTED TO BACK ON THE PREVIOUS SLIDE EXCUSE ME THERE WAS POETIC AGREEMENT SYSTEMS PUBLIC SYSTEMS JUST THE QUESTION WE HAVE THIS STORM THE STORMWATER CONTRACT AGREEMENT WITH BETWEEN THE TOWN AND THE P.O. PLACE NOW ARE YOU DAYS ARE ALL OF THOSE SIGNED ON AS COMPLETE NOW EACH ONE OF THEM FINISHED AS NOW THERE'S STILL SOME OUTSTANDING ONES FOR WHEN THE YES I'M JUST TRYING TO MAKE SURE I UNDERSTAND YOUR QUESTION JOHN JUST FROM A FROM A MAYBE ON THE MICROPHONE SO PEOPLE CAN HEAR BUT FROM A FROM MEASUREMENT STANDPOINT WE WON WE'RE HAVING A WORKSHOP FOR FOR THOSE FOLKS THAT ARE WATCHING AND REALLY FOR TOWN COUNCIL WE ARE HAVING WORKSHOP OCTOBER 30TH WHAT TIME 9 A.M. 9 A.M. TO TALK ABOUT THE STORMWATER UTILITY PROGRAM SEAN HOW MANY FORGIVE ME FOR NOT KNOWING BUT HOW MANY AGREEMENTS ARE IN PLACE? WE HAVE 22 IN PLACE.

HOW MANY ARE PENDING FOR WHAT COMPANY THEY'LL COME IN NOVEMBER TO COUNCIL AND HOW MANY POTENTIAL MIGHT THERE BE IF THEY ACTUALLY WERE INTERESTED? ANOTHER 32 THAT'S WHAT I WANTED TO KNOW. YOU SURPRISING? YES. THANK YOU MAYOR. I APPRECIATE THAT WE'RE IN THE PROCESS OF TRYING TO ASSESS EVERYTHING AND HAVE AN UPCOMING MEETING WITH FEMA AND AS I UNDERSTAND IT, THE STORM THE MILLION DOLLAR AMOUNT THERE MILLION 35,000 373 THOSE PROJECTS MIGHT BE ELIGIBLE FOR FEMA REIMBURSEMENT WORKING ON THAT BUT I THINK IT'D BE HELPFUL FOR THE PUBLIC TO SOME OF WHAT HAPPENED AND JUST LOOKING AT YOUR STAFF REPORT THE CRITICAL DRAINAGE DURING TROPICAL STORM DEBBY STRUCTURES FAILING LOCATIONS 42 INCH PIPE AND SHIPYARD COLLAPSED REQUIRING IMMEDIATE REPAIR TO PROTECT SHIPYARD AT NORTH FOREST BEACH AND ANOTHER 42 INCH PIPE IN SPANISH WELLS COLLAPSED AND IS AT RISK OF COMPLETE FAILURE WHICH THREATENS OVER 40% OF THE SPANISH WELLS COMMUNITY.

SO IMMEDIATE ARE ESSENTIAL AND THE TOTAL COST OF THOSE TOO IS $615,010.

SO THAT'S THE BULK OF THAT. SO I THINK IT'S IT'S IMPORTANT FOR FOLKS TO KNOW THAT WE REACTED AWAY. UNFORTUNATELY WE HAD TWO COLLAPSES BUT THAT THE REPAIRS ARE UNDERWAY OR WE'RE WAITING ON PARTS YARD FIXING IN THEM IS UNDERWAY AND WE'LL GET SOME REIMBURSEMENT ON I JUST WANTED TO FOLLOW UP ON THE QUESTION ON THE PONDS.

I GOT THE ANSWER OF THE FIVE PONDS THAT ARE PART OF THIS BUDGET.

REMEMBER POND ON LEMOYNE POND AT ABBEY WALK A POND A LITTLE COUNTRY CELEBRATION PARK THE POND HERE AT TOWN AND THEN UPON AN EXECUTIVE PARK AND POPE AVENUE SO THOSE ARE THE FIVE.

OKAY. LET ME ASK FOR SOME CLARIFICATION.

THOSE THOSE ARE PUBLICLY MANAGED PONDS NOT PRIVATELY MANAGED PONDS.

