MOTION TO ADOPT THE AGENDA AMONG ALL THOSE IN FAVOR PLEASE SIGNIFY BY RAISING YOUR HAND 
          [3. a. Review and Discussion of Draft Fiscal Year 2026 - Fiscal Year 2028 StrategicAction Plan]
APPROVE SEVEN ZERO SO QUICK OPENING REMARKS SO THROUGHOUT THE DAY SO THE PUBLIC IS AWARE THAT AS WE GO THROUGH THE THE INDIVIDUAL ITEMS ON THE AGENDA THROUGH THE PRESENTATION WE'LL HAVE COMMENTS THAT TIME WE DON'T HAVE ANYBODY SIGNING UP BUT WE'LL CALL IT OUT AS WE GO THROUGH JUST TO KEEP IT A LITTLE BIT FREE FLOWING. I DO ASK COUNCIL TO PARTICIPATE AND HAVE GREAT DISCUSSIONS AND AS WE'RE PRIORITIZING THESE THESE PLANS I WANT US TO THINK ABOUT TWO DIFFERENT THINGS AND AND FOREMOST IS STAFF'S CAPACITY TO EXECUTE THAT WHICH WE EXPECT TO BE DONE OVER THE NEXT 1224 AND 36 MONTHS. I ALSO ASK YOU TAKE A LOOK AT COUNCIL CAPACITY TO MOVE FORWARD SOME OF THE ITEMS WITH DECISIONS FOR STAFF SO THAT THEY CAN ACT UPON THE DIRECTION OF COUNCIL SO A LITTLE MORE DETAIL ON THAT IS ARE PREPARED TO APPROVE AND MOVE SOME OF THESE THINGS FORWARD IN AN EXPEDITIOUS MANNER OR WITHIN THE SAME TIMEFRAME THAT WE EXPECT COUNCIL OR I'M SORRY STAFF TO MOVE IT FORWARD SO JUST KEEP THAT IN THE BACK YOUR MIND BECAUSE WE'VE GOT A LOT OF DIFFERENT THINGS THAT WE'LL BE TALKING ABOUT AND KNOW THAT MAYBE SOME OF THEM NEED TO BE PRIORITIZED OVER OTHERS AND THAT'S WHY WE'RE TODAY. SO WITH THAT BEING SAID, MARK, I'LL TURN IT OVER TO YOU SIR. 
          GOOD MORNING EVERYBODY AND THANKS FOR BEING HERE. THANKS FOR YOUR TIME AGAIN NOT TO REITERATE MUCH OF WHAT MAYOR PERRY JUST I DO WANT TO START BY A BIG THANK YOU TO SHAUN COLON WHO HAS WORKED TIRELESSLY TO PUT THIS PLAN TOGETHER AS IS I'VE WORKED WITH HIM. 
          HE'S WORKED WITH DEPARTMENT HEADS AND WE'VE DEFINITELY LEANED ON AND WORKED VERY CLOSELY WITH MATT AND HEATHER. SO WE'D JUST LIKE TO ACKNOWLEDGE TIME THAT'S BEING PUT INTO ESTABLISHING THE STRATEGIC PLAN NOT JUST THE Y WHICH I THINK WE HAVE DECIDED UPON BUT THE WHAT AND THE HOW THE WHEN AND HOW FOR LATER. SO I THINK I THINK THAT OUR STRATEGIC PLAN FROM MY PERSPECTIVE IS IS THE BEST ONE YET SINCE MY TIME HERE WE'RE PROUD OF IT. WE KNOW THAT THERE'S SOME WORK TO DO TODAY TO TALK ABOUT THOSE THOSE PRIORITY GOALS AS. WELL AS THE PRIORITY YEARS THAT WE'RE TRYING TO TO WORK EVERY ACTION ITEM SO WE APPRECIATE YOUR COMMENTS OUT OF THE GATE REALIZING THAT YOU KNOW I THINK WE ALL COME THE TABLE AS I ALWAYS USE AN ANALOGY AS I GO TO THE GROCERY STORE HUNGRY DON'T WE ALL COME TO THE TABLE THIS SENIOR TEAM ENTREPRENEURIAL IN THE SENSE THAT WE WANT TO DO MORE AND WE TO DO IT FASTER AND WE ALSO KNOW THAT QUALITY OVER MATTERS ESPECIALLY RIGHT NOW IN HILTON HEAD ISLAND I THINK YOU'RE GOING TO SEE TODAY A WEALTH ON OUR STRATEGIC PLAN THAT'S NOT PERFECT. NO STRATEGIC PLAN IS WE REMEMBER WE COME BACK EVERY YEAR YOU CAN ADD YOU CAN SUBTRACT, WE CAN TELL YOU WHAT'S WORKING. WE CAN EXPLAIN WHY IT'S NOT AND WE CAN CELEBRATE OUR WINS EVERY YEAR. A COUPLE OF TIMES A YEAR WILL BE COMING AND ABOUT IT. 
          BUT I THINK WHAT YOU'LL SEE TODAY IS STILL IN YEAR ONE. THERE'S STILL A HEAVY LIFT AND IT'S BECAUSE I THINK WE'RE TRYING TO FIGURE OUT ALL THE GOOD THINGS THAT THERE ARE TO ACCOMPLISH. BUT TODAY'S REALITY TEST SHOULD BE CAN WE DO IT ALL AT ONCE? SO WITH THAT NOW BACK TO YOU AND HEATHER, WELCOME BACK. YOU KNOW, I DO MARK SHAWN AND STAFF HAVE DONE A GREAT JOB AND ACTUALLY AS WELL AND GOING THROUGH THE PAST COUPLE WEEKS TO TO BUILD THIS PROGRAM FOR TODAY SO I'LL TURN IT OVER TO TO MATT HORN AND HEATHER SEMMENS JONES THE MOORBY GROUP SO WHICH I'LL TAKE IT OVER. THANKS. 
          THANKS AGAIN FOR HAVING US. WE ARE REALLY PROUD OF THE WORK THAT YOU ALL DID IN FEBRUARY IT GAVE US A TREMENDOUS SPRINGBOARD TO BACK TO THE TABLE TO WORK WITH YOU TO ORGANIZE THIS AS MARK PUTS IT THE HOW IN THE ONE ARM AND SO YOU KNOW FOR TODAY I THIS SETTING RIGHT IT'S CLOSE AND WE'RE WE'LL NEED THAT CLOSENESS TO GET TO GET THE KIND OF WORK DONE THAT WE'LL NEED TO GET DONE. THIS IS I THINK MAYBE EVEN HARDER THAN THE WORK WE DID BACK IN FEBRUARY BECAUSE EVERY ONE OF THE ACTION ITEMS THAT 
          [00:05:02]
YOU SEE IN THE PLAN TOUCHES SOMEBODY HERE OR TOUCHES ONE OF YOUR CONSTITUENT AND HE'S VERY PASSIONATE ABOUT THE TO DO LIST AHEAD OF US I WANT TO ECHO BOTH THE MAYOR AND MARK'S TAKES THOUGH THAT WHEN YOU DON'T PRIORITIZE WHEN EVERYTHING'S BIG THING, WHEN WE'RE TRYING TO PAY ATTENTION TO EVERYTHING OR DO EVERYTHING AT ONCE, VERY LITTLE ACTUALLY GETS DONE RIGHT. AND SO WHAT YOU HAVE BEFORE YOU AND WE'LL DIG AT IT BUT WHAT YOU HAVE YOU IS WHAT SHAWN AND I WERE JUST CHATTING ABOUT BEFORE THE SESSION WHICH IS WHAT ON TRYING TERMS IS A REALLY BALANCED FROM A TIMING PERSPECTIVE FOR 70 ACTION ITEMS TO BE ACCOMPLISHED IN NEXT TWO YEARS AND THEY'RE PRETTY WELL SPREAD OUT AND THEY'RE ORDERED IN SUCH A WAY THAT WE NEED TO DO THIS REALLY WELL SO WE CAN GET TO THAT AS WE WORK THROUGH THIS THERE WILL BE TEMPTATION AT THE TABLE TO SAY LET'S JUST BUMP THIS ONE UP. 
          LET'S JUST MOVE THIS WAY TO YEAR ONE. IT'S VERY IMPORTANT TO MY CONSTITUENTS OR IT'S VERY POWERFUL TALK ABOUT THAT AND WE CAN WORK THROUGH THAT BUT UNDERSTANDING THAT MAYBE NOT ON A ONE FOR ONE BASIS BUT AS WE START TO MOVE THINGS UP WE'RE GOING TO HAVE TO LOOK AT WHAT DOESN'T GET DONE IN YEAR ONE. YOU HAVE A TEAM THAT IN MY ESTIMATION WON'T DO ANYTHING YOU ASK THEM TO DO. THEY WILL PUT THEIR SHOULDER INTO IT AND AND TRY TO MAKE IT HAPPEN FOR YOU THERE. THROUGHPUT IS ONLY ONE PART OF THE PART OF THE EQUATION AND THE MAYOR HIT THE NAIL ON THE HEAD THE DECISION MAKING CAPACITY THIS COUNCIL IS A FACTOR ONLY BECAUSE I'M TO NEGOTIATE NAVIGATE AND PRIORITIZE AND SO MARK AT THE AT THE FEBRUARY SESSION OUT PROBABLY THE FIRST TIME I'VE EVER SEEN A COUNCIL AT SOMETHING THIS WAY I WANT TO GET THIS DONE HERE IS LEGISLATIVE CALENDAR OVER THE NEXT BUNCH OF HOW MANY MEETINGS YOU HAVE OVER THE NEXT BUNCH OF YEARS AND AS WE ALL WANT TO BE HERE UNTIL MIDNIGHT TWICE A MONTH FOR THE NEXT THREE YEARS ARE ONLY GOING TO GET SO MUCH SO AND BRING OUR OUR TWO RULES GET THE BIG THINGS RIGHT AND AND NOT KNOW THE PURPOSE. TODAY'S WORKSHOP IS FOR US TO COME TO CONSENSUS ON WHAT THE BIG THINGS ARE ON WHEN THE BIG THINGS HAVE TO BE EXECUTED ASK HEATHER TO TO BE A BIT OF A PROD. RIGHT. SHE'S GOING TO BE WATCHING FOR I MOUTH SAYS YES BUT MY HEART SAYS NO EXPRESSIONS AND SO ACT HEATHER TO WATCH FOR YOU TWISTING IN YOUR SEATS OR OR BEING FAIRLY QUIET AROUND A CERTAIN ISSUE SO ONCE YOU THAT WE WANT YOU TO PARTICIPATE WE WANT YOU TO ENGAGE IN THESE OTHER THINGS YOU'RE EXCITED ABOUT THE THINGS YOU'RE NOT SO EXCITED ABOUT OUR OTHER RULES OF THUMB AND FACILITATION ARE JUST NICE. BE RESPECTFUL. WE'RE ALL HERE FOR THE RIGHT REASONS BUT YOU GOT IT. YOU GOT TO ENGAGE BECAUSE IF WE MAKE THE DECISIONS NOW PARTICULARLY AROUND PRIORITIZATION WE WON'T HAVE TO DO AS MUCH OF LATER SO THAT'S THE BIGGEST GOAL FOR TODAY IS ANSWERS IT'S NOT ALWAYS UNANIMOUS BUT CONSENSUS AROUND THE ACTION IN THIS PLAN ORDER AND THE LEVEL OF EFFORT YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE YOUR TEAM AND I'LL ALSO SAY AND MAYBE THIS COMES A BIT LATER IN THE AGENDA BUT I'LL TOUCH ON IT HERE YOU. 
          YOU KNOW, FROM FROM OUR PERSPECTIVE WHEN WE LOOKED AT AT THE WAY THE PLAN IS FRAMED UP AND WE LOOKED AT THE PRIORITY ITEMS, WE ORDERED THEM SUCH A WAY AS WE THOUGHT WAS REFLECTIVE OF THE EXERCISE IS THAT WE ENGAGED IN BACK IN FEBRUARY BUT I THINK MARK HIT THE NAIL ON THE HEAD EVERY ONE OF THESE PRIORITY ACTION AREAS EVERY ONE OF THESE PRIORITY POLICY AREAS IS GOING TO BE WORKED ON ALL THE TIME RIGHT. SO WHETHER IN THE BOOK IT SITS ATOP THE ORDER OR NEAR THE END OF THE ORDER WHERE I USED TO HIT WHEN I WAS IN LITTLE LEAGUE SOMEWHERE NEAR POSITION NINE OR TEN WE'RE STILL GOING TO WE'RE STILL GOING TO ACT ON IT. 
          WE'RE STILL GOING TO MOVE IT FORWARD AND ASK YOU TWO TO THINK THROUGH THAT AS WELL. 
          SO OUR ONLY GOAL FOR TODAY IS TO WALK OUT OF HERE WITH WITH GOOD SOLID CONSENSUS AND DIRECTION FOR WHERE THIS PLAN IS HEADED AND THEN MARK WILL TALK AT THE END ABOUT HOW WE MEMORIALIZE THAT, HOW WE SET THAT. IN ADDITION BUT BUT SOMETHING 
          [00:10:06]
THAT THE STAFF CAN THEN LEAN IN ON ANYTHING ELSE AND TO MAKE THAT MARKET A WILL THAT MATT HEATHER WHAT YOU ARE GOING TO FIND TODAY IS THE TOWN COUNCIL AND I DON'T WANT TO SPEAK FOR YOU ALL MY PARISH ESPECIALLY YOU'RE GOING TO FIND A WILLINGNESS TO TAKE THOSE BIG THINGS AND AND AGREE ON THEM WE'VE MADE A LOT MOMENTUM ON SOME OF THE POLICY WORK THAT WE'VE BEEN TALKING SINCE YOU'VE BEEN HERE LAST. AND SO GET READY. 
          GOOD. AWESOME. THAT'S THE ONE LAST QUICK LOOK AT THE AGENDA WE'RE HERE AT AT NUMBER TWO NOW MOVE FORWARD. WE'RE JUST GOING TO SPEND A VERY LITTLE BIT OF TIME ON HOW WE HERE ON WHAT THE PLANNING FOUNDATIONS ARE. 
          MARK AND THE TEAM HAVE BEEN VERY ABOUT MAKING SURE THAT THIS TIES BACK TO THE TO THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN THAT WE'RE ANCHORED TO TO SOMETHING THAT THE COMMUNITY HAS ON OUT AND AGREED TO. SO WE'LL TALK THROUGH A LITTLE BIT ABOUT THAT TALK A LITTLE BIT ABOUT HOW WE GOT THE THE PLAN AND PUT TOGETHER WE SPLIT YOU KNOW THERE'S TEN POLICY AREAS HERE AND TEN PRIORITIES WE SPLIT THEM A LITTLE BIT BEFORE LUNCH AND AFTER LUNCH. 
          SO WE'RE GOING TO TRY TO TACKLE THE FIRST HALF OF THE PLAN THIS MORNING AND THEN DIG THE LAST HALF OF THE PLAN THIS AFTERNOON . WE MAY CALL JUST A BIT OF AN AUDIBLE TO SAY FIGURING OUT IF THERE'S ANYTHING WE NEED TO SPEND MORE OR LESS TIME ON RIGHT. WE FELT THE RACE AT THE END OF THE LAST WHERE WE WE HAD TO KIND OF BUTTON UP AND WE DON'T WANT TO PUT ANY REAL CRITICAL DISCUSSION POINTS AT 255 THIS AFTERNOON AND SAY I POKE AT YOU A LITTLE BIT JUST TO ASK IF THERE'S ANYTHING THAT WE SHOULD SPEND MORE OR LESS TIME ON SO WE'LL DO THAT AND THEN AS I MENTIONED MARK'S GOING TO MARK'S GOING TO TELL YOU HOW GET THIS WHOLE FROM AN ADOPTION STANDPOINT EXECUTION INCLUDING COMMENTS FROM THE COMMUNITY AND AND PEOPLE QUESTIONS ABOUT THE AGENDA ABOUT THE THE APPROACH FOR THE WORK SESSION TODAY GOALS SO WE STARTED WAY BACK IN FEBRUARY WE YOU ALL WILL REMEMBER WE SPENT A CONSIDERABLE OF TIME IN THE ROOM TOGETHER BUT EVEN BEFORE THAT WORKING WITH THE LEADERSHIP TEAM AT THE TOWN TO UNDERSTAND HOW WE GOT TO WHERE WE WERE THEN UNDERSTAND WITH THE THOUGHTS AROUND THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AND ITS DIRECTION WERE UNDERSTAND WHERE CITY OR TOWN COUNCIL BOTH AS A BODY AND AS INDIVIDUALS WERE IN TERMS OF THE PROGRESS THAT THE TOWN HAD BEEN MAKING ON ON ITEMS AND WE USED ALL THAT TO STRUCTURE I THINK A REALLY PRODUCTIVE PLANNING WORKSHOP BACK IN BACK IN FEBRUARY WE SPENT BETTER PART OF THE SPRING PUTTING TOGETHER THIS PLAN IN ANTICIPATION OF AND I APPRECIATE MARK'S MARK'S COMMENTS BUT I'LL TELL YOU YOUR TEAM IN THE BUNKER THE WORK ON ON FORMATTING THIS FORMATTING PLAN AND REALLY PUTTING ME TO THE BONES THAT FROM FROM THE CONTENT ITSELF AND MAKING SURE THAT ALIGNED CLEARLY WITH WHAT THEY UNDERSTOOD YOUR EXPECTATIONS TO BE AND WHAT THEY UNDERSTOOD THE PLANNING FOUNDATIONS TO BE BUSINESS DOCUMENT AND MAKE IT SOMETHING THAT THE COMMUNITY COULD CONNECT WITH AND THAT COUNCIL COULD AND SO FROM HERE WE'LL GET TO OUR PRIORITIZATION TODAY LOOK AT ADOPTION LATER THIS SUMMER AND THEN SPEND THE NEXT THREE YEARS TURNING THIS VISION INTO REALITY RIGHT. 
          AND SO WE ARE RIGHT ON TRACK WITH WHERE WE HAD HOPED WE WOULD BY THIS TIME. 
          AND SO TODAY WILL BE JUST OUR SPRINGBOARD ONTO THE NEXT CHAPTER. 
          SO A QUICK SECOND TO REALIGN OURSELVES ON ON VISION MISSION THE TOWN SPENT A TREMENDOUS AMOUNT OF TIME CRAFTING A COMPREHENSIVE PLAN THAT LAID OUT A CLEAR VISION FOR THE COMMUNITY. WHAT DOES HILTON HEAD LOOK LIKE ? WHAT'S THE IDEAL CONDITION OF THE TOWN OF HILTON HEAD 20 YEARS FROM TODAY IF WE EXECUTE ON PLANS OUR MISSION IS HOW WE'RE GOING TO GET THERE. WE'RE GOING TO BEHAVE AS A COMMUNITY COUNCIL, AS A TEAM. WHAT ARE WE GOING TO RALLY AROUND TO TO MOVE THIS PLAN 
          [00:15:05]
FORWARD ALSO ARE THOSE MILEPOSTS RIGHT. WE'LL KNOW WE'RE DOING THE RIGHT THINGS IF THESE IF THESE ITEMS COME TO FRUITION RIGHT, WHAT SHOULD WE BE DOING TO ACCOMPLISH THE VISION? WHAT ARE OUR MILEPOSTS STRATEGIES ARE HOW RIGHT BIG CHUNKY AREAS OF OF OUR EFFORT THAT IF WE AGAIN IF WE EXECUTE ON THEM STRATEGIES ARE BIG PICTURE CONVERSATIONS AND WE'LL ABOUT THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN STRATEGIC IMPACTFUL AND EVEN IN THE PLAN TODAY IN THE PRESENTATION TODAY THAT WE GIVE YOU WE CAN SEE OUT ON THAT ALL THE WAY UP UNTIL LAST EVENING WHERE SOMEBODY SAID WAIT A SECOND THIS LOOKS LIKE IN LIKE AN OPERATIONAL ITEM. WHY IS IT SITTING HERE AT A STRATEGY LEVEL? SO I TO BE VERY THOUGHTFUL THAT AND THE TOWN LEADERSHIP HISTORY FROM A STRATEGIC VANTAGE TACTICS ARE SPECIFIC ACTIONS AND THAT'S THE BULK OF WHAT WE'RE GOING TO SPEND OUR TIME ON TODAY JUST BECAUSE IN LARGE PART TOWN COUNCIL GETS TO WEIGH IN ON THIS AND WE EVERY SO OFTEN RIGHT YOU TURN IT OVER TO YOUR TEAM AND THEY START EXECUTING ARE YOU ACCOUNTABLE THAT AND SO WE WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT FROM AN ACTION ORIENTED OCEAN WE'VE GOT THE RIGHT THINGS AND FOLLOW ALL THAT AND WE'RE ACHIEVING THAT HOW ALL THESE THINGS TALK TO EACH OTHER YOU'LL REMEMBER THIS GRAPHIC THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN 20 YEAR BIG PICTURE WHERE IS THE TOWN GOING HAVE THE COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT ONE OF THE HALLMARKS OF THE TOWN OF HILTON HEADS HILTON OUT OF HILTON HEAD ISLANDS COMPREHENSIVE PLAN WAS THE LAYERS AND LAYERS AND LAYERS OF OPPORTUNITY FOR THE TWO AND THAT'S WHY IT WAS SO CRITICAL AND MARK KEPT KICKING US TO HOW DOES THIS TIE BACK TO THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN? HOW DOES THIS BACK TO WHAT THE COMMUNITY ASKED US TO DO A COMPREHENSIVE PLAN INFORMS OUR STRATEGIC PLAN. 
          WE'RE FOLLOWING YOUR BUDGET PROCESS, WATCHING HOW THE STUFF WE TALKED ABOUT BACK IN FEBRUARY CONNECTS WITH THE STUFF YOU WERE TALKING ABOUT AT BUDGET TIME. 
          AND EVEN THOUGH THE ORDER OF OPERATIONS IN TERMS OF A FINAL PLAN CAME AFTER THE BUDGET, WE LOVE THE FACT THAT YOU USED THE WORK THAT YOU DID IN FEBRUARY AND THE WORK THAT WAS GOING ON ALL SPRING TO SHAPE YOUR SPENDING AND THE STRATEGIC PLAN DRIVES THE BUDGET. THE BUDGET THE STRATEGIC PLAN. RIGHT. 
          WE CAN'T GET ANYWHERE UNLESS YOU ALLOCATE FUNDING AND RESOURCES AND STRATEGIC MANAGEMENT FROM A TEAM PERSPECTIVE FROM A FROM A STAFF PERSPECTIVE EXECUTING ON THE ON THE COUNCIL'S DIRECTION AND STRATEGIC MANAGEMENT FROM ACCOUNTABILITY PERSPECTIVE THAT'S YOUR ROLE IS TO HOLD THAT TEAM ACCOUNTABLE. WE SAID WE WERE GOING TO DO THIS. WE SAID WE WERE GOING TO MOVE THIS DIRECTION AND ARE WE OR ARE WE IN ARE WE MOVING FAST? I'LL KNOW THIS COMES FROM THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN. 
          WE DIDN'T TOUCH ONE WORD OF IT AND WE SHOULDN'T UNTIL WE SIT DOWN AND HAVE A BIGGER CONVERSATION. BUT WE THINK IT CAPTURES EFFECTIVELY WHAT THE COMMUNITY ASK AND THINKING ABOUT SUSTAINABILITY AND THE PLAN ITSELF TAKES DEEP AT WHAT SUSTAINABILITY REALLY MEANS AN ENVIRONMENTAL MONIKER THERE CERTAINLY. 
          BUT THERE'S ALSO SOCIAL CONNECTEDNESS AND FINANCIAL RESPONSIBILITY THAT ALL GO INTO IDOLIZATION AND MODERNIZATION AND BUILDING AN INCLUSIVE EARTH FROM A MISSION STANDPOINT PROMOTING THE HEALTH AND VITALITY OF THE COMMUNITY WE SERVE RIGHT ETHICAL INCLUSIVE PROGRAMS, POLICIES AND ACTIONS THAT'S HOW YOU'RE GOING TO ACHIEVE YOUR BELIEFS SO STRAIGHT FROM THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AND HEAVILY INFORMING IF NOT DIRECTING THE ROOT OF THIS AND I THINK MARK HAS SOME THAT HEROIC BLACK MAN MAYOR AND COUNCIL I THINK AT SOME POINT IN A IF NOT TODAY WELL MAYBE FEW MINUTES TODAY STARTED I'M YOU ARE BUT COLLECTIVELY START ABSORBING AND ON THE VISION AND VISION MISSION STATEMENT THOSE ARE STATEMENTS THAT HAVE BEEN PREPARED OVER TIME THEY'VE BEEN PREPARED BY OTHERS I DON'T WANT TO SPEND HALF A DAY TALKING VISION AND MISSION BUT A LOT OF THE WORK WE TRY TO DO HAS TO ALIGN WITH OUR VISION AND MISSION STATEMENT SO I DON'T KNOW HOW TO GET THROUGH THOSE TWO DOCUMENTS WE'VE TAKEN REALLY ONE OUT OF THE COMPREHENSIVE WE'VE TAKEN ONE OVER TIME. 
          I JUST DO THINK THAT AT SOME POINT MAYOR AND TOWN COUNCIL MEMBERS EXAMINE THAT COLLECTIVELY AND TOGETHER AND MAYBE DECIDE THAT IT'S SOMETHING WE NEED TO LOOK AT AND MAYBE WE LOOK AT THAT COME JANUARY WHEN WE'RE BACK TOGETHER BUT I DO THINK THAT IT'S IT'S IMPORTANT TO EXAMINE THOSE OVER TIME I'M NOT SAYING THROW IT OUT I'M NOT SAYING 
          [00:20:02]
KEEP IT I'M SAYING MAYBE THERE'S SOME ADJUSTMENT THE STATEMENTS THAT ALIGN WITH YOUR STRATEGIC PLAN OVER TIME THAT'S AND MAY I ADD TO THAT A LITTLE BIT THE THROUGHOUT THE DOCUMENT THE BINDER THAT WE HAVE IT REFERS ALMOST ON EVERY PAGE BACK TO AND AND WE'VE HEARD THIS MORNING A LOT HOW THIS IS DRIVEN BY THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AND IT'S ACKNOWLEDGED IN HERE IN THE BEGINNING OF THE BINDER AND AGAIN IN THE CONCLUSION OF THE COMMENTS THAT WE ARE AT A POINT TO 20, 25, FIVE YEARS AND THAT WE OUGHT TO BE REVIEWING NOT JUST THE MISSION AND VISION BUT WE OUGHT TO BE WORKING CURRENTLY ON THE REVISION AS TO THAT COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AND THAT ISN'T IN HERE ANYWHERE IN TERMS OF AN IRONY OR A GOAL BUT, I THINK THAT I'M GOING TO SUGGEST THAT WE DO BECAUSE THINGS BECAUSE IT'S THE RIGHT TIMING. 
          WE'RE AT THE POINT WHERE THAT'S IMPORTANT TO DO AND EVERYTHING THAT WE'RE DOING HERE IS DRIVEN BY THAT COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AND IF COMPREHENSIVE PLAN IS AT THE POINT WHERE IT NEEDS TO BE LOOKED AT AND REVISED, SOME OF WHAT WE'RE PLANNING FOR IS ALREADY OLD AND I THINK THIS IS IMPORTANT WHAT WE'RE DOING. BUT I THINK THAT THE IDEA THAT IT'S GOING TO DRIVE THE NEXT THREE YEARS YOU SHOULD NOT BE COUNTED ON IS NOT ACCURATE IT'S NOT INDICATIVE WHERE THE COMMUNITY IS TODAY AND SO I WANTED MAKE SURE THAT I WAS REALLY CLEAR AND BEING HEARD WITH THAT GOING TO BE MY FIRST STATEMENT WHEN I GOT TO SPEAK AND MARK YOU GAVE ME OPENING AND SO I'M GOING TO LAY IT OUT THERE THAT THIS COMPREHENSIVE PLAN SHOULD BE CURRENTLY ACTIVELY BEING WORKED ON. SO THE ONE ON 1.10 WE WILL GET THERE UPDATE THE FIVE YEAR ASSESSMENT AND UPDATE OF THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN IT IN THERE THAT IS IMPORTANT WORK TO DO IS NOT IMMEDIATE BECAUSE OF THE ALAMO AND BECAUSE OF SOME OF THE OTHER WE'RE DOING BUT IT IS IN IT IS IN THERE MA'AM I THINK IF WE'RE TALKING I DON'T WANT TO DO THIS IF IT'S INAPPROPRIATE BUT I THINK IF WE'RE TALKING ABOUT THE ALAMO AND WE'RE TALKING ABOUT ALL OF THOSE ELEMENTS THAT ARE BASED ON THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN, WE OUGHT TO BE SIMULTANEOUSLY ABOUT THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN BECAUSE WE'RE GOING TO REWRITE THE ALAMO. WE'RE GOING TO DO ALL OF THESE THINGS AND THEN WE'RE GOING TO LOOK AT THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN WHICH IS LIKELY TO HAVE SOME CHANGES TO IT. 
          AND SO WHERE DOES THAT LEAVE US KIND OF DISJOINTED IN MY OPINION BUT YOU'RE RIGHT IT IS IN THERE TO DO THAT I JUST THINK IT OUGHT TO BE AN ACTIVELY ENGAGED ACTIVITY CURRENT TO EVERYTHING ELSE THAT WE'RE DOING AND NOT AFTER THE FACT. 
          WHAT I WOULD SUGGEST IS THAT AS WE GO THROUGH THIS TODAY WE MIGHT IDENTIFY SOME OF THOSE ITEMS THAT NEED TO BE PART OF THAT DISCUSSION OR HIGHLIGHTED ESPECIALLY WHEN WE COME BACK AND DO THAT REVIEW. YEAH, GOOD POINT AND I THINK THIS IS CRITICAL FOR US AND IS YOUR ON AND OFF POINT AND OUR VALUES AND THESE ARE VERY HEAVILY REFLECTIVE I THINK OF COURSE OF COURSE THAT'S BUT I ALWAYS LOVE WHEN THESE THINGS LINE UP THE WAY THEY SHOULD UP ACTED COMMUNITY CONNECTED IN LOTS OF DIFFERENT WAYS WE TALKED ABOUT CERTAINLY PHYSICALLY CONNECTED THROUGH RAILS AND AND STREETS AND HIGHWAYS BUT SOCIALLY CONNECTED MAKING SURE THAT WE ARE AN ISLAND TO NEIGHBORS OUR MENTAL SUSTAINABILITY AGAIN WE RECOGNIZE THAT ON HILTON HEAD ISLAND ARE ONE OF OUR MOST SIGNIFICANT ASSETS IS OUR NATURAL SETTING AND MAKE SURE THAT WE HAVE AN ACTIVE MAP OF FOCUS WE ARE HERE IN THE LOWCOUNTRY WE'RE HERE IN BEAUFORT COUNTY. HOW DO WE WORK WITH OUR NEIGHBORS? HOW DO WE WORK WITH THE REGION TO MAKE SURE THAT WHAT THEY'RE DOING IS REFLECTIVE OF OUR VISION? MOST IMPORTANTLY AND THAT WHAT WE'RE DOING FITS INTO AN OVERALL STRATEGY FOR THE REGION, AN INCLUSIVE COMMUNITY . I LIKE THE WORDS MULTIDIMENSIONAL IN THERE WE TALKED LOT AT THE LAST SESSION ABOUT THE FACT THAT OVER TIME HILTON HEAD HAS BECOME AN OLDER AND HOW DO WE MAKE SURE THAT FROM A MULTI DIMENSIONAL STANDPOINT NOT THAT 
          [00:25:02]
GENERATIONAL ISLANDERS SEE AN OPPORTUNITY TO STAY AND GROW AND THAT BASICALLY EVERYBODY WANTS THAT PART OF HILTON HEAD COMMUNITY AS BITE SIZED INFRASTRUCTURE I, I LOVE THIS TERM FROM A STANDPOINT OF IT'S A IT'S A BIG PLACE DOESN'T FEEL THAT WAY ALL THE TIME BUT WHEN YOU START LOOKING UNDERGROUND AT THE PIPES AND AND WORK AROUND THAT THE STREETS AND BRIDGES WE CAN'T WE CAN'T SPEND ALL THE MONEY THAT NEEDS BE SPENT TO REPLACE EVERYTHING THAT'S THERE TOO ARE GOING TO GET SMARTER ABOUT THAT. HOW ARE WE GOING TO DIRECT INFRASTRUCTURE INVESTMENT, THE PLACES WE WANT TO GROW? HOW ARE WE GOING TO REDIRECT INFRASTRUCTURE INVESTMENT FROM THE PLACE THAT WE WANT TO PRESERVE RIGHT. 
          SO WE NEED TO BE THERE ARE PARKS AND RECREATION THE KIND OF QUALITY OF LIFE AMENITIES THAT CONTINUE MAKE US A DESTINATION FOR THE PURSUIT OF EXCELLENCE. 
          THIS IS AN AMAZING TO LIVE AND IT SHOULD AND SO NOT GOING TO OCCUR BY SITTING YOUR HANDS OR DOING WHAT YOU DID YESTERDAY ALWAYS IT MEANS CONSTANTLY LOOKING THAT'S IDEALIZING OUR ECONOMY, MODERNIZING HOUSING THE ECONOMY. HEATHER AND I HAD A GREAT CONVERSATION THIS MORNING JUST ABOUT WHAT WOULD HELP ENHANCE ASSETS ARE FOR THE FOR THE NEXT GENERATION OF ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT HOW THAT DIFFERS FROM WHAT MANY OTHER COMMUNITIES ARE HOW DO WE CAPITALIZE ON THOSE ASSETS NOW WE I'M GOING TO JUMP IN ON THIS ONE AND YOU KNOW, AS WE THINK ABOUT THESE AS AND YOU JUST SEE THE WORDS PARK AND RECREATION THAT DOESN'T BRING AS A VALUE. IT'S A THEME. AND SO I THINK AS WE LOOK AT UPDATING WE SHOULD THINK ABOUT UPDATING WHAT THAT IS YOU COULD ALMOST INCLUDE THAT IN CONNECTED COMMUNITY BUT I ALSO TOOK AN OPPORTUNITY TO JUST LAY OUT A OF THINGS TO THINK ABOUT ENHANCE COMMUNITY WELL-BEING THROUGH OUR STRATEGIC INVESTMENTS IN PARKS AND RECREATION, FOSTER A THRIVING CONNECTED COMMUNITY BY INVESTING IN RECREATION, INFRASTRUCTURE AND GREEN SPACES. SO I THINK WE CAN DO A BETTER JOB KIND OF DESCRIBING AND YOU DID IT YOURSELF AS YOU TALKED ABOUT WHAT PARKS RECREATION WISE. SO I THINK THERE'S AN OPPORTUNITY THERE TO KIND A THAT ALEX AND BRING THAT YOU KNOW VISION IS THIS FAR OFF THING RIGHT IT'S IT'S 1520 YEARS IN THE MAKING TACTICAL ITEMS ACTION ITEMS ARE RIGHT NOW THE THINGS WE'RE GOING TO DO TODAY AND TOMORROW CORE VALUES ARE HOW WE FILTER NEW IDEAS RIGHT SO I ALWAYS TELL COMMUNITIES WHEN YOU ADOPT A COMPREHENSIVE YOU'RE GOING TO SPEND A YEAR OR MORE CRAFTING THIS AMAZING FOUNDATIONAL DOCUMENT YOU'RE GOING TO THINK THROUGH. 
          I PROMISE YOU WITH MARK YOU'RE GOING TO REITERATE AND REITERATE AND REITERATE YOU'RE GOING TO BE ENGAGING ACROSS THE FESTIVAL AND THEN STOPPED IT AND THEN A PROBABLY AT THE SAME MEETING WHERE YOU ADOPT IT SOMEBODY IS GOING TO WALK UP TO THE PODIUM AN IDEA THAT IS NOT IN THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN. I LOVE DISCIPLINE. I LOVE THE IDEA OF BEING JUST A DISCIPLINED COUNCIL AND WE'RE JUST GOING TO EXECUTE ON WHAT'S IN THE PLAN. 
          BUT THAT'S NOT REALISTIC NOT REALISTIC OVER TIME. AND SO WHAT THESE VALUES ENABLE YOU TO DO IF THERE ARE IF THEY'RE WELL CRAFTED AND THEY SAY WELL IS THIS A FILTER? SO SOMEBODY COMES AND WE USE THE EXAMPLE LAST TIME WE WERE TOGETHER SOMEBODY COMES UP AND THEY WANT TO BUILD A ROLLER AT POLYGAMY CLASS OUR COLLECTIVE PLAZA AND EVEN BETTER THEY WANT YOU TO BUILD ROLLER COASTER. YOU GOT RUN IT THROUGH THIS AND ASK LOT ABOUT THAT WE'RE ABOUT APPRECIATE THAT AND THESE ARE THE BIG THINGS BY THE WAY GETTING THESE RIGHT IS CRITICAL COMMENT IS GOING TO I WAS TWEETING WHEN THE MATTER WAS GOING THROUGH THE READ REVITALIZE PIECE AND I WAS I THOUGHT THIS TUNNEL GOING TO TOUCH ON IT BUT I THINK YOU TALKED ABOUT SORT OF HIGHLIGHTING OUR ASSETS WHEN WE TALK ABOUT REVITALIZE SECTION OF THE ECONOMY. BUT I THINK WE ALSO HAVE TO HAVE THE OTHER SIDE OF THE CONVERSATION WHICH IS WHAT ARE OUR GAPS IF? WE'RE TRYING TO ATTRACT BUSINESS IF WE'RE TRYING TO RETAIN BUSINESS, I THINK THAT'S IMPORTANT FOR TO HAVE A DISCUSSION ABOUT WE'RE TRYING TO STAY TRUE TO THESE CORE VALUES 100% AND TO ASPIRE ON 
          [00:30:07]
THAT PAGE PURSUIT OF EXCELLENCE . I'VE ALWAYS FELT THAT THAT NEED TO BE HIGHER UP THE ORDER CLOSER TO VISION. OUR MISSION IS FOR VALUE BUT I THINK THAT NEEDS TO BE HIGHER UP IN THE LEVEL EVERYTHING WE DO SHOULD BE IN SOMETHING AND I JUST WANTED TO AGREE WITH THAT STATEMENT AND I DIDN'T THAT THESE WERE TO BE RANKED BUT IF YOU WERE LOOK AT MY PAPER YOU WOULD SAY SEE THAT IT SAYS NUMBER ONE WITH A BIG STAR AND AN ASTERISK. YES. AND ALWAYS SO IN COMPLETE AGREEMENT AND EVERYTHING WE SHOULD DO AND SHOULD BE PART OF OUR IT SHOULD JUST THE STATEMENT OF IN PURSUIT OF EXCELLENCE IN EVERYTHING. SO THANK YOU FOR THAT COMMENT PATSY AND I AGREE. WELL I JUST REITERATE ALL GREAT COMMENTS. 
          WE'RE TAKING GOOD NOTES THESE COME FROM PULLED STRAIGHT OUT OF THE STRATEGIC OR EXCUSE ME THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN THEY AREN'T RANKED BUT YOUR GREAT POINTS WE WILL PUT PURSUIT OF EXCELLENCE THE VERY TOP BECAUSE IT IS DRIVING EVERYTHING WE'RE DOING SO SOME VERY GOOD KEY POINTS I JUST WANT TO SAY THANKS ALSO SAY WITH THAT SAME SPIRIT RIGHT WE DON'T TYPICALLY THINK OF THEM AS RANKED BUT WE ALSO COME AT IT FROM A STANDPOINT OF DO NO HARM. RIGHT. SO IT'S VERY HARD TO DO ALL EIGHT OF THESE AT ONCE ALL THE TIME. IT'S LIKE DRIVING FROM HERE BEAUFORT WITH YOUR FOOT ON THE GAS THE ENTIRE TIME AND HOPING YOUR CAR MAKES IT BASICALLY FROM STANDPOINT OF REVITALIZE YOUR ECONOMY SHOULD NOT BE DONE AT THE EXPENSE OF OUR STRONG BASE OF PARKS AND RECREATION QUALITY OF LIFE AMENITIES, RIGHT? LOTS OF GREAT LAND THERE'S JUST MANY PLAYGROUNDS ON IT. LET'S THROW SOME BUILDINGS UP THERE AND MARKET THEM RIGHT SO NOT NOT EXPENSING ONE TO THE BENEFIT OF THE OTHER IS A WAY TO THINK THEM. BUT I AGREE 100% THAT EXCELLENCE IS THE WAY YOU GET BACK TO STRATEGIC AND THIS THIS RUB UP AGAINST A LITTLE BIT TODAY JUST BECAUSE THE FOCUS OF TODAY IS COMING TO CONSENSUS ON A LOT OF ITEMS WE'RE GONNA SPEND A LOT MORE TIME TODAY IN PRACTICAL BUT ALWAYS ASKING OURSELVES HOW DOES THE TACTICAL COME BACK TO THE STRATEGIC OR ALIGN WITH THE STRATEGIC WHEN WE ASK OURSELVES WHAT'S STRATEGIC WE ASK DOES IT ALIGN AND ACCELERATE US TOWARD OUR VISION? DOES IT DO THAT THAN ANYTHING ELSE SOMETHING THAT WE SHOULD BE DOING INSTEAD OF ANALYTIC RIGHT CATALYTIC MEANS KNOCK OVER THIS DOMINO AND IT'S GOING TO KNOCK OVER TEN MORE DOMINOES, RIGHT? INDIVIDUAL SUCCESSES FUN BUT THEY'RE NOT AS EXCITING AS CATTLE AS CATALYTIC SUCCESSES. 
          RIGHT? THEY'RE INTENTIONAL. RIGHT. 
          WE'RE LOOKING AT OUR CURRENT ENVIRONMENT. THAT'S WHAT'S CHALLENGING ABOUT EXECUTING ON A COMPREHENSIVE OR STRATEGIC PLAN THAT OUR CURRENT ENVIRONMENT MOVES AROUND, THINGS HAPPEN AND WE HAVE TO BE NIMBLE BUT NIMBLE CAN'T COME AT THE EXPENSE OF INTENTIONAL EITHER. RIGHT. WE SHOULD HAVE GOT TO MAKE A DECISION TODAY. WHAT DID YOUR MOM USED TO TELL YOU WHEN YOU WERE A KID? IF YOU NEED AN ANSWER RIGHT NOW OH AND SO WE'RE GOING TO BE INTENTIONAL. 
          WE'RE GOING TO BE THOUGHTFUL AND WE'RE ALWAYS GOING TO BE NIMBLE AND THIS MIGHT BE THE MOST IMPORTANT PART AND THE HARDEST ACCEPTING THE TERM IN EXCHANGE FOR A LONG DAY IS THE DEFINITION OR KNOWING THE SUCCESS OR FORGOING THE FUN RIGHT NOW SO THAT WE CAN HAVE THE SUCCESS LATER VERSUS OPERATIONAL AGAIN WE'RE GOING TO TODAY WE'RE GOING TO FLIRT WITH THIS BUT YOU'LL SEE THAT THE STAFF DONE A GREAT JOB OF COMBING OUT THINGS THAT THAT FELT KIND OF OPERATIONAL TO THEM. WE USED TO TALK ABOUT THIS IN TERMS OF DISCRETIONARY EFFORT. RIGHT. EVERY DAY MARK AND HIS TEAM HAVE A CHECKLIST OF MUST USE. WE GOT TO GET UP TODAY WE GOT TO MAKE SURE THINGS ARE RUNNING AS A COMMUNITY PAYROLL ASIDE TODAY SO THAT WE CAN GO AND ACT ON OUR STRATEGIC GOALS WE'RE GOING TO EXECUTE ON PAYROLL WE'RE GOING TO EXECUTE ON PUBLIC SAFETY. 
          WE'RE GOING TO EXECUTE ON PARKS AND RECREATION. WE'RE GOING TO MAKE SURE THAT WE'RE DOING NO HARM TO OUR STRATEGIC EFFORTS AND WE'RE GOING TO MAKE SURE THAT ANY 
          [00:35:05]
DISCRETIONARY EFFORT OR TIME THAT WE HAVE ARE GOING TOWARD THOSE CATALYTIC PROJECTS AND INITIATIVES. I MEAN YOU ALL KNOW THIS WE BANG THE DRUM ON IT ALL DAY, GET THE BIG THINGS RIGHT, NOT A BIG THING. THIS SPEAKS A LITTLE BIT TO JUST HOW WE GOT TO THE DOCUMENT WE'RE AT TODAY WHICH IS AT THE LAST AT THE LAST SESSION WE ASK YOU TO KIND OF AGREE TO AND BLESS A PRIORITIZATION AND AS HOW WE FILTERED IDEAS AND INITIATIVES AND THOUGHTS THAT WERE IN FRONT OF US AND HOW THAT HELPED INFORM OUR PRIORITIZATION DEFINED BY CONSENSUS TOWN COUNCIL THAT'S HOW WE GOT HERE TODAY. 
          THAT'S HOW WE'RE GOING TO LEAVE TODAY WE THE BIG PICTURE THINGS THAT YOU SEE HERE THESE TEN PRIORITY POLICY AREAS WE WE FELT LIKE WE HAD CONSENSUS ON COMING OUT OF THE LAST CONVERSATION TODAY WE'RE GOING TO YOU TO GET TO CONSENSUS ON THE ON THE TACTICAL SPECIFICALLY LISTED IN THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AGAIN THOSE AREAS WERE AREAS THAT WERE DRAWN FROM THE COMPREHENSIVE AND WE ASK YOU ALL TO FILTER BASED ON THAT ADDRESS ONE OR MORE OF OUR CORE VALUES BUT NOT NOT BANG UP AGAINST OUR CORE VALUES IN A NEGATIVE WAY IDENTIFY FUNDING AND RESOURCES WE THIS IS ACHIEVABLE FROM A FINANCIAL PERSPECTIVE ATTAINABLE WITHIN THE PLANNING HORIZON. NOW YOU'LL SEE THE WAY THE DOCUMENTS ORGANIZE. YOU HAVE SEEN THE WAY THE DOCUMENTS ORGANIZE IS. 
          WE'VE LAID OUT WHAT'S TO HAPPEN IN YEAR ONE WANTS TO HAPPEN OVER THE FIRST THREE YEARS. 
          WATCH THE HOW THIS THING FILTERS DOWN. YOU'LL SEE THAT DO PICK UP ACTION ITEMS THAT ARE GOING TO START IN YEAR AND THEN ARE GOING TO PROBABLY WILL PRESS OUT ANOTHER OR TWO BEYOND THAT AND SO ATTAINABLE WITHIN THE PLANNING HORIZON IS GOING TO VARY IN DEFINITION BUT EFFECTIVELY MEANS THE ACTION ITEM WE LISTED IN HERE WE CAN HAVE MEANINGFUL IMPACT IN THE TIME FRAME WE'VE WE'VE IDENTIFIED AND ADDRESSING IF WE'VE ADDRESSED ANY PRELIMINARY DESIGN OR FEASIBILITY WORK THAT HELPS BUMP IT UP. 
          SO IF THERE WAS A PROJECT THAT WAS STARTING FROM SCRATCH AND WE HAVEN'T REALLY THOUGHT ABOUT IT MUCH VERSUS THE PROJECT WHERE WE'VE GOT SOME PUBLIC FEEDBACK AND SOME PRELIMINARY DESIGN CONCEPTS THAT PROJECT WAS GOING TO FLOAT UP A LITTLE BIT IN THE PRIORITIZATION AND BEFORE YOU LEAVE THAT SLIDE CAN I JUMP IN ONE THING IN PREPARING FOR TODAY I LOOK BACK THROUGH A LOT OF NOTES I HAD ON PRIOR STRAT PLANS AND WORKSHOPS AND FOR SOME REASON I HAD TYPED IN HERE ARTICLE BY JEAN HARRIS WHO'S AN LPGA AND I'M GOING TO HAVE THIS IN HERE AND IT'S BECAUSE SHE WHAT SMART GOALS ARE CAN SAY SMART STRATEGY ACTION PLANS AND SO SHE SAYS AND SHE'S QUOTING FROM SOMEBODY I'M SURE SMART GOALS ARE SPECIFIC MEASURABLE LIVABLE REALISTIC AND TIME BASED AND I READ THOSE OUT TO MY HUSBAND HE SAID OH THAT'S BEEN AROUND FOR 25 YEARS AND MANAGEMENT STILL HAS THAT. I DON'T KNOW. 
          I THOUGHT IT WAS A GOOD REMINDER FROM DR. JANE THE GOLF DOCTOR AND ASKING YOU ALL TO AS WE GO THROUGH THIS TODAY TO PUT YOUR OWN LENS ON ON THIS PRIORITIZATION RUBRIC RIGHT? YES. BUT I STOLE ON THIS FROM THE ON THE GOLF DOCTOR OR TRUCKER OR SOMEBODY LIKE SO COUNCIL GAVE US SOME PLANNING DIRECTIVES TO GET THIS PLAN. 
          STARTED YOUR DIRECTIVES THROUGH INITIAL CONVERSATIONS OUR INTERVIEWS, OUR SURVEYS SAID HEY, WE WANT WE WANT TO SEE HOW THIS IS REFLECTED IN OUR FOUNDATIONAL PLANNING DOCUMENTS. WHERE ARE YOU COMING UP WITH THESE IDEAS THAT HAVE COME FROM SOMEWHERE THAT IT MUST BE PRIORITIZED? ONE OF THE CRITIQUES OF THE PRIOR STRATEGIC PLAN WAS IT WAS FANNED OUT FANNED OUT PRETTY BROADLY. 
          RIGHT. AND SO HOW CAN WE PRIORITIZE TO MAKE SURE THAT STAFF CAN FOCUS THAT THE COUNCIL CAN FOCUS AT WE'VE GOT ACTION ITEMS THAT ALIGN WITH DESIRED OUTCOMES. 
          YOU'LL SEE A PLAN YOUR STAFF HAS DEVELOPED A SET OF KEY PERFORMANCE INDICATORS OH TO SAY IF WE EXECUTE YOU ARE LIKELY TO SEE THE COMMUNITY THIS WAY AND TIE THE PLANNING HORIZON TO BUDGETS AND THAT WE PLAN PRIORITIES AND THIS IS ALMOST WHOLLY ON YOUR RIGHT THAT THE TOWN MANAGER IS GOING TO BRING BUDGET THAT LOOKS TO FUND AND ACCELERATE THE 
          [00:40:04]
STRATEGIC ACTION PLAN AND THAT COUNCIL IS MAKING THE FUNDING DECISIONS NECESSARY TO TO CREATE AND WE GOT HERE I WANT TO ADD ONE I WANT TO ADD ONE THING WE TALK A LOT ABOUT THE COMPREHEND PLAN AND ONE OF THE FIRST THINGS ANYBODY DOES AS A SENIOR LEADER ESPECIALLY SOMEBODY IN MY SHOES WHEN YOU ENTER INTO A COMMUNITY OR YOU EVEN OF GOING TO THAT COMMUNITY PLANNING DIRECTOR CANDIDATE IN HOUSE YESTERDAY THEY TALKED ABOUT THE COMP PLAN THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN IS YOUR 20 YEAR COMMUNITY PLAN PUT TOGETHER I WOULD SAY WE TALK A LOT ABOUT THE COMPREHENSIVE. I THINK THAT THERE'S SOME REALLY GOOD ELEMENTS IN RIGHT THROUGH THE CHAPTERS OF THIS THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN ARE FOR THE MOST PART PREDICATED BY THE STATE CODE . IT'S A PLANNING ENABLING LEGISLATION THAT US WHAT WE NEED TO PLAN FOR INFRASTRUCTURE PARKS AND WHATNOT WAS THE ZIP CALLED YOU PART OF OUR REINVESTMENT AND AS THE PLANNERS I USED TO BE ONE I FORGOT THAT I ONE THING THAT OUR COMPREHENSIVE PLAN DOES NOT DO YET THAT I THINK THAT WE HAVE TO START EXAMINING IS WE CAN'T GO TO THE MASTER PULL OUT OF THE MASTER DOCUMENT THE NEXT TEN BEST THINGS THAT WE SHOULD BE WORKING ON AS AN AS ISLAND RIGHT AS A AS AN ORGANIZATION AS A COMMUNITY. 
          BUT WHAT THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN LEAVES A LITTLE BIT OF THAT ACTIONABLE ON THE TABLE. 