WHAT I'M FOR WITH THE PUBLIC PROPERTY OR AGREEMENTS CORRECT ? YES, SIR. I'M TRYING IF YOU COULD BEFORE YOU GO WHEN WE WERE TALKING ABOUT THE STORM WATER IN THE PUMPS, YOU KNOW, 2020, 20, 24 FOR THE GENERAL PUBLIC, WHAT IS TIMEFRAMES LOOKING LIKE TO HAVE THESE PUMPS BUILT AND DELIVERED ? WHAT IS IT LOOKING LIKE FOR HAVE THESE FIRE TRUCKS BUILT AND DELIVERED FROM A TIME STANDPOINT? THAT'S AN EXCELLENT QUESTION AND I CAN SPEAK SPECIFICALLY THE PUMPS I KNOW CHIEF CAN GIVE YOU A TIMEFRAME TO BUILD A SPEC AND BUILD A FIRE TRUCK IS IT'S AT LEAST A YEAR IF NOT LONGER. SO FOR THE PUMPS THAT WE ORDERED LONGTON STATION WE CAME TO YOU FOR A BUDGET AMENDMENT THINK IN FEBRUARY OF 22 BECAUSE WE HAD AN ISSUE I AFTER

[00:50:06]

TROPICAL STORM NICOLE WON I THINK THAT THE NAME OF IT TEN MONTHS MINIMUM LEAD TIME SO SO WE ORDERED TWO OF THE THREE PUMPS AND THEN WE BUDGETED IN THE IN THE UPCOMING FISCAL CYCLE FOR THE THIRD WE ORDERED THE PUMP IN SEPTEMBER OF LAST YEAR AND IT WAS INSTALLED SEPTEMBER 4TH OF THIS YEAR. SO IT'S RUNNING ABOUT A YEAR TO GET A PUMP MANUFACTURED FOR OUR SYSTEMS AND THAT'S WHY WE'RE BEFORE YOU TODAY RATHER WAIT FOR THE NEXT BUDGET CYCLE WE HAVE SOME ISSUES AND SO KNOWING WE NEED TO ORDER THEM THAT IT'LL TAKE TEN MONTHS OR MAYBE A LITTLE LONGER. WE WANT TO GET OUT AHEAD OF IT AND GET THOSE PUMPS THE ORDER PLACED AS SOON AS WE CAN. RIGHT. SO IT COVERS MULTIPLE BUDGET CYCLES. I CARRY THOSE ARE ABSOLUTELY NO MORE.

YES, YOU HAD OF COURSE IN THE FIRE TRUCKS HE SAID THREE YEARS OKAY.

YEAH HE JUST HELD UP THREE FINGERS. OKAY AGAIN THIS IS TO SUMMARIZE WHAT I JUST PRESENTED FOR THE GENERAL FUND. WE'RE TALKING ABOUT 1.6 A CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM FINE IS 8.5 AND THE STORMWATER UTILITY FOR THIS 1.6 SO THIS IS A PROPOSE A MOTION I MOVE THE TOWN OF HILTON HEAD ISLAND ADOPT AN ORDINANCE ON FIRST READING AMENDING THE BUDGET FOR THE FISCAL YEAR JUNE 30, 2025 TO PROVIDE FOR THE ROLL FORWARD OF CERTAIN BUDGETED APPROPRIATIONS FOR THE PRIOR YEAR BUDGET TO PROVIDE CERTAIN IN APPROPRIATIONS AND COMMITMENTS FOR THE EXPENDITURE OF CERTAIN FUNDS AND TO ALLOCATE RESOURCES OF REVENUE FOR THOSE OF US IN THE FOLLOWING MANNER.

SO THE GENERAL THE AMOUNT OF 1.6 TO THE CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM IN AMOUNT OF 8.5 AND TO THE STORMWATER UTILITY FINE FOR 1.6. ONE THING THAT I HAVE TO MENTION BEFORE YOU MAKE A MOTION AND THIS IS SOMETHING THE ORDINANCE DOCUMENT ON PAGE FIVE THOSE ON THE MOUND THAT I THERE'S A TYPO AND THAT'S IN RELATION THE CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM YOU SHOW A DIFFERENT AMOUNT THAT THE 8.5 AMOUNT SO WE HAVE CORRECTED THAT SO THERE'S A REVISED ORDINANCE ANNUAL RECEIVED THAT AS WELL AND WE PUT IT OUT TO THE PUBLIC TO SEE AS WELL. SO I JUST WANTED TO MAKE YOU AWARE OF THAT TYPE OR THAT ERROR THAT I MADE AS RELATES TO THAT NUMBER. THANK YOU FOR THAT.