          I THINK THAT'S WHY WE'RE SO HEAVY IN THE IN IN THE CHAPTER ONE OR THE GOAL ONE THE GROWTH MANAGEMENT SECTION AND I AND I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT WE'RE IS WHEN WE'RE SAYING WE'RE ALIGNING WITH THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN THERE'S A LOT GREAT WORK IN THERE BUT WHAT'S NOT IN THERE ARE SOME ACTIONABLE ITEMS THAT I CAN PULL OUT AND SAY WHAT'S NEXT? WHAT WHAT HAVE WE TALKED ABOUT? WHAT'S THE NEXT ROAD WATER, SEWER STORM PARKS AND REC POOL WHATEVER YOU SET A COLLIGNON ALL OF THAT ISN'T QUITE IN THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN IS THAT ACTIONABLE ITEM. SO WHAT WE'VE DONE IS WE'VE ALIGNED OUR STRATEGIC PLAN IN OUR BUDGET TO SIMPLY FOCUS ON THOSE ELEMENTS THAT ARE THAT ARE THAT MAKE UP THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN. SO I WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT WE ARE WHEN WE'RE TALKING ABOUT ALIGNMENT WE'RE NOT TALKING ABOUT LITERAL WORD FOR WORD COMING OUT OF THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN BECAUSE WE CAN'T GO BACK AS A TEAM AND FIND WHAT'S NEXT TO DO THIS IS FAIR THAT'S AN ASSESSMENT AND I THINK THAT'S THE THAT'S THE FIVE YEAR UPDATE THAT WE HAVE TO TALK ABOUT AS WE'RE LOOKING AT THIS OUT OF IT'S NOT TOO MUCH OF A TO DO LIST RIGHT NOW THOSE LOWER LEVEL ACTION ITEMS ARE GOING TO BE THE FIRST THINGS THE STEEL SO THAT'S WHERE WE WERE THINKING ABOUT A LITTLE BIT OF AN AUDIBLE THERE'S TWO WAYS TO GET AT THIS. 
          ONE WAY IS WE COULD JUST GO BY PAGE LINE BY LINE AND AND DISCUSS EVERY LINE OF THE PLAN IN CHRONOLOGICAL ORDER. THAT'S A VERY DIFFERENT WAY IS THAT WE WOULD ASK THAT IF THERE ARE PRIORITY DISCUSSION ITEMS, IF COUNCIL MEMBERS HAVE SPECIFIC AREAS OF THE PLANNING DOCUMENT AND FOR NOW WE WOULD ASK YOU TO THEM IN GOAL AREAS ONE THROUGH FIVE BUT IN GOAL AREAS THROUGH FIVE IF THERE ARE AREAS YOU WANT US TO PRIORITIZE FOR DISCUSSION THEN HAPPY TO DO THAT AND THEN COME BACK TO THE LINE BY LINE JUST TO MAKE SURE WE'RE RIGHT UNLESS THERE'S STRONG OBJECTION REFERENCE IN EITHER DIRECTION OF THE WORK TO PRIORITIZE THE DISCUSSION A BIT AND JUST MAKE SURE SOMEBODY HAS A GOAL ITEM 5.11 THAT WE DIDN'T LEAVE IT TO 1140 I THINK IT IT WELL BEFORE WE DO THAT I WOULD LIKE TO ASK MARK AND SHAWN IN LAYING THIS OUT DID YOU LAY IT OUT WITH THAT IN MIND OR IS IT JUST A HERE'S HOW WE'RE GOING TO GO THROUGH IT KIND OF A THING? SO A COUPLE OF THINGS TO TALK ABOUT AS WE GET INTO THE GOALS . WE CAME OUT OF THE WORKSHOP WITH EIGHT FROM TOWN COUNCIL SO WE'LL TALK ABOUT THE ADDITION OF NUMBER AND NUMBER TEN AS WE FLIPPED THE PAGE HERE WE WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT WE HAVE THE AND THE STRATEGY INFORMATION CORRECT. 
          [00:45:02]
ARE WE FOCUSING ON THE RIGHT IN THE RIGHT AREAS AND HOW GOING TO ADDRESS THOSE UP THE PRIORITY GOALS FROM COUNCIL AND THEN THE ITEMS I THINK IT WOULD BE GOOD TO GO THROUGH EACH THEM BECAUSE THE WAY WE'VE LAID IT OUT IS TO TRY TO SAY HERE'S WHAT WE'RE GOING TO DO TO MOVE TOWARD ACHIEVING THIS GOAL AND WHERE IT MADE SENSE. WE HAVE A CHRONOLOGY WHICH ALLOWS US TO GO FROM STEP ONE TO STEP TWO TO COMPLETE THE BODY OF WORK THAT IT TAKES TO MOVE THESE THINGS FORWARD. SO I, I THINK THAT'S HOW WE'D PREFER TO THROUGH THAT AND SEE IF THERE IS CONSENSUS FROM COUNCIL ON THE THE GOAL THE STRATEGY AND THEN HOW WE'RE GOING TO MOVE THROUGH THE EXECUTE AND AN IMPLEMENTATION TOWARD ACHIEVING THAT GOAL AND WITH THAT BEING SAID, I AGREE WITH FOLLOWING THROUGH AS IT AS IT IS IN THE BOOK BECAUSE THEY'RE ALL INTERTWINED RIGHT IN EVERY ACTION THAT OUR CLIENTS WITH ANOTHER ACTION EVEN WITH ANOTHER GOAL BUT FROM A STANDPOINT OF THE PUBLIC FOLLOWING ALONG IT MAKES IT THAT MUCH A LITTLE BIT CLEARER AND AND I LIKE THAT ASPECT OF IT AND I'M SAYING THAT THIS IS GOING TO BE PUT ON LINE AFTERWARDS. JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE WE MAKE THAT COMMON CAUSE THAT'S ALSO PEOPLE TAKING PICTURES AND IF IT'S GOING TO BE ONLINE YOU DON'T HAVE TO TAKE PICTURES. IT GO AHEAD JUMP IN HERE. ONE OF THE PIECES DISCUSSION WILL NEED TO BE THAT WE ARE AT TEN NOW WE CAME OUT OF THE MEETING WITH EIGHT AND THEN THE DOCUMENT THAT WE'RE SEEING TODAY TEN. SO THAT'S A BIG CHANGE BECAUSE I KNOW WE WERE LOOKING TO REDUCE THE NUMBER OF ITEMS THAT ARE OUR STRATEGIC PRIORITIES SO WE NEED TO HAVE A DISCUSSION ON THAT AND I ALSO THINK THERE'S AN OPPORTUNITY TO COLLAPSE SOME INTO EACH OTHER. SO JUST AN EXAMPLE WE HAVE REENFORCE ISLAND RESILIENCE AND WE HAVE INVEST IN STORMWATER MANAGEMENT INFRASTRUCTURE COULD ,MAKE THE POINT THAT INVESTING IN STORMWATER MANAGEMENT INFRASTRUCTURE IS WAY IS OUR FOCUS AREA IN OUR RESILIENCE PLAN. SO DO WE NEED TO HAVE TWO SEPARATE STRATEGY ON THAT OR IS THERE AN OPPORTUNITY TO INCLUDE THOSE TOGETHER BRING THOSE TOGETHER SO I DON'T KNOW HOW WE WANT TO DO THAT BUT YOU KNOW, WE NEED TO HAVE A CONVERSATION ABOUT THAT BECAUSE THERE WAS A CHANGE AND I THINK THERE ARE SOME OPPORTUNITIES FOR INTEGRATION BUT THE COMMENTS IS AND I AGREE WITH THAT AND IF IT'S THE PART OF THE LIST THE GOAL AT SOME LEVEL HAS BEEN TO MAKE IT MANAGEABLE AND SPECIFIC . I LIKE TO GO BACK TO THIS PAGE THAT WAS IN THE DOCUMENT THAT WE RECEIVED AND I WOULD COLLAPSE THOSE TWO I ABSOLUTELY AGREE THEY COULD BE INTEGRATED BUT I WOULD AND I WOULD REMOVE MY OPINION THE ONES THAT WERE ADDED AND I'M SURE AS WE GO PAGE BY PAGE THAT WILL BECOME MORE CLEAR TERMS OF THE REASONS WHY. BUT I'LL LEAVE IT FOR THAT RIGHT NOW IF I HAD TO PICK FIVE OF THESE AND MAKE THOSE THE TOP FIVE PRIORITIES AND SET THE COURSE IN A MUCH MORE CLEAR AND SPECIFIC WAY THAT DOESN'T STAFF NOR COUNCIL AND ACHIEVES POLICIES THAT THE COMMUNITY WILL APPRECIATE AND UNDERSTAND OR RESPECT IN THE END I KNOW THE COMMENTS I THINK I'LL JUMP HERE ALL GREAT POINTS AS WE STARTED AND MR. HUNTER MAKES A GOOD POINT AND AND OF CLOSURE WE WE TALKED TOGETHER TODAY TOWN COUNCIL SHAWN AND I TALKED TOGETHER BEFORE AND WE HAVE STRUGGLED WITH TEN GOALS WHEN WE WALKED OUT OF A STRATEGIC PLAN WORKSHOP WITH EIGHT HOWEVER THERE ARE SOME ELEMENTS OF SURPRISE FOR US WHEN WE START GETTING THROUGH THAT PARTICULAR GOAL WHERE TO PUT IT IN THE IN THE PRIORITY EIGHT THAT WE WALKED OUT OF STRATEGIC PLANNING WITH AND SO AS A TOWN MANAGER THAT'S TRYING TO HELP US TO HOWEVER MANY GOALS WE WE AGREE ON I'VE TAKEN LIBERTY AND WE'VE TALKED ABOUT THIS TO PUT THEM IN HERE ONE TO ASSESS AND ADDRESS TODAY WE ARE DOING SOME WORK IN ENVIRONMENTAL AND WE CONTINUE TO HEAR A STAFF THAT WE'RE ENVIRONMENT LIGHT WE ARE NOT ENVIRONMENT LITE WITH ALL DUE TO TOWN COUNCIL WE ARE NOT 
          [00:50:01]
ENVIRONMENT LITE SO WHAT I DON'T WANT TO DO IS WALK IN THE ROOM TODAY AND THEN SHOW BACK ON JULY 16TH AND HEAR AND YOU AND THE COMMUNITY UNDERSTAND THAT WE'RE ENVIRONMENT LIGHT AND SO WHERE DOES ENVIRONMENT SIT UNDER HERE RESILIENCE THIS STORMWATER ENVIRONMENT I THINK THAT WHEN WE START THROUGH THOSE ACTION ITEMS THAT WE ARE GOING TO BE ABLE TO BETTER THINK ABOUT IT SO THAT I THINK IT'S REALLY IMPORTANT WE GO THROUGH EACH GOAL THAT WE EXPLAIN TO YOU WHAT THAT GOAL MEANS AND DOVE INTO THOSE ACTION ITEMS BECAUSE. 
          THE SOONER YOU CAN PRIORITIZE THE GOALS RIGHT? IF I MEET SOMEONE AND THEY SAY HEY HOW MANY WHAT'S THE TOWN DO ? DO I READ THE TEN GOALS OR THE EIGHT GOALS OR THE SEVEN GOALS IS THAT IS THAT'S IMPORTANT TO US. 
          WHAT'S ALSO IMPORTANT ARE THOSE THOSE ACTION ITEMS THE THE THE TACTICS SO TO SPEAK BUT REAL ACTION ITEMS THAT WHEN WE LEAVE HERE WE'RE GOING TO PARE OUT ON COMMITTEE ONE, COMMITTEE TWO OR COMMITTEE 2.5 AND WE'RE GOING TO PRIORITIZE THAT BY THROUGH COMMITTEE THROUGH COUNCIL BY RESOLUTION COUNCIL BY ORDINANCE OR ALIGNING OUR CAPITAL PROGRAM POLICY PROJECT. 
          THAT'S WHAT THIS IS GOING TO DRIVE WHEN ALL IS AND DONE. AND SO I THINK WE'VE JUST GOT TO BECAUSE I THINK IF WE GET THROUGH ONE WE'LL FIND SOME TEMPO AND SOME MOMENTUM BECAUSE GOAL ONE'S IMPORTANT. I THINK THAT THERE'S A LOT OF ALIGNMENT ON GOAL ONE. 
          I THINK THAT'S STILL OUR NUMBER ONE GOAL AND OUR HEAVIEST LIFT . 
          I THINK THAT THROUGH AS WE WORK THE OTHER ACTION ITEMS TODAY I WOULD LOVE TO WALK AWAY WITH LESS THAN TEN FRANKLY WE JUST DIDN'T KNOW HOW TO DO THAT BY OURSELVES WITHOUT YOU ALL HELPING. YEAH AND THANK YOU FOR SAYING AND I ALSO ENCOURAGE YOU IN THE TO CHIME IN AS WE GO THROUGH BECAUSE YOU'VE GOT AN INNER WORKINGS OF THIS MORE SO THAN ALL OF US INDIVIDUALLY. BUT ALSO I THINK THAT AS WE GO THROUGH IT WE NEED TO AT SOME OF THOSE ACTION ITEMS THAT ARE BEING TALKED ABOUT WITHIN DIFFERENT GROUPS AND HOW THEY WITH OTHER PRIORITIES AND LET THAT HELP DRIVE US TO HOW WE COMBINE SOME OF THESE PRIORITIES TO MAKE CERTAIN THAT IT'S ALL BEING COVERED OF THAT WHERE THAT IS WHERE THE TELLTALE SIGNS YEAH I'M GOING ON THAT I KNOW ALSO THAT MR. HUNTER STARTED OUT WITH THAT AS ALSO SAID WE HAD 15 BEFORE THAT WE HAD EVEN MORE AND THEN WE ALL THESE ACTION STEPS UNDERNEATH THERE I DON'T KNOW HOW ANYONE WOULD EVER DO ANY OF THAT. 
          SO YOU KNOW YES GROWING FROM 8 TO 10 BUT THERE'S A REASON FOR IT AND I LISTENED CAREFULLY TO OUR QUORUM MEETINGS OF TOWN COUNCIL SEPARATELY SO THAT RATE THE WAY I SEE IT AND I'LL OWN IT I SAY LIGHT I WILL OWN IT OUR TRIBUTE MR. TO SAY THINK THAT IN A PREVIOUS PLANNED THE FACT THAT WE'RE DOING MORE IS NOT EVIDENCE IT'S NOT BEEN A PART OF OUR STRATEGY SO THE WAY I SEE IT IS YOU SHOULD FOCUS ON THE ENVIRONMENT AS PART OF THE COMP PLAN AND THEN UNDERNEATH IS RESILIENCE PLAN AND UNDERNEATH THAT IS AS ISLANDWIDE STORMWATER SYSTEM WHICH IS PART OF YOUR RESILIENCE. SO I WOULD AS WE GO THROUGH THIS THAT'S SOMETHING THAT I HAVE THOUGHT ABOUT NOT SAY THAT THAT'S WHAT WE SHOULD DO IMMEDIATELY GO BACK ON ACTION STEP BY ACTION STEP LET'S SEE WHERE WE END UP AND WHAT I ASKED TO YOU KNOW WE'VE GOT TEN ITEMS IS IT THE TITLES THAT NEED TO CHANGE TO INCORPORATE THOSE OTHER GOALS THAT FALL WITHIN THAT SAME CATEGORY ALEX TURNING ON HIS HEAD A LITTLE BIT BECAUSE I APPRECIATE THE LENS THEY WILL LOOK BUT I ALSO WANT TO OFFER THAT WHEN WE START TO LOOK AT THE ACTION ITEMS THAT ARE 2627 HAS REALLY WHERE INFERENCE IS GOING TO BE MADE RIGHT? SO SOME OF THESE ITEMS WE'RE SAYING WE'RE JUST GOING TO GO LIVE THIS YEAR SOME. WE'RE ALREADY SAYING THAT IT'S GOING TO TAKE US THREE YEARS OR MORE BECAUSE THEY WILL BE ONGOING. OKAY. 
          SO I JUST SORT OF CAUTION US JUST A LITTLE BIT ABOUT TAKING SOMETHING OFF, OKAY. 
          BECAUSE THIS IS A THREE YEAR PLAN NEXT YEAR THAT COULD BE A CHANGE OF COUNSEL. 
          SO IN ORDER TO KEEP THE STAFF MOVING IN A DIRECTION I THINK IS IMPORTANT THAT THINGS ARE LAID OUT EVEN FOR DISCUSSION PURPOSES LATE ON OKAY AS WE REEVALUATE NEXT YEAR HOPEFULLY 
          [00:55:02]
SOME THINGS WILL FALL OFF BUT THE REALITY IS SOME WILL NOT BECAUSE THEY ARE ONGOING SO I JUST OFFER THAT IS SORT OF A CONTRARY TO THE DISCUSSION THAT WE HAVE JUST FOR DISCUSSION THAT MAKES SENSE. CHANG WAS TO ME THAT WE HAVE TEN GOALS WITH FIVE ACTION ITEMS EACH THE WE FIVE GOALS WITH TEN ACTION ITEMS EACH IS STILL 50. 
          WHAT I REALLY THINK THAT THIS IS HELPING US REALIZE ARE THAT THOSE ACTION ITEMS ARE WHAT WE SHOULD AND WILL FOCUS ON. SO MY MY SUGGESTION RIGHT NOW IS LET'S JUST ABSORB WHATEVER'S UP THERE AND THEN OVER THE PERIOD OF THE NEXT SEVERAL HOURS I'M TO TAKE A BREAK FOR LUNCH AS WELL. LET'S START ABSORBING WHERE THERE MIGHT BE WHERE THERE ARE OPPORTUNITIES TO CONSOLIDATE AND AND BY THE TIME THE DAY IS OVER WE WOULD HAVE GOTTEN THROUGH ALL THE GOALS ALL THE ACTION ITEMS AND WE CAN PRIORITIZE THE GOAL WE CAN PRIORITIZE THE FISCAL AND THEN WE CAN LOOK FOR WAYS WE CAN CONSOLIDATE BECAUSE WE ARE VERY OPEN TO CONSOLIDATION. WE'RE TRYING NOT TO TAKE LIBERTY FROM THE FIRST EIGHT GOALS THAT WE CAME OUT THAT TWO DAY WORKSHOP SPECIFIED BY YOU GREEN DOT BLUE DOT WHATEVER IT SAID WE'RE TRYING NOT TO REWRITE THAT FOR YOU WITHOUT YOUR INPUT IS WANT TO HIGHLIGHT THAT WE HAVE DONE A LOT OF THE SEVEN YEARS THAT I'VE BEEN HERE AS WE SPEND THE LAST COUPLE OF YEARS OR THERE'S BEEN A LOT OF WORK DONE THERE NO QUESTION THAT WE HAVE ACCOMPLISHED A LOT AND HELPED THAT AND WE CONTINUE TO BE ACTIVE AND ENGAGED IN OUR STAFF IS REMARKABLE IN IMPLEMENTING PRIORITIES AND REQUESTS OF THIS TOWN COUNCIL AND SO I DON'T WANT IT TO BE PUSHED ASIDE WHEN YOU DOWN AND AS I'M SURE WE WILL AS WE'RE WALKING THROUGH THESE THIS TOWN AND PREVIOUS TOWN COUNCIL SINCE I'VE BEEN HERE HAVE ABSOLUTELY ACCOMPLISHED A LOT OF THINGS AND AND I'M PROUD OF THE WORK WE'VE AND JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT'S CLEAR I WILL YOU YOU'RE LOOKING BACK AT YOU KNOW WE SPENT THE BETTER PART OF DAY ONE AND OUR AT OUR LAST SESSION TOGETHER WITH MARK AND THE TEAM UPDATING THE PROGRESS THAT YOU'VE MADE JUST ON THE LAST STRATEGIC PLAN IT IS STAGGERING TO SEE THE AMOUNT OF WORK THAT WE THE TEAM COUNCIL YOU ARE YOU ARE ON AND I APPRECIATE THAT. I'M GOING TO SHIFT A LITTLE I DO LIKE THE IDEA OF YOU'VE HAD THIS HOUR YOU'RE ABSORBING IT NOW. OH SORRY I'M JUST GOING TO FOR THE WHILE HE'S DOING THAT ONE THING I ALSO SAY IS I JUST HAD A THOUGHT THAT MAYBE THE KPIS NEED TO BE SOME OF THOSE DIRECTIVES AS TO HOW WE COMBINE A LITTLE BIT BECAUSE WHAT ARE THE OUTCOMES WHAT ARE THOSE INDICATORS AS TO WHAT WHAT NEEDS TO BE ACCOMPLISHED AND THAT WILL HELP US HELPFUL AS SOME ARE YOU PRESENTING IS IN ORDER OF ONE QUESTION BECAUSE THAT WAS NOT OUR NUMBER ONE FACT WHAT DO YOU MEAN NUMBER ONE GOAL WAS NOT OUR NUMBER ONE . YEAH SO OUR TALLY I DON'T KNOW IT HASN'T BEEN AUDITED LIKE THE LOTTERY RESULTS BUT OUR TALLY OF OUR TALLY FROM THE LAST CONVERSATION WAS THAT WE'RE COUNCIL MEMBERS PRIORITIZE THIS AS THEIR NUMBER ONE PRIORITY. BUT LET ME TELL YOU HOW THAT HAPPENED. IF YOU DON'T RECALL THE FIRST THING WE DID IS WE HAD THESE GREEN DOTS. THAT'S THE FIRST THING YOU GAVE US WENT UP AND WE PUT THESE GREEN DOTS ON WHAT'S THE MOST IMPORTANT TO US RIGHT. WHAT CAME UP NUMBER ONE I THINK WAS STORMWATER AND NUMBER TWO PUBLIC SAFETY WAS. RIGHT. 
          AND AND THEN A COUPLE OF PEOPLE WERE UPSET THAT THEY DIDN'T GET ENOUGH WHAT ARE WE GOING TO DO? WHAT ARE WE GOING TO DO? AND THEN IT WAS A STARTER. YOU GO I TELL YOU WHAT HERE LET ME GIVE YOU ALL SOME BLUE DOTS FOR ALL THOSE THINGS THAT YOU HAVEN'T ALREADY PUT GREEN DOTS ON GO UP THERE AND OTHERS THAT ARE REMAINING THAT HAVE ONE OR TWO DOTS THAT DIDN'T MAKE THE LIST GO AND PUT A BLUE DOT ON WHAT'S THE MOST IMPORTANT THING TO YOU? AND THAT'S HOW THAT GOT. SO THE FIRST THE FIRST SET OF GOALS THAT WERE NUMBER ONE WERE ALL THE GREEN DOT GOALS. THOSE ARE THE HAS BINS ALL ALL A RETHINK THE WAY YOU POSITION I MY RECOLLECTION WAS EVERYBODY WAS GIVEN MULTIPLE GREEN DOTS THEY GO UP AND IDENTIFY THE THE 
          [01:00:10]
THE INITIATIVE THE PRIORITY BETTER IMPORTANT EVERYONE DID AND GOT FANNED OUT A BIT AND SAID OKAY MOST IMPORTANT YOU ONE DOWN $1 ON SOMETHING BUT WAS ON WHAT WAS NOT ALREADY CHOSEN OTHERWISE MY BLUE DOT WOULD HAVE BEEN ON STORMWATER OH OUT THERE WELL LET ME LET ME THROW THIS AT STEVE SO IT IT REGARDLESS OF THE DOTS WELL IT'S A WORK CALL. 
          I'M NOT SAYING SCIENCE GOT PUT IN HERE THEY REALLY SHOULDN'T EVEN BE IN OUR GOAL. 
          BUT WHAT I'M SAYING IS THAT THAT'S WHAT WE'RE HERE TO DO TODAY IS TO KIND OF GO THROUGH ALL THAT AND THEN DETERMINE WHAT IS NUMBER ONE, TWO, THREE, FOUR AND ON. 
          THAT'S A I MEAN THAT'S A GREAT, GREAT POINT AND I HAVE TO ACCEPT HERE FORGIVE IT BY THE WAY, DON'T ACCEPT THAT WE'RE WE PREFER NOT TO INTRODUCE ANY NEW STRATEGIES TODAY. 
          THAT WOULD BE THAT WOULD BE A LITTLE BIT BUT THAT'S UP HERE TODAY ORDERING ALREADY RESTATE ALL THAT'S WHY WE'RE HERE AND SO WHEN WE GET TO THAT THAT POINT IN THE CONVERSATION WHERE I'M TO SAY ALL RIGHT NOW WE'VE GOT ALL THESE STRATEGIES, HOW DO WE HOW DO WE WORK THEM THEN I THINK IT'S ONLY FAIR YOU DO NOT WANT TO READ MORE. I THEY LOOK AT IT HOW COULD STORM WATER GET SEVEN DOTS AND THEN GET ZERO? I THINK ONE WAY TO ADDRESS THAT IS THE THIS WAS EVERYTHING WAS LEFT OVER SO YOU CAN USE THAT WORD CORRECT. 
          SO YOU DID THAT YOU PUT THOSE ITEMS AND MADE THEM THE TOP IS NOT THE FIRST STEP BUT EIGHT HERE THERE'S NOT SO SO I'M SAYING AS BEANS COME ON OTHERS PEOPLE GOT UPSET BECAUSE OH NO WE REALLY TO FOCUS ON THOSE THINGS OH I THINK I MEAN I THINK THERE'LL BE OPPORTUNITY TO REORDER THESE AND WE DISCUSSED A FEW SURPRISINGLY I'LL ALSO SAY THAT THESE YOU KNOW IN A WAY MOST OF THESE WERE BECAUSE IT'S NUMBER SIX ON THE LIST DOESN'T MEAN WE'RE NOT GOING TO TOUCH THIS YEAR OR NEXT YEAR ITEM NUMBER SIX OR ITEM NUMBER SEVEN COULD GET ITEM NUMBER SIX YOU'LL SEE ACTION ITEMS 21 ACTION ITEMS BUNCH OF YOUR TWO ACTION AFTER PRIORITIZED ON SEVEN BUT IT'S THE MINDSET OF WHAT YOU'RE SAYING. 
          I SAID WHAT WE'RE AFTER THAT EVERYONE'S KIND OF RE CATEGORIZING WHAT THEY'RE THINKING FROM OUR FIRST SESSION BASED ON SOME OF THE STUFF STUFF I WANT TO CORRECT IT AND YOU OR OTHERWISE GOING TO LOSE FOCUS ON WHAT WE TRIED TO DO IN OUR FIRST SESSION WHAT THE ONE WAY THAT WE'VE TOUCHED ON ALREADY IS I CAN ADDRESS A LITTLE BIT AND I THINK A LOT OF THAT ANGST COMES FROM THIS DOCUMENT WHICH THEN GETS TRANSFERRED INTO THAT GOALS. 
          BUT AS MELINDA COUNCILWOMAN TURNER MENTIONED AND IF WE COLLAPSE X ASSETS AND REINFORCE ISLAND RESILIENCE AND INFRASTRUCTURE WITH EMPHASIS ON STORM WATER THEN THAT RAISES NUMBER FOUR FROM THIS DOCUMENT AND AS WELL ON THIS ONE UP INTO WHAT IS CONSIDERED AND I DON'T UNDERSTAND THIS TOP PRIORITY ITEMS AND IT MAYBE THAT'S THAT'S AN OKAY TITLE BUT THEN THE THE NEXT BULLETED TITLE ADDITIONAL IMPORTANT ITEMS THAT'S WHERE THE MINDSET I THINK GETS REALLY TURNED ON ITS HEAD. I DON'T KNOW IF THIS DOCUMENT IS GOING TO BE PART OF WHAT GOES ONLINE BUT I FIND IT TO BE CONFUSING HERE IN THE ACTUAL STRATEGIC PLAN. WELL, A LITTLE BIT A LITTLE IT IS. 
          BUT I THINK THIS I THINK THIS IS THE CONFUSING THAT REALLY AND IF WE DO AS MELINDA SUGGESTED AND WE DISCUSS AND HOPEFULLY AGREE ON COLLAPSING THOSE STORM WATER IS A TOP I DON'T KNOW HOW IT CAN BE CONSIDERED AN ADDITIONAL PORT ITEM. 
          IT ISN'T TOP PRIORITY IF YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT JUST ABOUT ANYTHING ON THIS ISLAND WHETHER IT'S WEATHER, WHETHER IT'S OUR STORMWATER, WHETHER IT'S THE ABILITY TO EVACUATE YOU KNOW, 
          [01:05:10]
THE URGENCY OR CONTINUE TO DEVELOP IF WE DON'T PLAN FOR THAT STORMWATER AND THAT INFRASTRUCTURE NONE OF THE REST OF IT'S GOING TO HAVE FARE VERY WELL AND WE SEE THAT CURRENTLY BECAUSE STORMWATER AND INFRASTRUCTURE WASN'T EVER A AND WE SEE WHAT WE'RE DEALING WITH ON THE ISLAND NOW SO AN AGREEMENT WITH MY COLLEAGUE COUNCILMAN DESIGN I WOULD LIKE TO SEE A THOSE COLLAPSED BUT A FOCUS IN ON MAKING A TOP PRIORITY THOSE ITEMS OF INFRASTRUCTURE AND STORMWATER SO THE DOCUMENT THAT'S IN FRONT OF US ERM TOP PRIORITY AND ADDITIONAL IMPORTANT DOCUMENT HOW I'D LIKE YOU TO SUSPEND THE IDEA THAT WE'VE NUMBER THESE AND THAT I'M THAT AND WE WERE I WANT TO I THINK TO YOUR POINT WHAT MIGHT HAPPEN IS WE MIGHT FIND THAT WELL JEEZ IF GOAL NUMBER ONE IS FOR THAT WE HAVE YOUR ATTENTION ON STORMWATER AND THAT OFFLOADING OR FRONT LOADING A FEW ACTION ITEMS THAT ARE IN STORMWATER AND MAYBE BACK LOADING OR SIDE LIGHTING SIDELOADING SOME ACTIONS FELL FURTHER DOWN THE CHAIN BUT FOR NOW I WOULD SAY AND THE IDEA THAT THERE AREN'T THAT THESE GO ON THE NUMBER FOR NOW AND WE'LL HAVE TO GO BACK AND DO THOSE WE WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT WRAP PIECE ON ONE ACTION ITEMS THAT NEED GET DONE AS PART OF OUR SO ACTS AND HANG ON 1/2 MOMENT I GUESS I'M TRYING TRY MY BEST TO FURTHER EMPOWER YOU GUYS OKAY BECAUSE AND THEN YOU SAID STAFF CAPACITY, COUNCIL CAPACITY AND MAKING SURE THAT WE ENGAGE ALONG THIS PROCESS SO I'M OKAY WITH GOING THROUGH 1 TO 10 NOT KNOWING WHICH ONE IS GOING TO BE THE ONE THAT HAS THE MOST FIRST YEAR ACTION ITEMS BECAUSE I THINK THAT'S THE DISCUSSION WE HAVE TODAY. 
          SO I'M I'M ASKING THAT YOU GUYS REALLY BE PROVOCATIVE WHEN IT COMES TO THESE ACTION ITEMS. WHAT WE'RE GOING TO START IN YEAR ONE MAY NOT BE LIVE TODAY SO AT THE END IF IT'S SIX ITEMS AND YEAR ONE COME BACK TO US AND SAY WELL DOES EVERY CAPACITY DOESN'T MEET COUNCIL CAPACITY ADVANCES NO THERE IS GOING TO BE AMONG US TO FIGURE OUT WHICH ONES ARE GOING TO FALL OFF AND GO TO YEAR TWO BECAUSE WE'RE TOO FOCUSED ON 1 TO 10 RIGHT NOW AND NOT REALLY FOCUSED ON WHAT GOING TO TAKE TO GET THEM DONE AND I THINK THAT'S WHAT I THINK THAT'S WE DID IN OUR TWO DAY SESSION OH WE DIDN'T WE DIDN'T GO THROUGH THE ACTUAL WE WENT THROUGH THE OVERARCHING GOALS. I THINK TODAY'S EXERCISE IF I'M UNDERSTANDING CORRECTLY BECAUSE WE'VE GOT THE STUFF IN FRONT OF US IS TO REALLY UNDERSTAND WHAT IT'S GOING TO TAKE TO GET THEM DONE. SO AT THE END OF IT STONEWALL OCCURRED AND UP WITH ALL OF THE ACTION ITEMS BEING IN YEAR ONE OR HELLO COUNCIL THAT MEANS THAT SOMEONE'S GOING TO FALL OFF IN YEAR ONE IF WE'RE GOING TO DO THAT BECAUSE I'M NOT SURE THAT STAFF HAS THE CAPACITY TO DO IT I ASK BECAUSE THAT WELL WE'RE TRYING TO RECOVER ONE, ONE, ONE. 
          WE'RE PLEASED ALL OF YOU THE NUMBER OF ACTION ITEMS AND AGAIN I'LL WRAP PRIORITY RIGHT PROVIDE THE ACTION ITEMS THAT HAVE 60% OF STAFF RESOURCES NEEDED TO MOVE THINGS FORWARD. 
          RIGHT SO YOU'RE REPORTING LOCATED AND IT'S IT'S YOUR WAY ON IN THAT YOU SHOW WHAT'S PRIORITY ONE BY THE RESOURCES YOU PUT YOU KNOW ON PART AND I'M I ASK THAT WE GO AHEAD AND GO INTO THAT FIRST GOAL ITEM THAT INITIAL LET ME REPHRASE THAT SO YOU HAVE SOMETHING FOR ACTING ISLAND CHARACTER THROUGH MANAGING GROWTH AND SO THE TITLE IS PRETTY DESCRIPTIVE BUT WHAT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT HERE ARE LAND USE POLICIES, REGULATORY TOOLS AND PRESERVATION STRATEGIES THAT GUIDE FUTURE DEVELOPMENTS THAT REFLECTS THE OUTCOMES AND EXPECTATION OF RESIDENTS ON BEHALF OF THE LAW FIRM ALL THE WAY OUT OF THIS RIGHT COORDINATION OF ALL OF THESE TOOLS THAT ARE IN FRONT OF US. YOU'VE GOT A COMPREHENSIVE 
          [01:10:04]
MANAGER FRAMEWORK THAT'S THE COLLECTION OF ALL OF THESE TACTICS THAT WILL ADDRESS THE OVERARCHING. SO THESE ARE THE THINGS THAT HAVE TO HAPPEN. 
          THESE ARE THE THINGS THAT THESE ARE THE ACTION ITEMS THAT ARE RECOMMENDED. 
          I JUST WANT TO SAY THAT I REALLY APPRECIATE THE CHANGE IN HOW WE HAVE WORDED THIS IN THE LAST CITY CHECK PLAN IT WAS ESTABLISH A GROWTH MANAGEMENT STRATEGY. 
          NOW WE'RE TALKING ABOUT PROTECTING ISLAND CHARACTER THROUGH MANAGING GROWTH. 
          IT'S A SIGNIFICANT CHANGE IN THE WORDS AND THAT'S WHY WE'RE SO PASSIONATE ABOUT WHAT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT TODAY BECAUSE THESE WORDS ARE IMPORTANT THIS IS WHAT THE PUBLIC IS GOING TO LOOK AT AND ANALYZE EACH AND EVERY WORD. AND SO I JUST WANT TO ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THIS IS A SIGNIFICANT CHANGE IN OUR DIRECTION AND OUR APPROACH. 
          I QUOTE I WANT TO ACKNOWLEDGE THE FEEDBACK INCLUDING YOU THAT HELPED US WITH THOSE WORDS. 
          YOU KNOW, IT'S WHY I STARTED OUT BY SAYING I DO BELIEVE THAT THIS THE THREE OF THE STRATEGIC SINCE I'VE ARRIVED IS THE THE BEST ONE EVER SO I APPRECIATE THAT MATT SAYING GOAL X I DO THINK THAT BY THE END OF TODAY WE'RE GOING TO FIGURE THAT OUT THE CREAM WILL RISE TO THE WE SHOULD GO THROUGH THIS WITH PACE BECAUSE WE DON'T WE WON'T GET IT ALL DONE TODAY. 
          YEAH AND WE ALSO NEED TO KNOW WHAT WE'RE WORKING ON WHAT'S IN PROGRESS RIGHT. 
          AND I'LL HELP YOU HERE, MATT AS MUCH AS I PLEASE. YOU NEED ME SO I DON'T KNOW THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN 1.1 RIGHT. EXPLOIT ONE INCLUDE A ROAD MAP TO GUIDE WHERE DEVELOPMENT SHOULD OCCUR TO LAND USE MAP THAT ALIGNS WITH YOUR ZONING AND INFRASTRUCTURE INVESTMENTS IN GREEN FOR ALL OF US WE'RE SORRY I THINK IT WOULD BE MORE HELPFUL NOT TO READ LINE BY LINE BUT TO FOCUS ON EACH OF THOSE ACTION STEPS INDIVIDUALLY AND PICK OUT THE KEY WORDS LIKE THE KEY WORD IN 1.1 IS LAND USE ELEMENT OF THE PLAN ONE POINT TO DISTRICT PLAN'S 1.3 IS 1.4 AS MUNICIPAL CODE IS IF YOU WITH ALL OTHERS I LIKE TO SHOW YOU RING FOREVER I LOVE THE FEELING THAT WELL MATT I WOULD SAY THAT YOU KNOW WE'VE ASKED YOU ALL TO COME IN AND FACILITATE THIS AND HOW DO YOU FEEL BEST FOR US IS WHAT I WOULD SUGGEST AND CAN I JUST ADD THAT THANK YOU FOR SAYING THAT BECAUSE WHILE SOME OF US MAY SAY KEY WORDS IN ONE WAY, OTHERS OF US MAY SEE OTHER KEY WORDS THAT ARE SO I APPRECIATE THE EFFORT THAT YOU'RE PUTTING IN UNDER UNDER THIS FIRST ACTION ITEM ACTIONS CONCERNS, COMMENTS AND IT'S AGREED THAT THIS IS AN ACTION ITEM THAT NEEDS TO BE ACHIEVED. AND I REALLY WANT TO HEAR BACK FROM FROM FROM COUNCIL ON THIS BECAUSE MY RECOLLECTION IS THAT THIS HAS BEEN A PRIORITY AND HIGH PRIORITY NOT FOR COUNCIL BUT FOR THE COMMUNITY. SO PLEASE WE REFOCUS OR YOU MIGHT GO BACK ON IS GOOD I FRONTLOAD AND ACTIONABLE IN FY 26 WHAT ARE THE DISTRICT PLANS WE'VE DISCUSSED AND SPECIFIC IDENTIFY MANY OF THESE UNDERWAY ALREADY THE ISSUE COUNCIL ANY CONCERN 1.3 THE LAND MANAGEMENT ORDINANCE I'LL NOTE THAT THE LAND MANAGEMENT ORDINANCE PROBABLY IN EVERY STRATEGIC ACTION PLAN MOVING FORWARD TO HAVE A OF X, Y AND Z AND IT SHOULD BE EVERGREEN EVOLVING AS YOU I'M GOING TO SAY SOMETHING IN A MINUTE THAT I'M GOING TO USE THE N WORD AND I'LL EXPLAIN THAT TO YOU IN A MINUTE. SO IT TAKES TIME TO DO THE LAND USE ELEMENT THE CURRENT PLAN DOES NOT HAVE THAT IN THERE I TOTALLY AGREE WITH THAT. 
          DISTRICT PLANS ARE IN PROGRESS ELMO TEXT IS WAITING IN A WAY ON THE DISTRICT PLANS. 
          MEANWHILE WE'VE GOT PINCH POINTS. WE'VE GOT SUBDIVISIONS WITH LOT SIZES WE DON'T LIKE. WE'VE GOT TOO MANY TIMESHARES AS WELL AS SHORT TERM RENTALS. 
          I'M GOING TO SUGGEST THAT WE ADD AN ACTION ITEM CALLED A LIMITED MORATORIUM. 
          [01:15:03]
YES. THERE'S NO WORD A LIMITED MORATORIUM ON PINCH POINTS. 
          THE PRESSURE POINTS THAT WOULD BE TIMESHARES, SHORT TERM RENTAL PERMITS AND SUBDIVISIONS EXCLUDING FAMILY SUBDIVISIONS BECAUSE UNLESS AND UNTIL WE CAN RELEASE OF THAT PRESSURE WE WILL NOT BE ABLE TO PROTECT OUR ISLAND CHARACTER. IT TAKES TIME TO CREATE A NEW LAND MANAGEMENT ORDINANCE AND WAIT TILL THE RUBBER HITS THE ROAD WHEN THE NEW MAPS COME OUT AND YOU AND FOLKS SEE HOW THEIR PROPERTY IS AFFECTED BY THE TEXT AND THE NEW MAPS AND WE NEED SOME WAY TO RELIEVE THAT PRESSURE BETWEEN NOW AND A COUPLE OF YEARS FROM NOW. 
          I FULLY AGREE WITH ABSOLUTELY THAT SECOND SO SO WE TRIED THIS DISCUSSION HOW LONG AGO IS IT? I THINK YOU WERE DEFINITELY HERE AS WELL AS OTHERS, MELINDA I LIKE THE STEVE WERE NOT HERE WHEN WE HAD THIS DISCUSSION MORATORIUM AND COMING OF THAT DISCUSSION THERE WAS NO CONSENSUS NO MATTER HOW MUCH WE TRIED TO DO EXACTLY AS YOU'VE SAID TIME HAS BEEN LOST EFFORT HAS BEEN EXPENDED AND PUT ASIDE SO IF WE'RE TALKING ABOUT SPECIFICS WITH REGARD TO A LIMITED MORE I'D LIKE TO YOU WANT TO SAY TWO THINGS BUT I WANT TO GO ONE STEP FURTHER ON THAT AND ASK AS THINK I MENTIONED SOME OTHER PEOPLE THAT WE PUT ON THE AGENDA TO CREATE A WHATEVER IT NEEDS TO BE CREATED AN ORDINANCE A CHANGE IN USE THAT HILTON HEAD ISLAND NO LONGER AT THE TIME FOR THE FUTURE ACCEPTS PERMITS FOR TIMESHARES BUT THAT IS DONE THAT THAT USE LAND USE IS OFF THE TABLE TIMESHARES NO LONGER CAN BE PERMITTED OR BUILT ON HILTON HEAD WE HAVE THE EXISTING ONES THAT WE HAVE SO BE IT BUT NO MORE WE'RE DONE. 
          WE SEE THAT DEBACLE ABSOLUTE DEBACLE WHAT'S HAPPENING OVER IN THE FOLLIES AREA BECAUSE THE TIMESHARES THAT WERE PERMITTED THERE IT'S IT'S AN EMBARRASSMENT TO THE TOWN FOR THOSE WHO APPROVED SHAME ON THEM THE WORK WASN'T DONE AHEAD OF TIME AND NOW WE SEE THE REPERCUSSIONS AND THE LONG TERM DESTRUCTION OF THAT ENTIRE AREA. 
          IT'S GOT TO STOP THERE'S NOWHERE ON THIS ISLAND WHERE ANY MORE OF THAT IS APPROPRIATE WANTED OR FRANKLY NECESSARY. AND SO I'M ASKING MAYOR THAT WE MOVE WITH ALL RAPID TO REMOVE TIMESHARES AS A USE ON HEAD ISLAND FOR THE FUTURE THAT'S THE SECOND THING THAT'S MENTIONED THAT I WANTED TO PICK UP ON IS THE NEW THAT ARE COMING OUT WITH REGARD TO DISTRICT PLANS. WE'VE HAD MEETINGS ABOUT THIS, WE'VE TALKED ABOUT THIS AND I WILL WORK AS HARD TO ENSURE THAT THERE'S NO DISRUPTION. THE NEIGHBORHOODS THAT EXIST AND THERE'S NO SURPRISES AND THAT WHAT PEOPLE BOARD IS NO LONGER THAT PEOPLE GO COME ON TO HILTON HEAD AND LOOK TO BUY BEHIND THE GATES. THAT'S CLEAR. 
          THERE ARE NEIGHBORHOODS, NEIGHBORHOODS SUBSTANTIAL FINANCIAL INVESTMENTS HAVE BEEN MADE INTO THOSE NEIGHBORHOODS AS RESIDENTIAL NEIGHBORHOODS THAT HAVE BEEN DESTROYED BY THE SHORT TERM RENTAL INDUSTRY ON THIS ISLAND AND IT HAS TO STOP AND ANY DISTRICT PLAN THAT SPECIFIES AS AREA AS A SHORT TERM RENTAL DESIGNATED SPOT WILL BE FOUGHT WITH EVERY OUNCE . MY ABILITY TO MAKE SURE THAT THAT DOES NOT HAPPEN IT'S NOT FAIR THOSE WHO LIVE HERE NOW NEVER EXPECTED TO IN THE SITUATION THAT THEY'RE IN THEY'RE NOT PROTECTED BY P.O.D. COVENANTS AND SO THIS TOWN MUST PROTECT THEM AND IT'S TIME THAT WE REALLY GET BUSY AND START DOING THAT AND THAT'S ABOUT AS FORCEFUL AS I'M GOING TO BE ABOUT OTHER THAN 1.3 WHERE UPDATE THE LAND MANAGEMENT TO ALIGN WITH DISTRICT PLANS WHICH AGAIN IS CRITICAL TERMS OF MAKING SURE WE PROTECT THE EXISTING NEIGHBORHOODS OUTSIDE THE GAINS AND THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN WHICH AT FIVE AND A HALF YEARS NOW SHOULD BE ACTIVELY WORKED ON TO MAKE SURE THAT THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN REFLECTS THE DESIRES OF THE COMMUNITY IN THE COUNCIL TODAY. OTHER THOUGHTS ON WHAT'S BEEN SAID SO WE'VE GOT A PROPOSAL 
          [01:20:03]
FOR A MORATORIUM OUT LIMITED THE MORATORIUM LANGUAGE CANNOT BE EXPANDED TO INCLUDE THE SHORT NOW URBAN AREA YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT MORE LONGER TERM LOOK AT THAT LONG TERM I AM NOT I AM NOT LOOKING TO TAKE ANYONE'S PROPERTY RIGHTS AWAY BUT WE'VE DONE A HORRIBLE JOB OUTSIDE OF THE GATES OF MANAGING SHORT TERM RENTALS AND HOW WE UNDERSTAND RESIDENTIAL NEIGHBORHOOD VERSUS COMMERCIAL ENTITY AND THAT'S A DISCUSSION THAT WE WE NEED TO FOCUS IN ON THERE HAS TO BE A SOLUTION THERE NEIGHBORHOODS THAT ARE RUN BY LLC THE HOMES THE MANY HOTELS THAT ARE BIGGER THAN THE BLUFFTON IN THAT INDEED DO TAKE EVERY INCH OF THE LAND WITH IMPERVIOUS SURFACE WHICH GOES BACK TO OUR INFRASTRUCTURE AND STORMWATER ISSUES THAT WE HAVE THIS DOES IN THIS ONE COUNCILMAN DESMOND SAID HAS BEEN A PRIORITY SINCE THE BEGINNING OF TIME SINCE THE BEGINNING OF THIS TOWN THE PURPOSE OF EVEN CREATING THE TOWN WAS TO HELP MANAGE THE GROWTH AND THE STRUCTURE OF THE ISLAND BECAUSE BEAUFORT COUNTY WAS DOING SUCH A HORRIBLE JOB OF IT AND IN EVERY BOOK YOU READ, EVERY DOCUMENT YOU SEE IT'S ALL ABOUT MANAGING AND HERE WE ARE STILL TRYING TO DO THAT AND IN MOST RESPECTS AND IN MANY BUT MOST RESPECTS WE FAIL THE RESIDENTIAL NEIGHBORHOODS OUTSIDE OF THE GATES ARE ABSOLUTELY OVERCOME WITH A QUALITY OF LIFE AND THEY NEVER AND SO I DON'T WANT TO PUT A I DON'T WANT TO DISCUSS IN QUICK WAY WHAT WE DO ABOUT LIMITATIONS IN TERMS OF NUMBERS OR VIA A MORATORIUM ON SHORT TERM RENTALS BECAUSE WE HAVE TO WE HAVE TO TALK ABOUT PROPERTY RIGHTS. WE HAVE TO TALK ABOUT RESIDENTIAL NEIGHBORHOOD AND WE HAVE TO TALK ABOUT AND UNDERSTAND COMMERCIAL ENTITY AND. 
          THOSE DISCUSSIONS HAVEN'T BEEN HAD SO I HOPE THAT'S CLEAR. IT'S CLEAR IN MY MIND IT SEEMS TO MAYOR THAT'S A CONVERSATION THAT REALLY NEEDS TO BE SOMETHING AT THE TIP OF OUR WELL TOP OF OUR LIST. WHAT I'M THINKING IS THIS IS A DISCUSSION ITEM THAT NEEDS TO BE ON THERE AS A STRATEGIC ACTION PLAN FOR US TO COME UP WITH SOME KIND OF A RESOLUTION HERE TO COME FORWARD IN JULY. I'M NOT SURE THAT THAT'S FEASIBLE BECAUSE IT NEEDS TO BE A LOT MORE INFORMATION TO COME FORWARD BUT I THINK ADDING IT THERE FOR A DISCUSSION PURPOSE IS FEASIBLE WITHOUT ENTERTAIN OTHER OTHER COMMENTS. YES I AM SUPPORTIVE OF TAKING A LOOK AT THIS AND ADDING IT AS AN ACTION ITEM. YOU KNOW WHEN I THINK ABOUT THE THREE CATEGORIES THAT YOU TALKED ABOUT TIME SURE GOES RIGHT UP TO THE TOP OF FOR ME AS WELL AND THEN THE OTHER TWO THAT WERE MENTIONED ARE GOING TO REQUIRE A LOT MORE CONVERSATION BUT I THINK THAT CONVERSATION IS GOOD. I WAS ASSUMING WE WERE GOING TO HAVE SOME OF THAT IN OUR HOUSING WORKSHOP AS WELL AS WE WRESTLE HOUSING AND SO I AM SUPPORTIVE OF IT AS A ITEM UNDER THIS CATEGORY AND TO ADD THE ACTION ITEM OF LIMITED MORATORIUM THIS TIME AND TO UNDERSTAND THAT THE MANAGEMENT LAND MANAGEMENT ORDINANCE UPDATES WOULD BE ACTIONS WOULD BE REFLECTIVE OF THIS DISCUSSION AND EXPLORATION. 
          YES. OR IDEA OF A LIMITED MORATORIUM IS THAT IT ALWAYS IS CERTAIN THINGS TO GIVE YOU THE TIME FOR DISCUSSION IS NOT JUST LIMITED IN FOCUS BUT IT'S LIMITED IN TIME AND MY POINT IS THAT IT'S ANOTHER DISCUSSION WE NEED TO HAVE OUTSIDE OF HERE RIGHT BECAUSE WE DO HAVE A LOT OF OTHER ITEMS TO COVER AND I'M SURE THERE'LL BE ADDITIONAL CONVERSATIONS BUT MARK, YOU HAVE A COMMENT I KNOW THIS IS GREAT DISCUSSION AND WHAT I APPRECIATE IS THERE'S AT LEAST FOUR OF YOU THAT SAID THAT WE'RE GOING TO ADD IT. 
          WE WILL PUT AN ASSESSMENT, A MORATORIUM, WHATEVER THOSE PROPER WORDS ARE. 
          IF YOU HAVE SOME BEFORE THE END OF THE DAY SHARE THEM. WE DON'T WANT TO GET THOSE WRONG AND HAVE HAVE A STICKING POINT WITH THE APPROVAL OF THE STRATEGIC PLAN THAT WILL BRING YOU IN JULY. WHAT'S REALLY IMPORTANT THAT I SIMPLY CLARIFY IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A MAJOR SUBDIVISION, RIGHT? THOSE ARE THE SUBDIVISIONS WE SEE UP AND DOWN THE ROADS FROM THAT I CALL ANYWHERE U.S. RIGHT. 
          AND THAT WE'RE TRYING TO GET OUR DEVELOPMENT AND DESIGN STANDARDS APPROPRIATE DIFFERENT THAN SOMEBODY SPLITTING THEIR LOT TO SELL A PIECE OR TO CLEAR UP SOME SOME FAMILY HOME ISSUES. SO AM I CLEAR THAT IT'S ALL SUBDIVISIONS OR MAJOR 
          [01:25:04]
SUBDIVISIONS WHICH ARE FIVE AND MORE OR MORE THAN FIVE BECAUSE MORE THAN FIVE ARE MORE THAN FIVE AND THE OTHER EXCEPTION IS FAMILY AS FARM FAMILY SUBDIVISIONS. 