CAN YOU ALSO QUICKLY THE FUND BALANCE INCREASE THE FUND BALANCE INCREASE IN RELATION TO THE 47,000 OR IN RELATION TO I'M SORRY 30 MILLION? OH, THAT IS 30 MILLION.

YES. THANK YOU SO FACILITY FOR THAT OUR CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT AS YOU KNOW WE WE BUDGETED FOR 24 WE BUDGETED ABOUT $55 MILLION. I BELIEVE THAT WAS THE AMOUNT THAT WAS APPROVED BY YOU AND OF THE 20 OF THE $55 MILLION SO YOU APPROVE WE DID NOT UTILIZE $28 MILLION. SO THAT IS MONEY THAT HASN'T BEEN SPENT.

THAT IS IN OUR RESERVE AND PART OF OUR PHONE BALANCE AS IT RELATES TO THE $2.2 MILLION FOR GENERAL FUND IS THE SAME SITUATION IS MONEY THAT IS WASN'T SPENT IN 2024 AND IS MONEY THAT IS STILL IN OUR UNSPENT AND IS STILL IN OUR RESERVE AND PART OF OUR GENERAL FUND BALANCE. MR. LINDEN YES, THANK YOU, MAYOR.

AND I THINK THAT'S AN IMPORTANT PART BECAUSE. WE ARE ASKING TO AMEND THE BUDGET WITH WITH AS WE HAVE A TRADITIONALLY ASKED YOU TO MOVE FORWARD THOSE ELEMENTS THAT ARE EITHER UNDER CONSTRUCTION OR THOSE PROJECTS THAT ARE STILL IN THE CIP PROGRAM I THINK IS IMPORTANT TO MENTION THAT $2.2 MILLION IN GENERAL FUND RATE WE WE PROJECTED AND WE WE WE HAD MORE REVENUE THAN OUR IN OUR CONSERVATIVE PROJECTIONS AND THEN WE ALSO SPENT LESS THAN WHAT WE BUDGETED NOT ON PURPOSE THIS WAS B BECAUSE OF CIRCUMSTANCE AND TRADITIONALLY IN CAPITAL PROGRAMING WE WOULD WE WOULD SET THE BUDGET AMOUNT FOR THE YEAR THEN ROLL FORWARD THOSE ON UNSPENT PROJECTS FOR THIS YEAR WE PUT THE CASH DOLLARS IN AND WE ARE NOT ROLLING FORWARD THE DOLLARS I WAS TALKING ABOUT SIMPLY BECAUSE WE DON'T NEED IT BASED UPON PROJECT SCHEDULES. WE HAD A QUICK CONVERSATION ABOUT AT THE FINANCE ADMINISTRATIVE COMMITTEE AND I THINK IT IS A IT IS AN IMPORTANT NOTE TO ADD THAT IN THE MIDST OF A LARGER BUDGET THIS YEAR AND THE MIDST OF BUILDING MORE CAPITAL TRYING TO BUILD MORE CAPITAL PROJECTS AND WE HAVE IN A REALLY LONG TIME WE HAVE PUT IN OUR FUND BALANCE RESERVE BASED UPON UNSPENT ANNUAL FUND INTEREST EARNED AND UNSPENT CAPITAL

[00:55:07]

PROJECTS PLUS OR -$30 MILLION SEPARATE FROM THIS. YES, IT IS SEPARATE FROM THIS AND ONE THING THAT I DO WANT TO MENTION AS IT RELATES TO OUR BUDGET FORCE FOR THIS YEAR THAT YOU APPROVED $74 MILLION THESE ARE MULTI-YEAR PROJECTS SOME OF THESE PROJECTS WILL YOU WON'T BE WE WILL BE ABLE TO FINALIZE IN ONE YEAR. SOME OF THEM ARE MULTI-YEAR PROJECTS POTENTIALLY COULD BE TWO, THREE OR FOUR YEARS. SO I JUST TO PUT THIS OUT THERE AS WE START THINKING ABOUT FISCAL YEAR 26 I STARTED THINKING ABOUT CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROJECTS AND THIS IS MORE A QUESTION THAN A STATEMENT IS WHY NOT DO FIVE YEAR CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT BUDGETS THAN A YEAR BECAUSE RIGHT NOW WE ARE ASKING FOR $74 MILLION SO WE ASK FOR $74 MILLION AND WE KNOW FOR A FACT THAT WE WILL BE BUILDING OR FINISHING THIS PROJECT IN ONE YEAR. SO WE NEED WE NEED TO POTENTIALLY THINK ABOUT WHAT A FIVE YEAR CIP BUDGET LOOKS LIKE SO.