          CAN YOU SPECIFY EXACTLY WHAT YOU'RE REFERRING TO THERE DEFINED THERE ARE TWO THINGS THAT CAME OUT OF THE GULF DUTY AND CULTURAL PRESERVATION TASK FORCE AND THAT IS TO HAVE FAMILY COMPOUNDS AND FAMILY SUBDIVISIONS IS THOSE FAMILY SPECIFIC AND WE FIND IN THE AMA THAT'S WHAT I THOUGHT YOU MEANT AND I'M GOING TO PUSH BACK A LITTLE BECAUSE AND EVERY TIME WE TAKE A STEP TO DO SOMETHING WE CONTINUE TO DO WHAT I THINK IS UNHEALTHY FOR ANY COMMUNITY AND WE START TO SEPARATE THIS PORTION FROM THAT PORTION AND MAKE RULES FOR ONE THAT DON'T APPLY TO OTHERS ON HILTON HEAD WHERE COMMUNITY AND ONE ISLAND AND I DO NOT SEE THAT DIFFERENCE AS A HEALTHY SITUATION IF WE'RE GOING TO DO SOMETHING WE DO IT FOR EVERYONE EQUALLY AND IT APPLIES THAT WAY ACROSS THE BOARD SO I WOULD NOT BE SUPPORTIVE IF IF THAT WAS THE INTENT THEN I WON'T SUPPORT A MORATORIUM ANY SORT PERIOD IS ONE ISLAND OR THAT'S IT THOUGHTS ON THE CARVE OUT ABSOLUTELY I GUESS I'LL PREFACE MY COMMENTS WITH WE'RE CURRENTLY IN THE PROCESS OF FOCUSING ON SOME LAND MANAGEMENT ALREADY AMENDMENTS AND TO A LARGE DEGREE THOSE WERE PINCH POINTS FOR US. I'LL JUST USE THE EXAMPLE OF TIMES IS IF TIMES IS A PINCH POINT FOR WAS MAYBE THAT'S THE ALAMO PRIORITY THAT WE WORK ON RIGHT AWAY OKAY I THINK WE'RE GOING TO STRUGGLE WITH THE M-WORD AND ALSO TRYING TO TAKE PROPERTY RIGHTS. I JUST FEEL LIKE THAT'S A VERY SLIPPERY. 
          I UNDERSTAND THE REASON FOR THE CONVERSATION BUT I JUST WANT TO PUT THAT OUT. 
          IF THE THINGS THAT WE WANT TO DEAL WITH WE CAN MAKE THEM ALAMO PRIORITY AMENDMENTS IS WHERE MY MIND IS GOING FIRST AND AS AS THE EXCLUSIONS I THINK THAT'S IMPORTANT FOR US TO TO KEEP IN MIND BECAUSE ONE SHOE DOESN'T FIT ALL WE SPEND A LOT OF TIME SPEAKING DIRECTLY TO THE ITEM AS FAR THE ECOLOGY RECOMMENDATIONS ARE CONCERNED WE'VE SEEN A LOT OF LOSS OF LAND BECAUSE CERTAIN CONDITIONS AND THE ENVIRONMENT AND THE WHOLE REASON THAT THEY WERE ASKED OF EXCEPTIONS WAS TO MAKE SURE THAT WE KEEP BACK TO THE MISSION AND VISION AND INCLUSIVE AND MULTIDIMENSIONAL COMMUNITY. SO I THINK THAT PIECE HAS TO BE TALKED AS FAR AS WHAT OF A CHANGE WE'RE GOING TO MAKE BECAUSE AGAIN ONE SIZE DOES NOT ALWAYS FIT ALL. SO I WANT TO REACT TO THAT SINCE YOU WANTED TO TO HEAR FROM US I MEAN THERE WAS MAYOR WAS GETTING AT THIS AND AT THE PACE THAT I'M THE POLICY A MORATORIUM IS ASKED TO COME LATER SO I DO ENCOURAGE YOU TO HAVE THAT DEBATE AND FOR US TO BE A ROLE IN OUR LANGUAGE AROUND HAVING A MORATORIUM FOR FOUR PRIORITY ALLOTMENT TYPES AND FOR THE LAND MANAGEMENT ORDINANCE AND AT THE AT THE DISCUSSION YOU ALL CAN YOU ALL CAN TAKE YOUR POSITIONS AND TAKE YOUR AND IF OUR VOTES SHAKE OUT OR VOTES SHAKE OUT IF THEY DON'T THEY DON'T EXACTLY THIS IS NOT THE TIME TO HAVE THAT THAT I'LL I'LL SEE YOU THIS POLICY DISCUSSION YEAH WE WILL ADD MORATORIUM AS AS AN ACTION ITEM ONE OUR NEXT POINT FOR YOU JUST BECAUSE IF YOU ADD THE MORATORIUM AS AN ACTION ITEM AS THAT FOR DISCUSSION PURPOSES AS YOU JUST TO FIND IT IS THAT CLEAR IN THIS DOCUMENT SO I WOULD MAKE THAT I MAKE THAT CLEAR IN THIS DOCUMENT THIS DOCUMENT CAN'T FIND ANY OF YOU TO A FUTURE VOTE. 
          RIGHT. WHAT WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR IS CONSENSUS. 
          SO WHAT I WAS LOOKING FOR WAS A MAJORITY OF HEADS NODDING AND UNDERSTAND THE CONCERN OF THE GROUP ADDING BECAUSE IF WE CAN'T GET TO FOUR OR FIVE FOLKS WHO WANT TO AT LEAST DISCUSS A MORATORIUM THEN WE SHOULDN'T PUT IT AS AN ACTION ITEM. IT SOUNDS TO ME LIKE IT'S LIKE THERE'S OPPORTUNITY FOR DISCUSSION BUT AGAIN IT ALL DEPENDS ON VARIABLES AS WE'VE 
          [01:30:02]
DISCUSSED AND WE HAVE AT THE WALL AND THE POLICY DISCUSSION YOU'RE NOT BOUND TO VOTE FOR IT JUST BECAUSE IT'S ISN'T RIGHT. I WOULD FAVOR WHEN YOU TALK ABOUT MORATORIUMS ADDING AT THE BEGINNING CONSIDER I HAVE IN MY MIND NOT READY DECIDE WHETHER WE HAVE ANY MORATORIUMS AT ALL INSTEAD OF SAYING WE'RE GOING TO HAVE SOME I THINK WE OUGHT TO CONSIDER THE OF WHETHER WE SHOULD HAVE SOME DISCUSSIONS AROUND THE MORATORIUM AND KEEP IN MIND THIS IS A WORKSHOP RIGHT FOR US TO FIGURE HOW TO MOVE FORWARD WITH THIS VOTE ON IT AND UTILIZE AS TO WHAT WHAT IT STATES. THIS IS FOR THE PURPOSE BUILDING IT, NOT DISCUSSING THE INTRICACIES OF POLICY CAN I CODE AMENDMENTS THAT ARE LISTED HERE PARKING RULES SHORT TERM RULES ALL OF THESE ITEMS AND YOU SEE THAT PLAYING OVER MULTIPLE YEARS WILL CONTINUE EVOLVE AS YOU AND A NUMBER OF THOSE I JUST WANT TO POINT OUT THAT SOME OF THOSE ARE DONE OR BEING WORKED ON AND I DON'T KNOW HOW YOU HOW YOU IDENTIFY THAT WITHIN ASTRA'S DON'T ABANDON BOATS IT'S AN ONGOING ISSUE IT'S A CURRENT ONGOING ISSUE IS THIS INDICATING THAT OUR ABANDONED BOAT POLICY THAT WE HAVE IN PLACE ISN'T STRONG ENOUGH OR OR THERE BE AN ASTERISK THAT SAYS WE HAVE A POLICY IN PLACE ALWAYS? THANK YOU ALL FOR AGREEING TO ADDRESS THE NOISE OUTSIDE THE GATES THAT'S BEEN THAT'S BEEN DONE. 
          I THINK WE'RE SATISFIED AT THIS A NUMBER OF THESE OTHER THINGS WE'RE WORKING ON. 
          IS THERE ANY POINT GOING CONCERN IS THAT SOMEONE PICKS UP THIS BOOK AND THEY BEGIN TO LOOK AT AND THEY SAY OH THIS WHAT HAS TO BE DONE. THEY DON'T UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU JUST THAT IT'S A DISCUSSION THAT CAN BE CHANGED LATER I DO APPRECIATE AND YOUR NEXT STEPS AND Y'ALL'S NARRATIVE HEADED TO THE WORK PORTION OF THIS BINDER SAYS TOWNS LEADERS SHOULD REVIEW THE STRATEGIES IN FULL EACH YEAR AND MAKE NECESSARY REVISIONS REFINEMENTS AS THE PLAN IS EXECUTED. THIS ENSURES THAT THE PLAN IS LIVING DOCUMENT STAYING RELEVANT OVER THE COURSE OF THE PLANNING HORIZON AND I THINK THAT'S IMPORTANT FOR EVERYONE TO TO KNOW THEY PICK THIS UP AND IT'S A LIVING DOCUMENT AND IT'S NOT A PRESCRIPTIVE HERE'S WHAT YOU'RE DOING AND AND MOVE FORWARD AND SAY DON MARK I WOULD ASK THAT WITHIN DOCUMENT THERE IS SOME KIND OF AN INDICATOR THAT WHAT IS IT CURRENTLY PROGRESS AND MOVING FORWARD AND OR COMPLETED BECAUSE IT SAY THAT AND AS I ASKED EARLIER YOU KNOW AS WE MOVE THROUGH THIS WHAT IS BEING WORKED ON WE DON'T WANT TO STOP THAT WE DON'T WANT TO STOP THAT MOMENTUM BUT FOR THE PUBLIC WHEN THEY PICK THIS UP AND LOOK AT IT OKAY, THESE ARE THINGS THAT ARE IN MOTION MAYBE INSTEAD OF , YOU KNOW, 26, 27, 28 CURRENT X 2728 I KNOW THIS IS GOING FORWARD I KNOW I'M ASKING A LOT BUT I'M JUST I DON'T WANT TO SORT OF TAKE OFF THE LIST OF THINGS THAT WE JUST DID. WE GO BACK THOSE WOULDN'T BE UP THERE IF THEY WERE COMPLETE WITHOUT THEIR RESPECT. I THINK THAT AS AN EXAMPLE WE'VE LEARNED A LITTLE BIT ABOUT ABANDONED BOATS. THERE'S BEEN A RECENT SC CODE CHANGE BOB HAS STRUGGLED. I WOULD MORE ALIGNMENT WITH VIEW FOR COUNTY SHERIFF'S OFFICE WE'VE LEARNED THAT THE CODE NEEDS TO BE CALIBRATED SLIGHTLY SO THAT WE HAVE MORE TEETH NOW THAT WE HAVE FUNDS HAVE THE ACCOUNTABILITY AND RESPONSIBILITY THOSE ARE UP THERE WITH THE EVEN THE ADMINISTRATIVE CITATIONS WE ADOPTED IT AND THEN IT WERE GREAT AND I'M I'M SURPRISED THAT WE DIDN'T ADD IT IN THERE BUT WHEN WE ADOPTED ADMINISTRATIVE CITATION FOR PARKING WE DIDN'T INCLUDE FOR TRASH. 
          AND SO AT THE MEETING YOU ASKED US TO COME BACK AND THAT PLEASE ALLOW US TO KEEP ALL OF THOSE UP THERE. I THINK THAT IT'S A HEALTHY PROCESS TO CONTINUE TO WORK WITH THE COMMITTEE CHAIR AND THE MAYOR TO SET THAT AGENDA BASED ON PRIORITY. 
          THIS IS HELPING ME SO HERE'S AN EXAMPLE AND I WILL SAY A REAL WORLD TOWN MANAGER I COME TO WORK AND I START TRYING TO WORK ON ADMINISTRATIVE CITATIONS OR ABANDONED BOATS IF IT'S NOT IN HERE AND ONE OF YOU ASK ME TO START IT I'M NOW TORN WITH DO I WORK ON THIS OR DO I GO WORK ON STORMWATER? DO WORK ON THE MORATORIUM? FOR ME IT'S A BIT OF A 
          [01:35:02]
CONSENSUS OR AN AGREEMENT OF THE WHAT THE TIMING'S HAS TO BE WORKED OUT. 
          I WOULD SAY THERE'S SO MUCH IN HERE WE'RE WORKING ON. I'M GOING TO RECOMMEND THAT WE JUST LEAVE ONE AND USE OUR ABILITY TO KNOW WHAT STARTED OR NOT VERSUS BECAUSE THE SECOND I PUT WHAT WE STARTED IN HERE THREE WEEKS LATER I'LL START SOMETHING ELSE AND NOW THE PLAN OFF FOR THE COMMUNITY ORG I APPRECIATE THAT AND THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT I WANT TO HEAR FROM YOU BECAUSE YOU'RE THE ONES THAT HAVE TO IMPLEMENT. THANK YOU. 
          ALL RIGHT. X POINT FIVE AND I'LL HELP WITH PACE BECAUSE WE'RE BEHIND DESIGN GUIDE UPDATE THE LAND MANAGEMENT ORDINANCE AND THE DESIGN GUIDE HAVE TO GO HAND IN HAND. WE HANDED OUT DESIGN GUIDE WHEN I SAY WE I MEAN SEAN LEININGER I WASN'T EVEN SORRY I DIDN'T WANT HIM TO CALL ME OUT ON IT. I'LL DO IT MYSELF. 
          BUT SEAN HANDED OUT THE DESIGN MANUAL THE DESIGN GUIDE TO GREAT GROUP OF FOLKS AND THE DESIGN REVIEW HANDED THEM A GUIDE GAME A SHARPIE CAME A COUPLE A CAMERA WITH A GREEN DOT NOT A BLUE DOT DON'T WORRY AND A RED DOT AND SAID TAKE SOME PHOTOS OF THINGS YOU LIKE AND TAKE SOME THINGS OF PHOTOS YOU DON'T LIKE AND GET BACK TO US. 
          LET'S START IMPROVING DESIGN GUIDE BUT WITH THE USE PUT TO WORK OUR REVIEW BOARD THAT IS UNDERWAY THE LAND ACQUISITION MANUAL WE KEEP TRYING TO UPDATE IT AND SHOWS YEAR ONE I DO WANT YOU ALL TO TALK ABOUT THAT. IS IT AN IMMEDIATE WE BOUGHT A LOT OF LAND WITH THE MANUAL WE HAVE BUT WHAT'S IN THAT MANUAL ARE CLARITY ON DENSITY RIGHTS AND WORKFORCE HOUSING. 
          WE'RE TRYING TO UPDATE THAT MANUAL BUT FRANKLY I KEEP PUTTING IT ASIDE WITH THESE TWO GENTLEMEN PLUS BECAUSE WE'RE WORKING ON OTHER THINGS LAND ACQUISITIONS THAT'S IT'S SELF-EXPLANATORY THE THE X POINT EIGHT AS MATT WOULD CALL IT ONCE THE ALAMO IS PLACE RATHER THAN SIMPLY ON BOARD WE KNOW WE NEED TO DOVE INTO MORE ROBUST TRAINING AND IMPROVEMENT OF DESIGN REVIEW BOARD PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF ALIGNMENT AS WE'RE REVIEWING SITE PLANS FOR SUBDIVISIONS, AS WE'RE REVIEWING THE DESIGN REVIEW BOARD OVERLAY DISTRICT PROPERTIES FOR APPROVAL AND AND I THINK X POINT 81.8 UP THERE SHARES THAT 1.9 IS IS OUR STANCE RIGHT OUR POSITIONING THAT WE STILL WHILE WE'RE FOCUSED WE'RE STILL VERY VERY FOCUSED POSITIONED REGIONALLY 1.10 COMPLETE THE FIVE YEAR REVIEW OF THE TOWNS COMPREHENSIVE PLAN THERE IS A REQUIREMENT IN THE STATE LAW THAT SAYS UPDATE YOUR PLAN TEN YEARS REVIEW AND ASSESS YOU DON'T HAVE TO UPDATE OR REVIEW AND ASSESS AND IF THERE'S ANY MAJOR FLAWS MAKE THOSE CHANGES . FIVE WHEN WAS THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN ADOPTED SIR? 2020 SO THIS IS THE YEAR WE PUT IN THERE THREE YEARS BECAUSE AGAIN IF WE ARE UPDATING THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN I'M GOING BACK BACK UP A LITTLE IF WE ARE UPDATING THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN BRINGING YOU FORWARD MORATORIA AND LANGUAGE THAT'S NOT A HARD EXERCISE BUT IT'S A IT'S A LIFT IF WE ARE ACQUIRING LAND UPDATING LAND ACQUISITION MANUAL, UPDATING THE DESIGN GUIDE, UPDATING THE ENTIRE ALAMO, FINISHING THE DISTRICTS WHICH SEVERAL OF THEM ARE ON SEAN'S DESK AS A GOOD THE ONE DRAFT AND WHATEVER ELSE GO BACK A PAGE MAP I THINK GOT IT ALL AND THEN BRINGING FORWARD TO YOU THOSE PRIORITY AMENDMENTS I THINK THERE'S SEVEN OR EIGHT TOTAL WE'RE BRINGING YOU THREE OR FOUR AT THE NEXT MEETING IF WE TRY TO DO ALL THAT IN YEAR ONE THAT'S ALL WE'RE GOING TO DO IS. 
          YEAR ONE STARTS IN A COUPLE OF DAYS SO I JUST SET THE TABLE OH MR. ORLANDO WANTED US TO REACT TO THE LAND ACQUISITION MANUAL PIECE. OKAY. 
          I'M IN ALIGNMENT WITH THE WAY THAT EVERYTHING ELSE IS LAID OUT. 
          IT'S GOING 5 TO 8.10 AS FAR AS THE LAND ACQUISITION MANUAL IS I WILL ADMIT WHEN WHEN I FIRST ARRIVED I HAD CONCERNS ABOUT OUR ACQUISITION STRATEGIES. THERE WAS NOT A TOWN ON LAMB INVENTORIES TO SPEAK. WE NOW HAVE A DASHBOARD THAT HELPS US UNDERSTAND WHERE WE OWN LAND. YOU KNOW, WHAT WAS THE INTENT BEHIND I KNOW THAT THE CURRENT LAND ACQUISITION MANUAL HAS REFERRED WHENEVER WE ARE MAKING LAND PURCHASES AND IN THE SPIRIT OF NOT ADDING ADDITIONAL WORK TO YEAR ONE I THINK WE ARE VERY AGGRESSIVE IN OUR LAND ACQUISITION AT THE AND I FOR 1 A.M. SUPPORTIVE OF THAT. OKAY BECAUSE I THINK ONE OF THE 
          [01:40:05]
WAYS THAT WE CURB DEVELOPMENT AND PRESERVE OUR CHARACTER IS ON THE DIRT THAT WAY YOU DON'T HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT SOMEBODY ELSE TAKING YOU SOMEWHERE YOU DON'T WANT TO GO SO FOR DISCUSSION PURPOSES AS REACTION TO X COIN THEY THANK YOU I WOULD BE COMFORTABLE WITH YOU MOVING THAT TO THE OUTER YEARS TOO SO THAT STANCE LOOSENS UP CAPACITY ON THE I THINK YOU AND THE MARINERS TO LOOK AT ME REGARDING THIS BECAUSE I'M THE PERSON WHO'S PUSHING IT SO AND THE REASON I'M PUSHING THAT YES WE DO HAVE A LAND MANAGEMENT STRATEGY DOCUMENT THAT HASN'T BEEN UPDATED IN SOME TIME AND NOW WE'RE LOOKING AT NEW STRATEGIES THAT WE HAVEN'T REALLY DOCUMENTED WHAT OUR POLICY IS IN REGARDS TO THAT YOU KNOW AS WE ARE LOOKING DEVELOPMENT RIGHTS AND THAT TYPE OF THING I THINK WE NEED TO WHAT OUR POSITION IS. 
          SO I'M VERY POLICY FOCUSED AS ARE MAKING MONETARY DECISIONS AND FINANCIAL DECISIONS USING TAXPAYER DOLLARS THAT WE SHOULD HAVE A POLICY. SO THAT'S WHERE I STAND ON THAT BUT THE THING I WOULD ADD AS WE UPDATE IT IS LOOK AT THE TITLE ACQUISITION BECAUSE OWN PROPERTY NOW AND SOMETIMES WE'RE LEASING PROPERTIES SOMETIMES WE'RE CONVEYING AWAY AN EASEMENT AND SOMETIMES WE'RE ACTUALLY SELLING PROPERTY FOR A SPECIFIC PURPOSE. 
          SO I THINK WE NEED TO MOVE BEYOND TERM ACQUISITION AS PART OF THAT A AND A DIFFERENT ONE AND LET'S LET'S LET'S STAY ON THIS ONE ON 1.6 OKAY LET'S STAY ON THIS ONE UNTIL THEN 1.6 I REALLY OUGHT TO SAY THANK SO LET ME ASK SHAWN ON THE THE LAND ACQUISITION MANUAL IN TERMS OF A LIFT HOW HEAVY THAT IS. I THINK WE HAVE A GREAT FOUNDATION ON THE CURRENT MANUAL. I DO AGREE I THINK THE LAST TIME I WAS UPDATED WAS LIKE 2008. IT DOES PROVIDE GOOD GUIDELINES. IT WAS WRITTEN AT A TIME WHEN WE WERE ISSUING A LOT OF VOTER REFER ON REFERENDUM AND NOW WE'VE GOT SOME OTHER THINGS WITH THE GREENSPACE MONEY AND AND SOME OTHER THINGS. SO IT DEPENDS HOW MUCH DEVIATION COUNCIL EXPECTS AS WE MOVE FORWARD BUT I DON'T DON'T THINK IT'S A BIG LEFT BUT I DON'T WANT TO SAY THAT 15 TIMES THROUGHOUT TODAY. WELL I MEAN FROM FROM AN EXPECTATION OF COUNCIL HAVE A DOCUMENT READY TO GO BY THE END OF FISCAL YEAR 26 IS THAT UNREASONABLE. 
          I'LL JUMP IN AND SO IS IT UNREASONABLE WITH THE WORKLOAD THAT YOU HAVE? IT'S WELL CAN JUST LIKE HAVE A CONFERENCE IS THE WORKLOAD YOU ALL HAVE AND I, I CAN DO THIS NEXT SATURDAY THIS IS WHAT I'M GETTING TO MARK IS IS WHAT WHEN IT COMES TO US. 
          YES. RIGHT. SO SO LET'S LET'S DO THIS FOR SECOND TAKE A LOOK AT MASS DRIVING. BUT IF WE LOOK AT ACTION AND I THINK THIS IS THE CONVERSATION THAT MAY HELP US AS WE KIND OF GET THROUGH THIS GOAL WHATEVER WE HAVE SO FAR NOW 11 ITEMS UNDER THIS FIRST DISCUSSION ITEM THAT'S 11 MONTHS OF ONE ITEM A MONTH ON YOUR AGENDA. SO WHAT I THINK WE HAVE TO REALLY PAY ATTENTION TO BASED IT THE WAY IT'S IT'S BAKED RIGHT NOW THERE'S FOUR ABSOLUTES THAT DON'T SEE SUNLIGHT NEXT JULY THAT'S OKAY THOSE WOULD BE A COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AMENDMENT BY LAYERING SOME MAPPING IN THE IN THE GROWTH OR IN THE LAND USE ELEMENT WHICH WE ALL CRAVE ESPECIALLY IN THIS PRICE IS RIGHT WHEN WE WHEN WE SHOW EVERYONE WHAT WE THINK WE HEARD OR WHAT WE THINK PROJECT AS A FUTURE LAND USE THAT IS A LOT OF WORK TO DO. 
          WE ARE NEVER GOING TO PUT SOMETHING ON TABLE THAT ALL SEVEN OF YOU COMPLETELY AGREE WITH AND WE GET RIGHT THE FIRST TIME THAT'S GOING TO TAKE SOME WORK SO THAT COMPREHENSIVE PLAN IS A LIVE SO WE'RE SAYING YEAR ONE WE'RE SAYING THE DISTRICT PLANS WHICH WE ADOPTED A MID ISLAND DISTRICT PLAN WITH A LOT LESS EFFORT IN THE PAST. THE DISTRICT PLANS THOUGH DRIVE THE FUTURE LAND USE MAP SO THAT'S YOU'RE ONE OF THE ONES THAT THAT BLEND INTO YEAR TWO OR BEYOND RIGHT IF THIS IS YEAR ONE STARTING IN A COUPLE OF DAYS THE AMOUNT WE'RE GOING TO WRITE THE ALAMO. WRITING THE ALAMO IS THE EASY PART UNDERSTANDING IT AND ADOPTING IT NEEDS TO BE THE TIME WE ARE IN THE COMMUNITY WITH THE DOCUMENT HEARING THAT FEEDBACK WITH YOUR FEEDBACK SO THAT IS GOING TO BLEND PAST THAT YEAR. 
          [01:45:05]
TOWN CODE AMENDMENTS IT'S INTERESTING IF WE WANT TO GIVE A PARKING TICKET HAVE TO CHANGE THE CODE . IF WE WANT TO GIVE A TICKET FOR LITTERING OUT OF THE BACK OF YOUR TRUCK WE HAVE TO CHANGE THE CODE ALMOST EVERYTHING THAT WE'RE FACED WITH HERE FROM A CAPACITY STANDPOINT RIGHT #20 EVERYTHING IN OUR CODE NEEDS TO BE UPDATED THAT WILL TAKE SOME TIME BUT SO WE'RE PRIORITIZING THOSE ALMOST AS A REACTIVE NECESSITY RIGHT NOW. 
          OKAY. DESIGN GUIDE THAT THAT'S GOING TO TAKE US A MINUTE. 
          WE CAN'T ADOPT THE DESIGN GUIDE UNTIL WE ADOPT THE ALAMO EVEN THOUGH WE CONTINUE TO HAVE THE RV APPLICATION SIGNS THAT NOT EVERYBODY'S ALIGNED ON ESPECIALLY BIG HOUSES, SMALL LOTS LITTLE SETBACKS AND LET ALONE COMMERCIAL LAND ACQUISITION MANUAL ABSOLUTELY. 
          THAT'S NOT A BIG LIFT WE WANT TO GET THAT RIGHT. THERE'S GOT TO BE THERE HAS TO BE A MATRIX WHY YOU'RE MAKING THE DECISIONS THAT'S WHAT'S GOING TO TAKE THE LIFT RIGHT THE THE THE RUBRIC AS AS IT'S CALLED ADVANCING LAND ACQUISITIONS THAT'S AN ALL THE TIME TRAINING OUR BOARDS THAT'S THAT'S YOUR THREE COLLABORATING REGIONALLY THAT'S YEAR ONE GOSH I WAS ON THE PHONE LAST NIGHT WITH BEAUFORT COUNTY WE'RE CONSTANTLY DOING THAT IT'S. 
          IT'S ALMOST NOT A STRATEGIC ITEM BUT IF IT'S NOT IN HERE OUR COMMUNITY WILL LOOK AT THAT AND WONDER IF WE'RE BEING STRATEGIC REGIONALLY UPDATING THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN I THINK IT'S IMPORTANT BUT I WANT TO MAKE SURE WE KNOW THAT UPDATING IN THIS SECTION UPDATING THE LAND USE ELEMENT IN OUR MIND AS A STAFF IS MOST IMPORTANT CAN'T GET THAT. 
          WE CAN'T KEEP GETTING THAT ONE WRONG OR WE CAN'T KEEP NOT GETTING THAT ONE RIGHT. 
          SOUND LIKE AN ATTORNEY THERE? SORRY CHRIS. AND THEN THERE'S CONSIDERATION OF MORATORIUM. THERE'S THIS MUCH OF A SCIENCE AND AN ASSESSMENT AS ANYTHING. 
          SO IF WE LOOK AT IT MORATORIUM YEAR ONE LAND ACQUISITION YEAR ONE UPDATING THE COMP PLAN LAND USE ELEMENT YEAR ONE AND OVERALL DISTRICTS YEAR ONE AS A HEALTHY BOOK OF WORK AND THIS TIME IS RIGHT WE STRUGGLE BRINGING YOU LAND ACQUISITIONS BECAUSE WE'RE TRYING TO BE YOU KNOW BEHIND SCENES ALIGNED WITH POLICY TWO WE'RE TALKING ABOUT ACQUIRING DENSITY WHAT DOES THAT MEAN? HOW DO WE HOW DO WE ALIGN WITH THE GREEN SPACE MAP AND ALL OF THOSE CORE SO SO FAR FOUR THINGS IN YEAR ONE THOSE ARE EASY TO DO BUT WE STILL HAVE NINE MORE SO SO RIGHT NOW YES BUT WE HAVE NINE MORE AND ALL DEPENDS ON WHAT YOU SAY FOR THE FOLLOWING NINE I HOPE IT DOES DOES HELP AND AND I THINK IT'S GOING TO WORK MORE CONVERSATION TOWARDS THE AS WE GO THROUGH IT SO I'D LIKE TO MOVE ON FROM FROM GO A AND IF THEY'RE NOT ANY OTHER COMMENTS AT THIS TIME 1.9 I JUST WANT TO MAKE A COMMENT COLLABORATE WITH YOU FOR COUNTY AS MARK JUST SAID REGIONAL AGENCIES AND STATE PARTNERS TO ALIGN GROWTH MANAGEMENT AND INFRASTRUCTURE PLANNING AND I'M MAKING THIS COMMENT BECAUSE FOR THE LAST SEVEN YEARS OR SO WE HAVE WORKED WITH OUR PARTNERS AND WITH I THINK A DIFFERENT MINDSET THAN THEY HAD ANY PEOPLE THINK OF HILTON HEAD AS A CASH COW AS A DESTINATION TO DRIVE AS MUCH AS MANY PEOPLE TO AND THEY AREN'T INTERESTED IN OUR GROWTH MANAGEMENT THEY ARE INTERESTED INTERESTED OUR INFRASTRUCTURE PLANNING AS WE SEE IT WITHIN THE CHARACTER AND THE EXPECTATIONS OF QUALITY OF LIFE ON HILTON HEAD. AND SO I UNDERSTAND THE COLLABORATION BUT I DON'T LIKE THE WORD TO ALIGN GROWTH MANAGEMENT AND INFRASTRUCTURE PLANNING BECAUSE THEIR EXPECTATIONS AND MY MIND AS WE'VE SEEN WITH THE BRIDGE AND THE CORRIDOR IS NOT ALIGNED WITH WHAT THIS THIS TOWN WANTS AND EXPECTS. 
          SO I DON'T KNOW HOW WE CHANGE THAT OR WORK WITHIN THAT BUT I WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT IT'S NOT PERCEIVED AS BEING WE ARE HERE LISTENING TO THE COUNTY AND OTHER AGENT REGIONAL TELLING US WHAT TO EXPECT. I OFTEN HEAR AS MOST OF ALL OF US DO WELL YOU HAVE TO PREPARE FOR WHAT'S HAPPENING ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE BRIDGE THEY'RE BUILDING ALL THE WAY OUT TO 95 AND THIS IS THEIR BEACH WELL THIS WHOLE SOUTH CAROLINA BEACH IS EVERYONE'S BEACH. THAT IS ABSOLUTELY TRUE. BUT IT'S OUR TOWN AND THEY'RE INFLUENCING HOW OUR TOWN WILL LOOK AND BEHAVE AND WHAT OUR QUALITY OF LIFE FOR OUR RESIDENTS ARE GOING TO BE. AND THAT HAS TO BE THE FIRST THING THAT WE WE PUT AS A 
          [01:50:02]
PRIORITY AND THAT WE STICK FIRM TO AS WE REPRESENT THE 37 OR WHATEVER THE NUMBER IS THOUSAND PEOPLE WHO LIVE ON HILTON. IF WE DON'T DO THAT THEN THEN THERE'S NO REASON TO BE DOING SO. I DON'T LIKE THE WAY THIS IS WORD IS REALLY WHAT I'M TRYING TO GET AND THOSE ARE THE REASONS WHY I DON'T LIKE THE LINE. 
          OUR GROWTH MANAGEMENT WE DRIVE THAT TRUCK WELL THAT'S OUR CRUISE MAN AND I IT'S AS SIMPLE AS AS SIMPLE AS PART IS TO ALIGN ITS PARTNERS TO PROTECT CHARACTER THROUGH MAN IS MANAGING GROWTH I MEAN IT'S THE SAME WHAT THE TITLE IS RIGHT IT'S MANAGED GROWTH AND GROWTH THAT'S A GOOD WAY TO PUT IT MAYOR IT'S TO PROTECT PARTNERS, TO PROTECT THE GROWTH MANAGEMENT AND INFRASTRUCTURE AND ITS GROWTH WELL I'M OKAY WITH THAT SO SOMETHING IN THAT REALM YEAH TO PROTECT SOMETHING IN THAT REALM WORDSMITH IT YOU CAN WORDS THAT AS LONG AS A LINE COMES OUT OF IT ON TIME YEAH YEAH AND JUST POINT YOUR ATTENTION TO THE KPIS UP ON THE PAGE AS A TEAM BELIEVE THAT THESE WILL HELP US TOWN COUNCIL STAFF COMMUNITY MEASURE OUR SUCCESS AND WHAT WE WILL USE THESE FOR AND IT'S AND I'VE EXPLAINED AS WE'VE TALKED ABOUT THIS IS TO EMBED THESE KPIS THESE MEASUREMENT STATEMENTS INTO OUR ANNUAL REPORT DOESN'T MEAN THE ONLY THING WE WILL MEASURE IS NOT THE ONLY THING WE'LL REPORT ON. 
          THERE'S A LOT OF SUCCESS AND, THERE'S A LOT OF THINGS WE NEED TO KEEP LEARNING FROM. 
          BUT THESE ARE IF WE THINK REFLECT THE MOST SO OKAY I CAN BANG ON THE KPIS AND I THINK THE ONLY KPI COMMENT IS THAT I DON'T LIKE PERCENTAGE OF APPLICATIONS REVIEWED WITHIN ORGANIC CUSTOMER SERVICE TIME BECAUSE I THINK THAT'S OKAY AT A DEPARTMENTAL LEVEL BUT I DON'T WANT US TO SPEED UP LOOKING AT APPLICATIONS ESPECIALLY WHEN DON'T LIKE A LOT THEM. SO I WOULD STRIKE THIS WHY DOESN'T THE APPROVAL RATE DO IS YOU I GUESS STANDARDS AND I MAINTAIN ARGUMENT I THINK IT IS ACTUALLY A VERY VALID ASPECT BECAUSE WE'RE TALKING ABOUT BEING A CUSTOMER SERVICE ORIENTED BUSINESS IS MAKING CERTAIN THAT APPLICATIONS ARE PROCESS TIMELY AND AND IF WE'RE LOOKING AT OUR PULL THROUGH RATE HOW QUICKLY SOMEBODY GETS A DENIAL IS JUST AS IMPORTANT AS HOW QUICKLY SOMEBODY GETS AN APPROVAL SO I THINK IT NEEDS TO STAY IN THERE BECAUSE I THINK IT HELPS DRIVE DRIVES THE DAILY BUSINESS AND IT'S AN INTERESTING METRIC THAT I DON'T THINK IT PROTECTS OUR ONLINE CHARACTER ALL OH I HANG UP BEFORE WE GO TO THE NEXT GOAL I'M GOING TO ASK THE PUBLIC IF THEY HAVE ANY COMMENTS ON THIS . I KNOW WE DIDN'T HAVE ANYBODY SIGN UP BUT DOES ANYBODY YOU KNOW WE HAVE 3 MINUTES. DOES ANYBODY LIKE TO HAVE ANY COMMENTS AT THIS TIME OR YOU SAYING TO THE END WHAT HOW WE'RE FIGURE? YES, THAT MICROPHONE HERE JUST THAT'S WEIRD. RIGHT? RIGHT THERE. THAT'S WEIRD. OKAY KATIE HENDERSON HILTON HEAD PLANTATION SO DEFINITELY NEEDS TO BE LIMITED SEVERAL OF US HAVE ASKED FOR MORATORIUMS IN YEARS PAST AND NOT BEEN HEARD AT ALL AS FAR AS THE ISLAND CHARACTER I THINK YOU SHOULD ENCOURAGE DEVELOPMENT IN DILAPIDATED AND BLIGHTED AREAS REZONING, OFFER INCENTIVES FOR REDEVELOPMENT. I THINK THAT'S THE KEY TO THAT. THANK YOU FOR YOUR COMMENTS. 
          IF YOU SEND THEM IN TROUBLE WHEN YOU KNOW MY NAME COULD GO EITHER WAY. 
          MY NAME IS LINDA HARRINGTON INDIGO RUN. I HAVE NEVER UNDERSTOOD IN THE 14 YEARS I'VE LIVED HERE WHY NONE OF YOU HAVE CONSIDERED A MORATORIUM. 
          THIS GROWTH HAS GROWN EXPONENTIALLY JUST JUST DRIVE DOWN BY ISLANDERS BEACH. 
          THOSE TIMESHARES WHEN THEY ARE REALLY UP AND RUNNING WE ARE IN SUCH TROUBLE. 
          [01:55:02]
WHY NOT A MORATORIUM? I COULD THINK OF PROBABLY TEN REASONS TO HAVE ONE AND I CAN THINK OF ONE REASON NOT TO HAVE ONE. SMILE. 
          THANK YOU. 2000 OTHER. THE OTHER. 
          ALL RIGHT, LET'S GO ON TO GOAL NUMBER B. OH, YEAH. 
          OH NO. I THINK BACK UP AND RUNNING ALL THE AFTERNOON. 
          SURE. BUT I'M GOING TO ASK COUNSEL IF WE CAN FOCUS ON, YOU KNOW, THE GOALS, THE STRATEGIES THE KPIS AT THE MINUTIA, THE ACTUAL POLICIES BECAUSE WE'VE GOT A LOT OF THINGS TO COVER . AL OR I'LL START OUT I LIKE THEM ALL. 
          NO COMMENT. I'MA HOLD YOU TO THAT BUT I'M JUST. 
          SO WE ARE HERE AT THIS ONE. I DON'T GO BACK. ALL RIGHT. 
          I I DON'T WANT TO. ALL RIGHT. IT HAS CORNER STREETS. 
          THIS ONE IS VERY STRONG OR CRITICAL INFRASTRUCTURE NEEDS IMPROVE QUALITY OF LIFE 25 VALLEY BY INVESTING IN OUR CORRIDORS AND VISION NETWORK INTEGRATING OUR RESILIENCE OUR INFRASTRUCTURE STATE SAFE FIBER ACCESSIBLE AND ON THE LOUISVILLE PARKWAY GATEWAY AND OR A COMPETITIVE NAME ODDS ISSUES WITH ITEMS 133. IF THERE IS AN OPPORTUNITY TO PROVIDE CLARITY GIVEN WHERE WE ARE THE FACT THAT COUNTY HAS TAKEN OVER THE PROJECT WITH THE BRIDGE THEY JUST RECEIVED FUNDING FROM THE STIBBE AND AND SO IS IS THERE AN OPPORTUNITY TO RE CLARIFY AND THEN WE NEED TO FOCUS ON OUR CORRIDOR PIECE ON THE ISLAND SO IT'S JUST A MATTER OF MAKING THAT CLEARER BECAUSE I DON'T THINK IT'S CLEAR. 
          YEAH AND. MARK, IF YOU WOULD JUST KIND OF ADDRESS THAT REAL QUICK ABOUT, YOU KNOW, A RESOLUTION COMING FORTH IN THE NEXT COUPLE OF MONTHS AS TO WHERE WE STAND WITHIN A OR SEAN WITH WHAT WHAT OUR GOALS ARE FOR THAT CORRIDOR ON CHARGES WAS PRETTY HE WANTS TO ADDRESS THAT HE'S BEEN CALL PROJECT POINT ON THIS PROJECT FOR A LONG TIME SO YEAH SO THE ACTION OF THE SOUTH CAROLINA TRANSPORTATION INFRASTRUCTURE BANK YESTERDAY IN SUPPORT OF THE THE RESOLUTIONS UP BY WHICH WOULD EXECUTE THE THE NEW COMPLETE EASTBOUND CONNECTION BUT WHAT IT DOES IS IT COMMITS ALL OF THE FUNDING INCLUDING THE $80 MILLION LOCAL REFERENDUM FUNDS TO THE PROJECT AND IF THERE'S ANY MONEY LEFT OVER THAT IS RETURNED TO THE SEB SO WHAT WE WILL FOCUS ON IS THE MASTER PLAN AND FUNDING PLAN FOR THE IMPROVEMENTS THAT WILL TAKE PLACE YOU KNOW BETWEEN WHEN WILL HARBOR OR JENKINS ISLAND THROUGH THE CROSS ISLAND AND SO WE HAVE HAD A LOT OF PREVIOUS COUNCIL DISCUSSION AND ACTION AND RECOMMENDATIONS THAT GUIDED A IMPROVEMENTS THAT WERE EXPECTED IN THAT WE'RE CURRENTLY WORKING TO REFINE THAT MASTER PLAN BUT COME BACK TO COUNCIL TO MAKE SURE THAT WE'RE ALIGNED IN THE MASTER PLAN ITSELF AND THEN HAVE A ENGINEERING OPINION OF PROBABLE COST AND DEVELOP A FUNDING STRATEGY TO MOVE FORWARD THAT THAT IS GOING TO INCLUDE SOME COLLABORATION COORDINATION WITH BOTH THE COUNTY, THE STATE AND OTHER AGENCIES LOTS IN PARTICULAR AS WE LOOK AT WAYS TO FUND THE IMPLEMENTATION PROJECTS THAT ARE NEEDED TO IMPROVE SAFETY MOBILITY ACCESS AND AND CAPACITY OF THAT SYSTEM TO HAVE A PRELIMINARY TIMELINE IS TO GO A MASTER PLAN SO. WE PLAN TO BRING A MASTER PLAN TO YOU WE TALKED ABOUT SEPTEMBER OCTOBER TO HAVE THE BEFORE BEFORE TOWN COUNCIL. WE'VE ALSO COORDINATED WITH SENATOR DAVIS ABOUT STATE FUNDING CYCLE AND AND THEY GO BACK UNDER DISCUSSION IN JANUARY AND SO I WOULD LIKE TO DELIVER TO THEM WHAT WE HAVE ALIGNED AND COUNCIL TO EXECUTE LATER BY END OF YEAR YOU YEAH SO SO WHERE IS THERE FUNDING WHERE IS THE ENDING AT THIS 
          [02:00:10]
POINT WHAT AND WHAT LOCATION WHAT WHAT'S THE POINT IS IT ONE MORE HARBOR WHERE WHERE IS THIS FUNDING ENDING FOR THE PROJECT THAT WAS JUST APPROVED YEAH SO IT'LL INCLUDE THE IT'S BASICALLY A BRIDGE PROJECT AND THE OTHER INFRASTRUCTURE NEEDED TO IMPLEMENT IT WHICH WILL INCLUDE THE ACCESS ROAD THE HOG ISLAND AND MARINERS. SO IT'LL GO ALL THE WAY THROUGH THAT TO THE WINDMILL HARBOR BECAUSE THAT NEW ACCESS ROAD WILL HAVE CONNECTIONS TO THAT TO THAT AREA ALL THE EXPENSE THAT WORK IS ON THE COUNTY AND THE STATEMENTS WITHIN THE CURRENT PROJECT BUDGET WAS PROPOSED TO THE INFRASTRUCTURE BANK YESTERDAY. 
          HOW MUCH HOW MUCH LAND IS THERE BETWEEN THAT POINT AND WHERE THE TOWN'S LIMITS START WELL ACTUALLY THE TOWN LIMITS ON THE NORTH SIDE OF JENKINS ISLAND AGAIN WITHIN THAT AREA AND SO THERE'S OVERLAP THERE. YEAH AND SO SOME OF THE CONNECTION OR NEW NEW FRONTAGE ROAD THE HOG ISLAND WOULD HAVE WOULD IMPACT SOME OF TOWN OWNED PROPERTY THERE AS WELL. 
          SO THERE'S NO THERE'S NO PLACE THAT APPARENTLY I WANT TO BELABOR THIS. 
          I KNOW THERE'S A BETTER TIME FOR THIS CONVERSATION BUT I STILL CAN'T BELIEVE THAT THE 2018 REFERENDUM DOLLARS WHICH WERE SPECIFIC TO GO TO AS WELL AS QUITE SQUARE TO SQUARE SQUARE ARE NOW BEING TAKEN AWAY AND BURDEN IS BEING PUT ON THE TOWN AND SEEMS TO BE INCONSISTENT. I DON'T KNOW HOW IT'S LEGALLY NOT GOING BE CHALLENGED BUT I GUESS THE BASIS OF WHAT I WAS TRYING GET TO THIS POINT WAS WHETHER OR NOT THERE WAS ANY GAP BETWEEN WHERE THE ONLY PROJECTS GOING TO END AND THE EXPECTATION OF WHERE THE TOWN WILL TAKE UP WITH OUR MASTER PLAN NOT TO BE DIFFICULT BUT I'M NOT INTERESTED IN COVERING ANYBODY ELSE AT THIS POINT AFTER WHAT THEY'VE THE POSITION THEY'VE PUT US IN AND I BELIEVE THEY HAVE PUT US IN A POSITION BY IGNORING THE FULL INTENT OF THE 2018 REFERENDUM AND THE $80 MILLION THAT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE SPENT FURTHER ON TO OUR ISLAND THAT NOW WE HAVE TO FIGURE OUT WHAT TO DO, HOW TO FUND IT. I'M GOING TO ASK YEAH, IT'S A WRONG IT'S THE WRONG TIME FOR THIS CONVERSATION BUT MAY WE SHOULD REALLY HAVE THIS CONVERSATION. I DON'T DISAGREE WITH THAT BUT IF YOU CAN FIND THE TIME YEAH YOU CAN FIND THE TIME AND I REALLY WOULD LIKE TO TALK ABOUT WHAT BUT WHILE WE'RE TALKING ABOUT THIS THAT'S TO YOUR POINT TO POINT TO IT INCLUDES LANGUAGE ABOUT COMPLETE STREET PRINCIPLES I WANT TO BE REALLY CLEAR THAT I AM NOT INTERESTED IN HAVING THAT LANGUAGE IN GO BE AS IF YOU LOOK AT THE COMPLAINTS STREET PRINCIPLES THAT ARE OUT THERE THEY'RE NOT CONSISTENT WITH THE ISLAND CHARACTER THAT WE HAVE CERTAINLY THERE ARE ELEMENTS THAT WE HAVE ALREADY DISCUSSED AND ARE WILLING TO INCORPORATE BUT ENTIRE IDEA OF COMBINED STREETS SHOULD NOT BE PART OF OUR STRATEGIC GOALS OR ANY ACTION PLANS OR ANYTHING LIKE OR COMMENT ON THAT PARTICULAR PIECE OF I DO I SUPPORT MULTI-MODAL BUT I I'M NOT SUPPORTIVE OF COMPLETE STREETS THINK YOU'RE GOING TO TAMPA ACCOMPLISH THE MULTIMODAL THROUGH OUR PATHWAYS AND NOT NECESSARILY HAVE THAT ON THE US I'VE GOT SOME IDEAS ON I WANT TO GO BACK TO COUNCILMAN TURNER'S POINT ON ONE AS WELL IF IT'S NECESSARY BUT ELIMINATE ANY CONFUSION ABOUT WHERE WE'RE PUTTING OUR EFFORTS I'M UNDERSTANDING IT WILL BE WITHIN THE TOWN LIMITS THAT WE ARE GOING TO PUT OUR EFFORTS NOW NOT OUTSIDE OF THE TOWN AS FAR AS TO POINT B IS CONCERNED AND MOVING TO THE CAPE YEAH AS THE LAST ONE LEVEL OF TOWN AND COUNTY PRIVATE SECTOR INVESTMENT IN CORRIDOR PROJECTS I'M WONDERING IF IS NEED FOR US TO INCLUDE THE STATE BECAUSE THEY TEND TO HAVE DOLLARS THAT CAN HELP US ALONG THE WAY. 
          [02:05:01]
I KNOW YOU SPENT SOME TIME WITH IT IN EASEMENTS FROM THEM SO THAT WE CAN MOVE SOME PROJECTS ALONG MORE EXPEDITIOUSLY. UM I I IF WE IT OUT FOR A REASON I'D LIKE TO UNDERSTAND THAT BUT IT'S NOT JUST I'M SORRY I WAS WHISPERING A QUESTION TO HIM WOULD TAKE WHAT I HEARD THE STATE THIS LAST TOPIC OKAY MOBILE TOWN COUNTY AND PRIVATE WONDERING WHY STATE LETS YOU KNOW ALL OF IT I WANT JUST LOOK CAREFULLY AT WHAT COMES ALONG WITH THAT WITH REGARD TO STRINGS AND EXPECTATION AS WE HAVE FOUND PREVIOUSLY THAT WE GOTTEN INTO THINGS THAT WE CAN'T GET OUT OF OUR PREFERENCE IS THAT IT READS INTER-GOVERNMENTAL CALL LEVEL LAST WHICH IS A REGIONAL IN TERMS OF COMPLETE STREETS COMPLETE STREETS IS A CONCERN FOR THE POLICY BODIES A FAIR NUMBER OF THINGS. THAT'S NOT WHAT THIS PARTICULAR STATEMENT AS I READ IT SAYS IT SIMPLY SAYS TAKE INTO ACCOUNT THE PRINCIPLES THERE AND THOSE PRINCIPLES ESSENTIALLY MEAN THAT WE DON'T FOCUS SOLELY ON MOTOR VEHICLES, THAT WE DEAL PEDESTRIANS AND CYCLISTS AS WELL. SO I THINK IT'S PERFECTLY FINE THE WAY IT IS. I THINK EVERYONE'S BENEFIT FOR THOSE WHO AREN'T FAMILIAR WITH IT BEFORE WE APPROVE THIS DOCUMENT THAT WE GET A MEMO OR SOMETHING, SOME INFORMATION OR EVERYONE DOES THEIR OWN DUE DILIGENCE AS A COUNCIL AND MAKE SURE THEY UNDERSTAND COMPLETE STREETS BEFORE YOU VOTE ON IT YOU KNOW A LOT OF THINGS THAT I INITIALLY DIDN'T READ THIS AS ADOPTING THE ENTIRE FLEET STREET PHILOSOPHY FOR BUT I SAY THAT ALONG WITH THEREFORE CYCLE OF ACTIVITY WHERE APPROPRIATE AND WHAT WE SHOULD WE SHOULD BE NOT FOR FIVE YEAR I'M TALKING ABOUT THE OTHER QUESTIONS OR CONCERNS OF THIS OTHERS NO I DIDN'T SAY I OUGHT TO DO IT. 
          IS THERE ANYBODY FROM THE PUBLIC WOULD LIKE TO TO MAKE A COMMENT ON THIS WAS TO BE ABLE OKAY YOU'RE MY TIME OR FRANK I'M STILL HERE. FIRST OF ALL, THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR THE SYMPATHY AND ALL YOUR SUPPORT. WE'RE MOVING FORWARD I GUESS AND NOW THAT'S A VERY EXCITING JUST A VERY QUICKLY JUST A REMINDER THAT THERE IS A BEAUFORT COUNTY PAD MASTER PLAN THAT'S BEEN APPROVED BASICALLY BY ALL THE DIFFERENT MUNICIPALITIES AND THE COUNTY AND THE LANDS AND EVERYBODY ELSE THAT EXISTS IT'S BEEN AROUND FOR A FEW YEARS AND WE SHOULD TAKE ADVANTAGE OF IT TO KNOW IT'S THERE. 
          I WOULD SAY PROBABLY THE BIGGEST CONSTRAINT FROM ITS SUCCESS IS THE FACT THAT IT CAN'T GET EASEMENTS FOR PATHWAYS AND IT DOESN'T HAVE THE RESOURCES TO GO GET THEM AND SO IT JUST TAKES TIME AND SO IT GETS TAKEN TO THE CREATOR FOR YOU KNOW, BEING INCOMPETENT BECAUSE IT CAN'T GET EASEMENTS THAT'S ONE OF THE BIGGEST PROBLEMS THEY'RE GOING TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT THAT AND MAYBE YOU CAN HELP THEM. I WOULD SAY ALSO IT'S REALLY REALLY IMPORTANT START LOOKING AT EDUCATION MORE AND AND OUR PEOPLE WHO COME HERE A SPEED AND WE'RE THE PEOPLE WHO ARE DRIVING HERE SPEED ALL THE TIME AND WE DON'T HAVE ENFORCEMENT SO WE HAVE TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT THAT IF WE'RE GOING TO WE USED TO HAVE A LOT OF PEOPLE WHO WERE KILLED HERE. FRANKLY WE DON'T HAVE THEM NOWADAYS THANK GOODNESS BECAUSE I GUESS THERE'S SO MANY BIKES AND CARS THEY DON'T DO IT BUT WE'VE GOT TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT THAT EDUCATION IS REALLY IMPORTANT AND WE HAVE TO CREATE A PHILOSOPHY OF OF OF AN ATTITUDE ABOUT THE WAY YOU OPERATE YOUR VEHICLES AND BIKES ON THE PATHWAYS WE'VE GOT TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT E-BIKES. WE HAVE TO GO TO PHASE TWO. WE'VE GOT A COUPLE OF SMALL GROUPS PEOPLE WHO ARE CAUSING A PROBLEM. WE'RE GOING TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT THAT WE SHOULD BE AWARE OF THAT WE CAN PROBABLY HOPEFULLY HANDLE THAT. 