I JUST WANTED TO PUT THAT OUT THERE FOR YOU TO THINK ABOUT WHAT THAT MEANS US THANK YOU.

OTHERWISE WAS I TRULY APPRECIATE THE EXPERTIZE AND THE CLARITY YOU BRING TO THE DIALOG. THANK YOU. I'M NOT SURE THAT EVERYBODY IN THE COMMUNITY IS TUNED IN SO I THINK IT'S IMPORTANT THAT WE PROJECT THE KIND OF LEVEL OF SECURITY THAT THIS COMMUNITY HAS FINANCIALLY AND ONE WAY TO DO THAT MIGHT BE FOR AND ACTUALLY MAY ALREADY BE AS A PIE CHART THAT THE TOTAL AMOUNT THE PIE CHART IS THE ANNUAL BUDGET INCLUDING ALL THE FUNDS AND THE PIE CHART IS DIVIDED UP TO THE REVENUE SOURCES THAT THIS TOWN HAS SO THAT PEOPLE UNDERSTAND THAT ONLY 30% OF THE MONEY THAT WE ARE EXPANDING COMES FROM PROPERTY TAXES THAT NUMBER IS APPROXIMATE BUT THINK IT'S IMPORTANT FROM A TRANSPARENCY STANDPOINT AND ALSO BECAUSE I HEAR IN THE COMMUNITY SOMETIMES I DON'T WANT MY PROPERTY TAXES TO INCREASE WHEN PROPORTIONALLY THEY'RE NOT SIGNIFICANT AS SIGNIFICANT SO IF I UNDERSTAND YOUR YOUR STATEMENT WHAT YOU ARE PROPOSING IS FOR US TO CREATE A REVENUE SOURCE PIE AND HOW WE ARE UTILIZING THE DIFFERENT SOURCES OF REVENUE THAT WE COLLECT IN OUR COMMUNITY AND TO YOUR POINT PROPERTY TAXES WE DON'T SPEND 100% ON PROPERTY TAXES IN PARKS WE DON'T SO AGAIN IS IS CREATING A PIE THAT ALLOCATES OR HELP THE COMMUNITY UNDERSTAND HOW WE ARE ALLOCATING THE SOURCES OF FUNDING THANK YOU VERY MUCH WE CAN ACCOMPLISH THAT JUST FROM THANK YOU MS. BURNETT AGAIN SHE HAS BEEN SORT OF CHALLENGED THE ANTHONY COMMITTEE ABOUT PRESENTING IDEAS TO US. SO I JUST WANT TO REITERATE HER COMMENTS OR LAST QUESTION ABOUT THE FIVE YEAR PLAN I THINK IS SOMETHING THAT WE AS A COUNCIL NEED TO TAKE TIME TO SERIOUSLY CONSIDER OBVIOUSLY WE NEED KEEP THAT CAPITAL INVESTMENT GOING IN OUR COMMUNITY TO STAY FRESH CLEAN BUT AT THE SAME TIME IT IS A CONFUSING AND COMPLICATED PROCESS BECAUSE MOST OF THE TIME IT IS A MULTI-YEAR DEAL AND SOMETIMES USE SEE SPIKES IN OUR BUDGET WHICH OBVIOUSLY TWO COUNCILMAN WEEKS BRINGS EGGS FROM COMMUNITY SO I KNOW THAT THE TEAM WELL EQUIPPED TO SORT OF PRESENT SOMETHING TO US AS WE MOVE THE NEXT FISCAL YEAR AROUND MAYBE A MULTI-YEAR CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT BUDGET SO I'M I'M IN FAVOR OF THAT. I THINK WE NEED TO GET OUT OF THE BOX LITTLE BIT ON THIS ONE. BUT AT THE END OF THE DAY I THINK IT IS ALSO IMPORTANT THAT WE'RE BEING VERY TRANSPARENT AND WE'RE GOING TO INVEST YOU KNOW, WE HAVE COLLECTED FUNDS AND WE NEED TO SPEND THEM BACK OUR COMMUNITY.

SO AGAIN, THANK YOU FOR SORT OF BRINGING SOME NEW IDEAS TO IT AS FAR AS CONFIRM AND.

THANK YOU. ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? WELL, NOW YOU DON'T KNOW.

I AM FINISHED THINKING MORE FEEL LIKE WE HAVE ANYBODY SIGNED UP TO SPEAK NOW.

[01:00:03]