          WE SHOULD ALSO REALIZE THAT NCDOT HAS BEEN AS A IS AN ORGANIZATION THAT KNOWS ROADS IT'S THE ROAD PEOPLE THAT'S WHO THEY ARE THAT'S HOW THEY'VE BEEN BUT THEY'RE ACTUALLY CHANGING THEY'RE BECOMING A TRANSPORTATION ORGANIZATION AND THEY ACTUALLY COULD BE DOING SOMETHING THAT'S KIND OF INTERESTING. SO I WOULD MAKE SURE WE'RE ALIGNED WITH WITH THEM AND FROM THEM ABOUT WHAT THEY'RE DOING ABOUT TRANSPORTATION AS OPPOSED 
          [02:10:03]
TO JUST TRAFFIC. OKAY. AND I THINK YOU NEED PEOPLE TO GO UP THERE EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE AND FIND OUT WHAT'S GOING ON AND ENCOURAGE THEIR SUPPORT . AND I'D ALSO LASTLY I RECOMMEND CBC PIS CRACK THE CODE AND GETTING PEOPLE TO THE BEACH BY USING BIKES AND YOU KNOW WE HAVE HUNDREDS AND HUNDREDS AND HUNDREDS OF BIKES GOING ON THE BEACH AND IT WORKS. WE REALLY HAVEN'T LOOKED AT THAT SERIOUSLY. WE HAVE A FEW BIKE RACKS UP HERE THERE AND THE FOLKS ARE DOING A REALLY GOOD JOB ON MAINTENANCE NOWADAYS BUT WE'RE NOT DOING THE JOB WE COULD THINKING THROUGH A MULTI MODAL WAY TO GET TRANSPORTATION NOT JUST CARS FIGURING OUT HOW TO GET TO THE BEACH BUT ALSO LOOK AT SOMETHING ELSE LIKE BIKES. OKAY THANK YOU VERY MUCH AND GOOD LUCK TO YOU ALL. IT'S IT'S A BUSY RICHARD BUSY RUN AS YOU ALL KNOW THE BRIDGE AND HAVE BEEN UNDER STUDY FOR SEVEN PLUS YEARS AND AT THE RATE WE'RE GOING WE'LL PROBABLY LOOK AT ANOTHER SEVEN YEARS STUDY AFTER STUDY AFTER STUDY. THE TOWN AS YOU WELL KNOW, SPENT HALF MILLION DOLLARS PLUS ON A BIG STUDY RIGHT. AND WE DON'T HAVE A MASTER PLAN FOR THE CORRIDOR ON JANUARY 9TH. THIS TOWN COUNCIL DIRECTED THE STAFF TO DEVELOP A STUDY MASTER PLAN AND I HEAR FROM SEAN THIS MORNING THAT THAT'S GOING TO BE READY I GUESS SEPTEMBER OR OCTOBER HE MENTIONED AND THE 2018 SALES TAX REFERENDUM ABOUT $70 MILLION WAS ALLOCATED FOR THE CORRIDOR. WELL WE'VE LOST THAT MONEY BECAUSE OF THE ACTIONS OF THE COUNTY COUNCIL. THE TACTICAL WORKING GROUP OF WHICH I WAS A MEMBER SPENT A LOT OF TIME AND PROPOSED A LOT OF ALTERNATIVES MOST OF WHICH WELL ALL OF THEM SUGGESTIONS WERE PRETTY MUCH IGNORED BY THE CONSULTANT AND IGNORED BY THE TOWN LEADERSHIP. 50% OF THE TRAFFIC COMING ONTO THE ISLAND IS BOUND FOR THE CROSS ISLAND PARKWAY AND YET THERE'S NOT AN EASY ACCESS FROM WHEN YOU GET OFF THE BRIDGE AT WINDMILL HARBOR TO THE CROSS ISLAND PARKWAY CAPACITY IS A KEY ISSUE. 
          I THINK I HEARD THAT WORD ONCE TODAY TRAFFIC CAPACITY AND TOURIST CAPACITY WE'VE GOT TO DO BETTER IN TERMS OF A CORRIDOR THAT WORKS AND NOT SIX LANE EXPRESSWAY THROUGH THE NORTH END OF THE ISLAND. THANK YOU. THANK YOU. 
          ANY OTHER COMMENTS? ALL RIGHT. AND THEN SPEED SPEED FOR UNDERSTAND JUST TO BE CLEAR OUR CITIZENS CITIZENS ARE OUR RESPONSIVENESS AND ABILITY TO RECOVER FROM FUTURE AND STRESSORS WEATHER, ENVIRONMENT, NATURAL DISASTERS ANSWER QUESTIONS ON ITEMS 134 AND SO NUMBER THREE ALL SEE I DON'T KNOW HOW WE'RE DOING THIS ANYMORE. GO SEE UM THE WAS ULTIMATE HONEST ABOUT THAT BUT BEFORE THAT'S FINISHED I THINK WE SHOULD INCORPORATE SOME OF THE ITEMS THAT I'M HOPING WE'RE TO COLLAPSE INTO FROM GO DEEP FROM WATER MANAGEMENT AND INFRASTRUCTURE SO. 
          THAT'S A QUICK COMMENT ON THAT . THUNDER 3.3 I THINK IT'S A LITTLE BIT ABOUT AND I THINK WE SHOULD BE TALKING ABOUT HOW WE INTEGRATE INTEGRATE BETTER. 
          [02:15:19]
YEAH I'M GOING TO COMMENT WE NEED FOCUS ON CHANGING THE PROPERTY TALK ABOUT THE RETENTION PROJECT OUR DOLLARS AND I THINK OF US HAVE HAD THIS CONVERSATION MAYBE ALL OF YOU KNOW IT OR DON'T I BELONG TO HILTON HEAD PERMIT ANYWHERE OR I'M OUT AND TAKE OUR SAND AND MOVE I'M FOR BEACH NOURISHMENT WE HAVE NO SAND FOREIGNERS OUT THAT WE NEED TO OH IMPORTANT CYCLE COMES AROUND THAT WE'RE ABLE TO DO SOMETHING COST EFFECTIVE OFFSHORE TO TRY TO RETAIN OUR ASSET PUT OUR MONEY IN A POSITION THAT FOR SO I WOULD ASK OF ALL I MEAN ON THAT IF THAT IS SOMETHING THAT GOES INTO THE INTO THE GOALS WOULD YOU EXPECT THAT TO BE ONE TO YOUR 1 TO 3 OR FURTHER OUT? I THINK IT'S SOMETHING YOU KNOW HERE WHERE I'M THE BEGINNING OF A BEACH RENOURISHMENT NOW AND THEN YOU KNOW WE'RE GOING TO BE LOOKING AGAIN IF I GET A STORM IT COULD BE NEXT YEAR BUT WE'RE LOOKING AGAIN 5 TO 8 YEARS FROM NOW TO DO IT AGAIN OUR NEXT CYCLE SHOULD BE 3 TO 4 YEARS THAT WE START LOOKING AT RETENTION OF OUR ASSET AND ACTUALLY PERFORMING SOME ATTENTION TO ARE YOU LOOKING FOR SOMETHING MORE EXPLICIT? WHAT'S IN YOUR POINT TO WELL OPERATIONAL PROPERTIES IS THE OH YEAH. 
          I MEAN I YOU KNOW IT SAYS 3.2 YOU SAID YES GOT IT IN EVERY FISCAL YEAR BUT IT'S JUST NOT I DON'T THINK THAT LANGUAGE FOCUSES ON I'M ACTUALLY TRYING TO DO DESCRIBING IT IF EVERYONE YOU UNDERSTAND I'M DESCRIBING BY RETAINING OUR ASSET I'M I'M SORT OF PLAYING THIS OUT BECAUSE I THINK IT IS CALLED OUT ON 3.2 BUT I THINK WHAT MR. DESMOND LOOKING FOR IS WHAT'S THE KPI IT RELATES TO IT. I JUST THINK TO HIS POINT WE NEED TO AT THE END OF ALL THIS UNDERSTAND PROS AND TO CONTINUE TO DO IT THE WAY THAT WE'VE BEEN DOING IT OR THERE'S ANOTHER WAY THAT WE SHOULD BE LOOKING AT IT AND TO ME THAT'S AN INDICATOR THAT WE CAN MEASURE OURSELVES ON. WE HAVE IN THIS DISCUSSION ON THREE POINT I THINK IT GOES JUST A LITTLE BIT FURTHER AND THAT IS YOU KNOW WHAT KIND OF SYSTEM CAN BE IMPLEMENTED OFF THE BEACHES TO MAINTAIN SAND AND THAT COMES THROUGH OUR CONSULTANTS SO MAYBE JUST A LITTLE BIT OF A CLARIFICATION WITHIN THAT THREE POINT TO ADD SOMETHING IN THERE SO THAT WE UNDERSTAND IT RIGHT AND THE PROS AND THE CONS OF AS TIME PROGRESSES YOU SEE WHAT WE COLLECT YEP AND ASKED IF THINGS GET SO EXPENSIVE THAT WE'RE NOT GOING TO BE TO CIRCUMSTANCES SO WE NEED TO RETAIN OUR BEACH AND GOOD THINKING ABOUT THAT AS WE KNOW WE KNOW WHAT YOU'RE SAYING WE'RE TRYING TO SAY WE JUST GOT TO WE HAVE TO WORDSMITH IT A LITTLE BIT I DON'T THINK AS SO AS AS IMPLICIT AS YOU KNOW THE MANAGING OF THE ASSET ITSELF WE ARE TRYING TO SAY THE LONG TERM AND TO US THAT MEANS MORE OF THE SAME MIGHT MIGHT BE A LOT MORE FUNDING IN THE FUTURE THAT MIGHT NOT BE AFFORDABLE SUSTAINABLE THERE ARE OTHER MAYBE MEANS AND METHODS LIKE LET US TRY TO WORDSMITH WE KNOW WHAT YOU'RE AFTER AND IF WOULD HELP US TO POINT TO TO BE BOILED DOWN INTO DOLLARS AND CENTS IT WOULD HELP US TO AS DIGEST TODAY HELP HELP US WITH 
          [02:20:01]
SOME WORDING TO LATER OKAY ALL RIGHT THANK YOU AS A COUPLE THINGS ONE NET AND 3.4 I SHOULD SAY MUNICIPAL CODE . SO THEN WITH REGARD TO WHAT CONSTITUTES RESILIENCE AND WHY IT'S SO IMPORTANT, WE HAD A WORKSHOP ON IN OCTOBER OF 2024 WITH REGARD TO THE RESILIENCE PLAN THERE WAS A REQUEST FOR A PROPOSAL. WE DID LOOK AT THE THAT REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL WHAT THE SCOPE OF WORK WAS THAT WAS REVIEWED LAST YEAR BEFORE THE RFP WENT OUT AND IF YOU LOOK AT THE TABLE OF CONTENTS IT'S VERY HELPFUL TO SEE INCLUDED IN THE RESILIENCE PLAN. IN ADDITION WERE WORKSHOPS THERE WAS ALSO TWO OPEN HOUSES HELD WITHIN THE LAST YEAR ON THE RESILIENCE PLAN WHERE THE CONSULTANT ZUBERI CAME AND LISTENED TO THE PUBLIC AND HAD MAPS AND DISPLAYS ABOUT INFORMATION ON RESILIENCE AND THOSE WERE FAIRLY WELL ATTENDED. SO THAT'S WHERE I WOULD LOOK I'M JUST LOOKING AT IF YOU WANT TO I'M LOOKING AT MY CELLPHONE IS BECAUSE I BROUGHT IT TO BE ABLE TO LOOK AT THE TOWN'S WEBSITE SO IF YOU GOOGLE THE WORD OR SORRY SEARCH WE DON'T USE GOOGLE ON OUR WEBSITE IF YOU SEARCH FOR THE TERM RESILIENCE YOU'LL SEE A LINK TO A LOT OF THOSE WOULD BE VERY HELPFUL AND PERHAPS AS REQUESTED. 
          SO NOW THE STAFF REPORT FROM THE OCTOBER THE DEFINITION OF RESILIENCE AND WHAT'S INCLUDED IN OUR RESILIENCE THAT WOULD BE HELPFUL FOR UNDERSTANDING BUT THIS DOES NEED TO BE TO REMAIN AS A KEY GOAL IN MY BOOK I'M JUST GOING TO GO TO THERE WAS DISCUSSION WHEN WE FIRST STARTED TODAY WITH REGARD TO ALL OF THAT BEEN SAID HOW WE INTEGRATE PERHAPS THE NEXT GOAL INVEST IN STORM WATER MANAGEMENT INFRASTRUCTURE INTO THE RESILIENCE BECAUSE IT TO ME IT SEEMS AS THOUGH AND IT SOUNDED LIKE TO OTHERS SEEMED AS THOUGH IT'S REALLY ONE EFFORT AND SO IT COULD BE COLLAPSED AND IT COULD BE INTEGRATED AND SO I SEE AS 3.1 THE RESILIENCE PLAN AND YES THERE'S ALL OF THAT BUT DON'T SEE THAT AS REALLY INCORPORATING SOME OF THE THINGS THAT TODAY AS A PRACTICAL MATTER ARE ISSUES THAT WE'RE DEALING ACROSS THE ISLAND WHICH HAVE TO DO WITH STORMWATER. 
          AND SO THEREFORE I WOULD REQUEST AS I HEARD THAT WE JUST THAT WE LOOK AT HOW WE INTEGRATE THE TWO IF YOU MOVE ON TO THE NEXT ONE I DON'T WANT TO GET AHEAD OF OURSELVES 4.4 IS PREPARE AN ISLAND WIDE STORMWATER MASTER PLAN SHOULDN'T THAT BE 4.1 IF IT WERE TO STAY INDEPENDENT OR SHOULDN'T THERE BE AN EFFORT THAT IT'S WORKED ON WITHIN THE RESILIENCY OR THE RESILIENCY PLAN WITHIN THE STORMWATER PLAN HOWEVER WANT TO PUT IT JUST SEEMS TO ME THAT THERE'S WORK TO BE DONE ALONG THOSE LINES AND I THOUGHT THAT'S WHAT SOME OF WHAT WE WANTED TO TALK ABOUT HERE TODAY IF I MIGHT YOU KNOW WHAT I WANT TO WHATEVER YOU KNOW SOME OF THESE STOOD OUT TO ME IS THEY NEEDED TO HAVE THE ROOM BECAUSE THEY ARE SO IMPORTANT AS I'M LOOKING AT THIS RIGHT NOW, COULD IT BE REINFORCED ISLAND RESILIENCE AND STORMWATER INFRASTRUCTURE INVESTMENT BECAUSE THERE ARE A LOT OF TIES BACK AND FORTH BETWEEN THESE TWO AND PUT THEM INTO ONE. I'M JUST I'M THROWING SOMETHING OUT THERE FOR FOR CONSIDERATION AND DISCUSSION VERY TWO IMPORTANT ASPECTS THAT WILL BE ASK OKAY I'M ASKING FOR LOOKING FOR YEAH IT PASSES LITERALLY FOR WATER AND YOU KNOW AND YOU'RE APPLYING FOR LOT MASTER PLAN THAT LIVE AND SO YOU ACT TO THAT HOW THESE DOTS GOT FANNED OUT AND WHAT THEY'RE SO SURE ABOUT YOUR ABILITY TO SAY I WOULD HAVE RANKED STORM WATER NUMBER AND NUMBER FOUR BUT I'M NOT ME I'M NOT ME PERSONALLY SORRY AND HOW THAT THEN CHANGES THE WAY ARC THAT AFTERNOON WE'RE GOING TO ASK YOU KIND OF ABSORB THESE TEN AND THEN 
          [02:25:07]
THINK ABOUT HOW THEY MIGHT BE COLLAPSED WE'RE GOING TO COLLAPSE AND THROUGH ALL RIGHT THE PLAN PERFECT AND I APPRECIATE THAT WE CAN SORT OF AFFORD THE MAYOR RECOMMENDED WELL BUT I DO WANT TO MAKE THE POINT THAT AS ADOPT A RESILIENCE PLAN WHICH I HAVEN'T SEEN THE RESILIENCE PLAN BUT WHEN I GO AND LOOK AT WHAT OTHER ENTITIES HAVE FOR RESILIENCE PLANS, THERE'S A LOT IN THERE. I MEAN IF YOU JUST LOOK AT THE FIRST PAGE THAT INDICATES WHAT ALL THE TOPICS ARE, IT'S MASSIVE. 
          SO I DON'T WANT TO LOSE SIGHT OF THAT BECAUSE IF WE ADOPT THAT PLAN THERE IS GOING TO BE A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF WORK THAT NEED TO COME WITH THAT IN THOSE OUTER YEARS OH AND I IS THAT THAT CATALYTIC DOMINO IS YOUR ESTIMATE ALIGNED WITH WHAT YOU THOUGHT THAT PLAN HAD TO BE IN ORDER AND THERE'S GOT TO BE A LOT I CAN GO AHEAD PERHAPS I WOULD REQUEST IF WE COULD OR I'LL GO DO THAT IF WE COULD COPY. THE TABLE OF CONTENTS THAT COMES OUT OF OUR SCOPE OF WORK BY THE RESILIENCE PLAN FOR US DURING LUNCH TIME AND HANDED OUT AND WE MIGHT COLLAPSE AND PRIOR TO THAT BE VERY HELPFUL BECAUSE SOME IS TEN POINT WHEN YOU LOOK AT RESILIENCE PLANS YES STORM WATER I'VE BEEN ADVOCATING FOR YEARS NOW FOR AN ISLAND WIDE STORM WATER SYSTEM BECAUSE WE NEED ARE NOT SO GLAD TO SEE THAT IN HERE BUT IN STORM WATER IS A BIG PIECE OF IT BUT ALSO THE BUILDING CODE IS THE WATER SYSTEMS ARE HOW WE RECOVER FROM STORMS IS AND I THINK IT WOULD BE VERY HELPFUL FOR US TO SEE THAT AS A RESILIENCE PLAN AND A REPORT BUT I'LL PUT IT UP ON THE WEBSITE OTHER DAY AND IT'S ON AND YOU CAN SEE OUR IMPORTANT IT IS BECAUSE AS I'VE SAID BEFORE IF WE DON'T HAVE A RESILIENCE PLAN I DON'T HAVE AN ISLAND ON IF YOU WOULD PREPARE YOUR MEMBERS OF COUNCIL JUST JUST BACKWARDS JUST A MINUTE BUT THERE'S A COUPLE NEW MEMBERS SINCE WE HAD SOME WORKSHOPS AND WE'VE HAD SOME OF THOSE COMMUNITY MEETINGS EARLY IN THE RESILIENCE PLAN WE DID HAVE THAT WORKSHOP OCTOBER COUNCIL MEMBERS ARE DOING A GREAT JOB SUMMARIZING THAT WORKSHOP I WILL PRESENT TO YOU AND BRING YOU A COPY OF THE CURRENT CONTENTS THAT WE ARE WORKING ON BUT FROM THAT WORKSHOP THE TOWN HAS COMPLETED THE SWOT ANALYSIS THAT'S THE BACKGROUND INFORMATION FORWARD AND DEVELOP THIS TABLE OF CONTENTS WE'RE ALL TALKING ABOUT OUTCOMES 100 TO YOUR POINT YES RESILIENCE PLANS ARE VERY COMPREHENSIVE THEY COVER A LOT OF DIFFERENT OURS IS A LITTLE BIT MORE FOCUSED ON NOT THAT WE DON'T GET INTO OTHER TOPICS BUT IS MORE FOCUSED ON INFRASTRUCTURE AND THOSE IMPACTS THAT THE TOWN IS RESPONSIBLE FOR AND CAN CONTROL. SO YOU'LL SEE THAT IN THAT IN THAT TABLE OF CONTENTS AND I'LL MAKE SURE TO PROVIDE THAT ALSO HAVING A WORKSHOP ON THIS TOPIC LATER THIS YEAR I THINK IT'S IN THE SUMMER AFTER SOME OF THE COUNTY STORMWATER WORKSHOPS THAT WE HAVE TO GO TO THIS YEAR OR TO COME ON THAT TOPIC THAT MAPS I JUST WANT TO POINT SOMETHING OUT WHICH WAS ALSO PART OF THE INITIAL DISCUSSIONS THAT WE HEARD EARLIER THIS MORNING GOING BACK TO THE DOT'S STORMWATER INFRASTRUCTURE OR INFRASTRUCTURE AND EMPHASIS ON STORMWATER AS IT WAS CALLED RECEIVED SEVEN GREEN DOES WHICH IS THE HIGHEST NUMBER OF GREEN DOTS AT ANYTHING RECEIVED ALONG WITH ASSESS AND REINFORCE ISLAND RESILIENCY. 
          WELL IT GOT ONE BLUE DOT WHICH MEANT THERE WAS ONE COUNCIL MEMBER WHO FOUND THAT AS A TOP PRIORITY IT ONLY RECEIVED IN ADDITION TO THAT BEING THE CASE IT ONLY RECEIVED THREE GREEN DOTS AND IF YOU RECALL GREEN DOTS WERE NOT LIMITED TO ONE HERE, ONE HERE, ONE HERE. 
          YOU COULD TAKE WHEREVER HOWEVER MANY GREEN DOTS YOU HAD AND PLACE THEM ON ANY INDIVIDUAL TOPIC. SO THE THREE GREEN DOTS DOES NOT NECESSARILY EVEN MEAN THAT THERE WERE THREE COUNCIL MEMBERS WHO WANTED TO TO EMPHASIZE THAT POINT BUT IT COULD HAVE BEEN ONE OR TWO OR THREE. SO MY POINT THAT TO ELEVATE AND ASSESS REINFORCE ISLAND RESILIENCY ABOUT INFRASTRUCTURE EMPHASIS ON STORMWATER IS IS IS NOT PROPER AND WE OUGHT TO WE LOOK AT THAT AND AS GOING TO DISCUSS COLLAPSING IT I WOULD 
          [02:30:02]
LIKE TO MAKE SURE THAT THERE IS A HEAVY EMPHASIS WHAT IT IS THAT THE MAJORITY OF SEEMINGLY THE COUNCIL WANTS TO FOCUS TIME ON WHICH IS IMMEDIATE IMPORTANCE STORMWATER MEDIA IMPORTANCE. SO ANYWAY THAT'S MY POINT AND THANK YOU FOR LISTENING FROM PUBLIC COMMENTS ORLANDO WANTS TO MAKE SOME COMMENTS AND I WANTED TO I WANTED TO HEAR THEIR BUT I GUESS I JUST WANT TO SORT OF PLANT SOME SEEDS AND IT GOES IN THESE ACTION ITEMS WERE EVENTUALLY TIED TO A BUDGET LOOK AT OUR BUDGET CURRENTLY WE HAVE A WHOLE FUND AROUND STORMWATER AND IT IS DEFINITELY AWESOME IMMEDIATE ACTION THAT WE HAVE TO TAKE AROUND STORMWATER AND WHEN I LOOK AT RESILIENCY IS OUT AT THIS TABLE I'M HEARING THAT MAYBE RENOURISHMENT IS ONE OF THE PRIORITIES WITHIN GENERAL. 
          OKAY AND THAT FALLS UNDER CFP A WHOLE DIFFERENT FUND. SO I'M SORT OF LOOKING FOR SOME GUIDANCE FROM STAFF AS FAR AS COLLAPSE OR NOT COLLAPSE AND THEN AGAIN I THINK THAT THE WHOLE RESILIENT PIECE IN MY MIND IS BECAUSE IF WE DON'T HAVE THAT AND WHOEVER IT RIGHT WE DON'T HAVE AN ISLAND BUT THE COMPONENTS THAT THEY COME WITH THAT I THINK WE JUST HAVE NOT EXPLORED THAT ENOUGH BECAUSE WE HAVEN'T LOOKED AT THE THE PLAN TABLE OF CONTENTS WE'VE HAD A WORKSHOP AROUND IT BUT I THINK THERE'S JUST MORE DISCUSSION AROUND RESILIENCY. 
          THERE MAY BE SOME OTHER THINGS THAT COMES OUT OF THERE THAT WE NEED TO PUT ON THE TABLE. 
          SO I WANT TO MAKE SURE IN ALASKA STAFF TO HELP US WITH THIS THAT WE'RE NOT IN AS A BOX IN OUR SELF AND IF WE COLLAPSE THAT'S SORT OF MY QUESTION AND I'M I'M I'M LEANING ON ON MY LAPTOP HERE SO FORGIVE ME FOR READING. I'M GOING TO BACK UP A LITTLE BIT AND TALK ABOUT RESILIENCE. RESILIENCE THIS IS NOT JUST STORM WATER. 
          HOWEVER THAT IS WHAT WE MUST FOCUS ON AS A BARRIER ISLAND THAT A LITTLE STORM SURGE COULD CUT OUR ISLAND IN HALF AND WE KNOW WHERE THOSE POINTS ARE, RIGHT? RESILIENCY REFERS TO OUR ABILITY TO ANTICIPATE PREPARE FOR, RESPOND TO AND RECOVER FROM DISRUPTION. SO THAT COULD BE A NAMED STORM . 
          THAT COULD BE A PANDEMIC. THAT COULD BE ECONOMIC THAT COULD BE ALL OF THOSE THINGS ABOVE AND BEYOND AND SO BEACH RENOURISHMENT OUR RENEW RE NOURISHING THE BEACH ONLY BECAUSE OF STORM WATER INUNDATION OR THERE AN ECONOMIC VALUE TO IT AS WELL RIGHT CYBER WE HAVE A CYBER SECURITY THAT IS A REDUNDANCY AND A PROTECTION AT LEAST OUR BUSINESS IS IS IT'S ALL GROUPED INTO RESILIENCE AND AND I'LL SAY THIS AS A TALL MANAGER I DON'T TRY TO STAY TOO INFORMED ON ALL THE LATEST AND GREATEST WORDS ON PAPER. 
          AT THE END OF THE DAY WE HAVE AN INCREDIBLE EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT PLAN. 
          WE HAVE AN INCREASED I.T LEADER IN THE ROOM WHO IS WELL VERSED IN THE CYBERSECURITY YOU KNOW SO FIRST THING TOM SUN CONCERNED HIMSELF WITH HE WHEN HE ARRIVED A FEW YEARS AGO IT WASN'T THE NETWORK IT WASN'T THE HELP DESK IT WAS IT WAS THAT PART OF THE BUSINESS SO ALL OF THESE THINGS THAT WE'RE INVOLVED WITH AND I WILL TELL YOU THAT WHEN WE TO THE BOND RATING AGENCIES AND NOT THAT THAT SHOULD DEFINE WHO WE AND WHAT WE DO BUT WHEN WE TALK TO BOND RATING AGENCIES AND ASK US ABOUT OUR RESILIENCY PLANNING AND IT'S NOT ABOUT WHETHER WE'RE GOING TO ARGUE IF SEA LEVEL RAISED ONE OR TWO INCHES OVER THE LAST HUNDRED YEARS IT'S IT'S ALL OF THOSE LAYERS AND WE'RE MY CONCERN HAS ALWAYS BEEN IS OF CONTENT RIGHT IN THE TABLE OF CONTENTS A RESILIENCY PLAN WE HAVE AND YOU ASK AND I'M TO WRAP THIS UP YOU ASKED FOR OUR OUR STAFF THE STAFF TO BRING FORWARD A RESILIENCE PLAN WHEN WE LOOK AT THE STATE BY SOUTH CAROLINA RESILIENCE MOST OF IT I SEE THEM SHAKING IT ASIDE MOST OF US JUST STORMWATER LOTS OF IT ISN'T SOCIAL ECONOMIC YOU KNOW SO SO FORTH. 
          WE'RE WE'RE HAPPY TO HEAR FIRST THINGS FIRST, RIGHT? THE STORM WATER PART OF A RESILIENCY PLAN IS IMPORTANT. THE TABLE OF CONTENTS ARE IMPORTANT THE WAY I READ THE 
          [02:35:06]
TABLE OF CONTENTS RIGHT NOW I HAVE A COPY FROM THERE'S AN ECONOMIC COMPONENT TO IT BUT THAT YOU CAN LEAN ON BECAUSE OF WATER YOU ALL HAVE TO PROVIDE THE CLARITY TO ME WE KNOW WHAT RESILIENCE IS AND IT'S NOT JUST WATER BUT IF YOU WANT TO DEFINE THAT AS CHAPTER THE MOST IMPORTANT ONE WE'RE HAPPY TO DO SO GET IT DONE A LOT QUICKER. 
          I WOULD SAY I RECOGNIZE THE SOMETIMES EMOTIONAL RESPONSE RIGHT AROUND FEW POINTS AROUND CERTAIN CERTAIN VOCABULARY. THE CRITICAL PIECE HERE IS IF DEFINING WHAT YOU MEAN AS A PASSIVE I JUST LOOKING THROUGH THE ITEMS SETTING ASIDE THE RESILIENCY THE RESILIENCE FEATURING NOURISHMENT IP FOR STORM WATER TRANSPORTATION OCEAN ALL THE FACILITIES FOODS TO TALK ABOUT SETBACKS FLOOD RISK REDUCTIONS AND SO FROM QUALITY OF LIFE CONVERSATIONS WITH THE STATE OF MISSOURI THE RATING SYSTEM MAKING SURE THAT OUR RESIDENTS ARE AN ASSET ON RIGHT NOTHING IN HERE TO ME THAT SCREAMS 180 DEGREES THE SO I'M FULL OF THAT BUT THE COLLAPSE CONVERSATION GOING TO BE CRITICAL IN THAT. YEAH. 
          AND MARK, I WANT TO ASK BECAUSE I THINK WE'RE WE'RE MIXING UP THINGS A LITTLE BIT RIGHT THIS FOR FOR FOR CONVERSATION PURPOSE IF WE MADE RESILIENCE WHICH IT SHOULD BE IN EVERYTHING WE DO THAT SHOULD BE THE BASIS OF EVERYTHING THAT WE DO RESILIENCE NUMBER ONE AND IN STORMWATER NUMBER THREE, GROWTH MANAGEMENT NUMBER TWO AND WE HAVE IDENTIFIED YEAR ONE THESE OF THE ITEMS THAT NEED TO TAKE PLACE WITHIN EACH ONE OF THOSE THREE IS IT DOES OUR CHOOSING TWO THREE OR HAVING A SEPARATE CATEGORY MAKE ANY FOR THE SCOPE OF WORK THAT WOULD BE DONE BY STAFF OR AND OF COURSE IT'S ALSO COUNCILS ANSWER YOUR YOUR QUESTION AND WE KNOW WHAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN STARTING JULY 1ST ALL OF THIS WILL BE IMPORTANT WILL WORK ON AGENDAS WITH THE COMMITTEE CHAIRS WITH YOU WILL BRING THE WORK FORWARD TO THE BEST OF OUR ABILITY I THINK WHAT MR. SIMON SAID EARLIER IS IS WHEN THE COMMUNITY'S READING WHAT NUMBER ONE IS IT'S IT'S YOUR IT'S YOUR FUNCTION IT'S YOUR IT'S YOUR STRENGTH I'M PARAPHRASING IT'S IT'S IT'S WHAT YOU'RE SAYING WHAT I'M HEARING YOU SAY THAT THERE MIGHT BE AN OPEN DIALOG TO HAVE TO PUT RESILIENCE WHILE VERY IMPORTANT IN IN EMBEDDED WITH WATER ALL OF THESE THINGS THAT WE'RE MEASURING WITH RESILIENCE ALL FACTOR BACK INTO STORM WATER THE FACT OF THE MATTER IS WE'RE STILL GOING TO DO THEM WE'RE NOT GOING TO NOT I THINK TODAY SHOULD BE MORE ABOUT ARE YOU ARE WE STILL FINISHING THE RESILIENCE PLAN ARE WE STILL GOING TO BRING FORWARD THE COMMUNITY RATING SYSTEM IN THE WAY WE DO AND USE IT ARE WE GOING TO THINK THROUGH THE BEACH MANAGEMENT THE ASSET MANAGEMENT OF SAND AND ATLANTIC OCEAN AS AS TOOL TO ADDRESS STORM WATER AND ECONOMY AND QUALITY OF LIFE I THINK I THINK FROM THAT PERSPECTIVE IT SOUNDS LIKE WE'RE GETTING THE ACTION ITEMS RIGHT. 
          IT'S JUST WE BUCKET ALL THIS BY ITSELF OR UNDER STORM WATER. I'M STILL GOING TO BRING YOU THE WORK. UNDERSTAND? THANK YOU. 
          IN GLASSES IN THE VERY BEGINNING DO WE NEED TO TAKE LOOK AT OUR VISION AND OUR MISSION AND AS WE IN THE FUTURE TAKE A LOOK AT DOES RESILIENCY BECOME PART OF THAT VISION AND MISSION? RIGHT. BECAUSE WE WERE IDENTIFYING IT IS SO IMPORTANT IN EVERYTHING THAT WE DO SO JUST TO THE TOPIC FOR THOUGHT I UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU'RE SAYING AND POINT IS IT'S BUILT INTO YOUR VISION TODAY FINDING THAT OUT BUT ABOUT IT WHAT ABOUT VALUES? ARE THINGS ARE EMBEDDED RIGHT I'LL BE QUICK ABOUT THIS I'VE GOT THREE THREE. SO ORLANDO BROUGHT UP A KEY FEATURE AND THAT HAS TO DO WITH OUR BOND RATING IN 2020 THE FINANCE DIRECTOR GAVE A REPORT ON BOND RATING AGENCY COMMENTS 
          [02:40:02]
FROM THE GEO BOND ISSUE SERIES 2019 SOLD IN APRIL 2019. HERE'S WHAT STANDARD POOR'S SAID ASSUMING ALL OTHER CREDIT FACTORS REMAIN STABLE, RECORD RAISE THE RATING OF THE TOWN INCORPORATES MORE COMPREHENSIVE PLANNING FOR POTENTIAL WEATHER RELATED IMPACTS INTO ITS LONG TERM CAPITAL AND FINANCIAL PLANNING GIVEN THE TOWN'S COASTAL LOCATION AND TOURISM. 
          BUT MOODY'S SAID ON SUSCEPTIBLE TO WEATHER RELATED EVENTS AND RISING LEVELS I CHURCHES SAID TO MITIGATE FUTURE STORM PRESSURES WE'VE ENJOYED GRAPEVINE RATINGS AND I THINK DONE SOME THINGS TO INCREASE THEM. I'LL CONTINUE ON THAT WE WANT ON AND I'LL MAKE THE COMMENT TO THAT IS THAT WE HAVE INCREASED RESERVE FUNDS IN THOSE AREAS AND NOW WE HAVE THE BEST RATINGS THAT WE CAN HAVE BETTER MAINTAIN THEM. 
          ABSOLUTELY. YEAH. STRONG IS WHICH ALIGNS STRONG TAKEAWAY THAT THE OBLIGATION AND PRIORITIZATION PIECE IS THAT WE'RE NOT NUMBER ON HONEST . IF I MIGHT GO BACK REAL QUICK AND IF THERE'S ANY PUBLIC COMMENT ON THAT PREVIOUS FRANK A TIME AROUND ABOUT OKAY I'M SORRY I TOOK A NAP WHEN I WOKE UP BUT WHAT'S RESILIENCE IS THE IS HOW A COMMUNITY RESPONDS TO A AN EMERGENCY A SERIOUS SERIOUS EMERGENCY ISN'T IT IS THAT WHAT RESILIENCE IS REALLY ABILITY RESPOND TO SOMETHING THAT'S REALLY BAD WHAT COULD BE REALLY WHAT COULD BE REALLY BAD IS IF 20,000 PEOPLE MOVE UP TO THE URGENT AREA AND PEOPLE GO TO WORK SOMEWHERE DOWN AND PLACES AND THEY DON'T COME HERE TO WORK AND. WE DON'T HAVE PEOPLE THAT SHOW UP HERE TO WORK. 
          WHAT ARE WE AS A COMMUNITY GOING DO? HOW ARE WE GOING TO SHOW RESILIENCE AS A HOW DO WE GET TOGETHER TO FIGURE THAT AND AND SOLVE THAT PROBLEM BECAUSE IT COULD HAPPEN TO US. WE HAVE TO BE RESILIENT. HAVE TO THINK ABOUT THAT. 
          I WOULD ARGUE THAT'S A PART OF RESILIENCE IS THAT'S ONE PART OF IT ALTHOUGH IT MAY NOT BE IN THE TOP HEADING IT COULD VERY WELL HAPPEN IF WE DON'T WATCH OUT. 
          THANK YOU FOR YOUR COMMENTS IMAM ON THIS ONE. OH THAT WAS I'M SORRY I'M GOING TO START FOR ALDERMAN STORMWATER MANAGEMENT TOP FIVE ITEMS HERE PRIORITIZE PRIORITIZE SEE IP INVESTMENT IN STORMWATER INFRASTRUCTURE AND OTHER UTILITY PROGRAM TO IMPROVE OPERATIONS AND SYSTEMS MANAGEMENT AND COMPREHENSIVE STORMWATER UTILITY ASSESSMENT HIGHLIGHTS OR MASTER PLAN ASSESSMENTS OR ANY DELIVERY MODEL TO SUPPORT PRIORITIES DEVELOP ON CONTRACT ACTIONS OR ISSUES AROUND ONE THROUGH SIX GET ON ON OR AT 14.1 PRIORITIZE CAPITAL PROJECT INVESTMENT IN STORMWATER INFRASTRUCTURE IS NOW WHAT WE'RE DOING AND KNOW I MEAN IS THAT WHAT WE'RE DOING TODAY TRYING TO PRIORITIZE THAT SO 4.1 I THINK NEEDS TO DO BECAUSE IT'S WHAT WE'RE DOING RIGHT NOW IS AT THE END OF THIS WE'RE GOING TO BE PRIORITIZING IT. OH I SEE THAT AS SOMEWHAT REDUNDANT PRIORITIES. 
          I KNOW, I KNOW I'M JUST JUST LIKE OKAY GREAT. YES WE ARE DOING IT. 
          I MEAN IT'S IT'S DEMONSTRATED IN THE BUDGET WE JUST PASSED. I THINK THERE'S BEEN A LOT DISCUSSION AROUND IT THAT WE ARE PRIORITIZING IT AND THERE'S BEEN LOT OF CONVERSATION AND A LOT OF CONCERN FOR QUITE SOME TIME. SO THAT'S REALLY, REALLY GOOD. 
          I DON'T REALLY HAVE TO SAY ABOUT THIS BECAUSE I SAID WE'LL TALK ABOUT IT LATER WHEN WE'RE TALKING ABOUT COLLAPSING THAT UP IN THE STRATEGY I DO AND WHILE I UNDERSTAND WORDS ARE YOU KNOW WORDS AND HAVE DIFFERENT MEANINGS I AM CONCERNED ABOUT THE WORDS I SEE 
          [02:45:04]
EMBEDDED IN A NUMBER OF PLACES IN THIS DOCUMENT THAT LEAD TO FOR INSTANCE EQUITABLE HERE I DON'T THINK THAT WORD BELONGS THIS DOCUMENT. I THINK THAT'S A WORD THAT WE HAVE SHOULD HAVE TAKEN OUT THOSE WORDS EQUITABLE PROGRAM SUSTAINABLE EQUITABLE, EFFECTIVE AND TAKE THAT WORD OUT AND YOU CAN FIND ANOTHER WORD THAT'S NOT AS CONTROVERSIAL I'LL BE PERFECTLY FINE WITH IT BUT IN TERMS OF THAT WORD IT SHOULD COME OUT OR AS YOU HAD SOME ERRORS A GOOD WORD THAT COMES TO MIND. SO A OF THINGS. 
          FIRST OF ALL I DO THINK 4.1 CAPITAL FUND PROJECT YEAR I WAS REALLY GLAD TO SEE THE EXPENSE OF OUR AGREEMENT OF A THAT WHAT WAS THE OF A STORM WATER SYSTEM OR DON'T HAVE A AND I'M REALLY GLAD HAPPY EXCITED TO SEE YOU PREPARE AN ISLANDWIDE STORMWATER MASTER PLAN I'VE BEEN ADVOCATING THAT FOR YEARS SO I'M REALLY REALLY GLAD FOR THAT AND I ALSO GIVE ATTRIBUTION TO ON STAFF LOOKING AT THE RATING SYSTEM THE THE STANDARD SYSTEM THAT MR. NELSON SHARED WITH US AT THE OCTOBER WORKSHOP MAKES ME FEEL VERY GOOD ABOUT HOW WE EVALUATE SYSTEMS AND I WANT TO GIVE ATTRIBUTION TO THE TOWNS FROM SO IT'S NOT A NUMBER ONE I THINK I THINK IT'S IMPORTANT THAT WE WE LEAVE THAT IN. UM AGAIN WE'RE TYING EVERYTHING TO OUR FISCAL YEAR BUDGET EXERCISES. I MEAN IT'S YEAR WE MAY OR MAY NOT HAVE NEW POLICYMAKERS AT THE TABLE. I THINK IT'S WORTH US DISCUSSING IT AS FAR AS KEEPING IT AS A PRIORITY BUDGETARY ITEM REALIZING THAT WE'VE BEEN BEHIND THE BALL SO LONG. OKAY. AND JUST ONE OTHER POINT THAT I WANTED TO MAKE ABOUT STORMWATER AND WE APPROACH IT. UM, MISS BECCA BROUGHT THIS BROUGHT THIS UP SO I WANTED TO SORT OF FRAME SOMETHING HERE FOR DISCUSSION PURPOSES LAST TIME WE ARE DEALING WITH A NEW STUFF A I DECIDE TO BUILD A SINGLE FAMILY UNIT ONE UNIT ON MY PIECE PROPERTY NEW CODES THAT MAY DRASTICALLY DIFFERENT FROM MY NEIGHBOR WHO 30 YEARS AGO THERE'S A GOOD CHANCE THAT MY WATERSHED IS GOING AFFECT MY NEIGHBOR MAYBE DIFFERENTLY THAN IT AFFECTS SOMEONE ELSE. OH AS HAVING THESE DISCUSSIONS AROUND OUR INFRASTRUCTURE NEED BECAUSE I COULD BUILD MY TWO NEW SPECS AND THE OUTFALL A MILE DOWN THE ROAD IS NOT WORKING NOW I HAVE CREATED A PROBLEM FOR MY NEXT DOOR NEIGHBOR. 
          OKAY, SO I'M JUST A FORMULA OF ONE PLUS ONE EQUALS TWO. THERE'S A LOT MORE INVOLVED IN THIS SO I THINK WHEN WE TALK ABOUT OUR GOAL AND OUR STRATEGY HAVE TO BE CAREFUL AS TO HOW WE ELIMINATE THE OPPORTUNITY TO HAVE DISCUSSIONS THAT MAY BE I GUESS MORE UH MY SPOT VERSUS OVERALL PLAN IS SORT OF WHERE MY HEAD GOES LISTENING TO SOME OF THE COMMENTS WHEN YOU LOOK AT STORM THE WORD STORMWATER MANAGEMENT, I THINK TALK ABOUT RESILIENCY. 
          STORMWATER MANAGEMENT IS STORMWATER RECOVERY. IF WE HAVE ISSUE OF A SURGE WE HAVE TO SOMEWHERE IN THESE ACTION ITEMS BE PREPARED COVER THE STORMWATER SYSTEM AND RECOVER THE STORMWATER SYSTEM NOT JUST GETTING THE SAND OFF THE ROADS, IT'S GETTING THE OUT OF THE SYSTEM SAMPLE NEW ORLEANS HAD AN OVERWASH DOWN THERE, PURCHASED 90 VACUUM TRUCKS AND A MILLION BUCKS APIECE AND TWO YEARS TO PULL THE SAND THE YEARS 90 TRUCKS 
          [02:50:01]
365 DAYS A YEAR TO PULL THE SAND OUT OF THE STORMWATER SYSTEM. 
          SO WE NEED TO BE PREPARED AND THE RESILIENCY SIDE OF THIS FOR RECOVERY AS MUCH AS ENERGY THE INFRASTRUCTURE UP FRONT AND I DON'T KNOW HOW WE DO THAT IN THESE ACTION ITEMS IT'S A MONETARY IT'S A MONETARY THING WHERE I MEAN WE'RE NOT GOING TO GO BY VACUUM TRUCKS PARKING BEHIND THE FIRE STATION. IT'S A SOMETHING TO BE THOUGHT ABOUT AND IT'S VERY, VERY, VERY EXPENSIVE UNDERTAKING AND AND THEN WHEN WE GET INTO OUR SYSTEMS THAT ARE SO OLD 60, 70 YEARS OLD YOU'LL FIND THAT WHEN YOU CLEAN THE SYSTEM THE SYSTEM DOESN'T EXIST. 
          THERE ARE NO PIPES SO ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU KNOW CLOSER TO THE BEACH WHAT WE THINK MAY BE INUNDATED IN A SMALL AT ONE HOUR CAN'T DO IT. WE NEED TO PRIORITIZE THOSE SYSTEMS FIRST, GET THOSE THINGS UP TO GRADE SO THAT WE CAN ACTUALLY MANAGE OUR RECOVERY BECAUSE THERE WILL NO RECOVERY BECAUSE THEY REALLY DON'T EXIST. 
          YEAH YOU KNOW 4.3 YOU KNOW IS WHAT NEEDS TO DONE WHICH IS IDENTIFIED AS ONE OF THE TOP PRIORITIES WITHIN THIS THESE ACTION ITEMS AND THAT WILL TO GIVE US THOSE KPIS THOSE ADDITIONAL KPIS THAT WE NEED TO UNDERSTAND WHAT IT IS THAT WE'RE DOING TO ADDRESS THOSE ISSUES. YEAH THAT SHOULD PROBABLY BE 4.1 RIGHT 4.3 BE IS THIS STANDS ALONE. WELL IT'S STILL IT'S IT'S STILL FISCAL YEAR 26. 
          OH NO BUT INTERESTED IN JUST IN TERMS OF IT'S NUMBERED HERE IF WE DON'T COME TO CONDUCT A COMPREHENSIVE UTILITY PROGRAM ASSESSMENT THEN WE WON'T KNOW THE THAT I THINK THAT STEVE WAS REFERRING TO. I ALSO SAW MIKE TURNER AND SOMEBODY ELSE WAITING SPEAK I'M SORRY AS HE BROUGHT UP THOSE STORMWATER AGREEMENTS AND THAT'S WONDERFUL FOR EVERY COMMUNITY OUTSIDE AND INSIDE THE GATES THAT HAS NOW A STORMWATER AND AGREEMENT. 
          THERE ARE A LOT OF COMMUNITIES AROUND THIS ISLAND DOESN'T HAVE ONE AND SO WE RELY COMPLETELY ON WHATEVER HAPPENS AND MOSTLY THAT'S NOT RELYING ON THE TOWN, IT'S RELYING ON THE COUNTY OR THE STATE BECAUSE OWN THE ROADS. SO I KNOW THIS IS AN ONGOING PROBLEM THAT BEAT BUT WE REALLY HAVE TO LOOK AT IT CAREFULLY THOSE ROADS THAT WE CAN DETERMINE ARE IN OUR BEST THE DOLLARS THAT CAN COME ALONG WITH THEM FROM THOSE WHO OWN THEM NOW WHO'S BEEN COLLECTING THE MONEY AND NOT DOING ANYTHING SO THAT ALL OF THE COMMUNITIES ON THE ISLAND HAVE SOME SOME PROTECTION HERE. NOW THOSE AGREEMENTS ARE GREAT FOR THOSE WHO HAVE THEM AND CAN HAVE THEM BUT NOT EVERYONE IS INCLUDED IN THAT. 
          ALEX'S WITH REGARD TO THE WATERSHED I GO 100% IN SUPPORTING THE IDEA THAT WE HAVE WE HAVE NOT CONSIDERED THE PERVIOUS IMPERVIOUS RELATIONS ON THIS ISLAND AND THE WATER THAT'S DRAINING OFF FROM A NEIGHBOR'S HOME ON TO SOMEBODY ELSE'S PROPERTY AND I CAN SPEAK FIRSTHAND ABOUT THIS SITS THERE AND CAUSES FLOODING WE HAVE PEOPLE HERE IN THE AUDIENCE WHO HAVE LIVED THROUGH THAT SITUATION AS WELL. SO THAT IS IN TERMS OF A PRIORITY OF AN MMO REWRITE THAT WE'RE WORKING ON BUT IT'S CAUSED ISSUES THAT ARE RELATED TO THE STORMWATER. SO YOU'RE RIGHT IT'S ALL INTEGRATED EVERYTHING BELONGS WORKS HAND IN HAND BUT THE SOONER WE FIX THAT BETTER OFF WE ALL WILL BE BECAUSE THAT WATER SYSTEM THAT STEVE TALKED ABOUT IN MANY CASES DOESN'T EXIST WE'RE FINDING THAT AROUND THE ISLAND AS THEY'RE DOING WORK SO I IN MY MIND, YOU KNOW GROWTH IS THE MOST IMPORTANT THING PERIOD BUT STORMWATER AND HOW WE RECOVER AND THAT MEANS RECOVER IN EVERY WAY THAT'S LISTED HERE UNDER RESILIENCE IS CRITICALLY IMPORTANT AND THAT'S THE REASON THAT I THINK THEY BELONG TOGETHER GOING HANDED HIM THAT'S WHAT ONE QUICK THING AND LISTENING TO MR. DESMOND'S DESCRIPTION ABOUT AFTER A STORM TRYING TO GET THE SAND OUT OF THE SYSTEM SO LOOKING AT 4.2 ENHANCED STORMWATER UTILITY PROGRAM IMPROVE OPERATIONS AND SYSTEM MANAGEMENT MAYBE ADD AND AFTER A STORM SO WE'VE GOT THAT IN THERE OPERATIONS AND SYSTEM SYSTEMS MANAGEMENT PARTICULARLY AFTER A STORM IS ALWAYS GOING TO HAVE THE OTHER IS ONGOING THAT'S MANAGEMENT BUT I THINK 
          [02:55:08]
WE ALSO OUGHT TO ADD AN EMPHASIS ON RECOVERY AFTER THE STORM SO TO IMPROVE OPERATIONS AND SYSTEM MANAGEMENT AND RECOVERY AFTER STORM I OTHER COMMENTS AND I GOT SOME SOCKS MUD I'M NOT GETTING COLD FEET ABOUT THIS MY ACTUAL FEET ARE ACTUALLY VERY COLD I PUT MY SWEATER THEM ALL RIGHT SO QUESTION FOR THE GROUP DO WE WANT TO CONTINUE TO NUMBER FIVE IT MIGHT BE A FAIRLY SIMPLE I SAY THAT BY THE TIME OR I NEED SOME I NEED SOME CLARITY FOUR OKAY BECAUSE YOU ALL HAD GREAT COMMENTS BUT BUT WHAT'S THE CONSENSUS OF WHAT WE'RE ADDING SUBTRACTING SO IF I COULD GO BACK A LITTLE BIT BASED UPON WHAT I HEARD NOT TOO COMPLICATED. I THE FOOD IS THERE BUT 4.2 AND 4.3 ARGUABLY COULD BE COMBINED. 
          WE COULD TALK IMPROVING OPERATIONAL READINESS AND RECOVERY. 
          WE COULD TALK SYSTEM ASSESSMENT AND PRIORITIZATION ABSOLUTELY. I UNDERSTAND WHAT WHAT WE'RE HEARING ABOUT SAND THE SYSTEM WE JUST SAW A LOT OF THAT IN FLORIDA. 
          SOME OF THESE COMMUNITIES ARE A YEAR LATER TRYING TO MAKE SENSE OF THAT. 
          BUT BUT FROM A STORM READY STANDPOINT POST STORM IS IS EVEN DEBRIS, RIGHT? IT'S TREES. IT'S DEBRIS DO HAVE THOSE PLANS IN PLACE. 
          I DON'T KNOW HOW TO MEASURE TO A DEGREE OF BEING OPERATIONAL MORE OPERATIONAL WITH VACUUM TRUCKS OR YOU KNOW, A DIFFERENT TOWARDS THAT WE HAVE EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT PLAN YOU'VE SEEN THEM ACTION YOU REALLY DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU'RE GOING TO GET TILL YOU GET IT FROM A STORM BUT STORM READY IS A LOT MORE THAN IN STORM WATER IT'S WELL YOU'RE RIGHT IT IS WE COME BACK AND REVISIT THIS AGAIN NEXT YEAR RIGHT. WHAT ARE THOSE KPIS COME OUT FROM SECTION 4.23. RIGHT. YOU KNOW WHAT NEEDS TO BE ADDED TO RIGHT BECAUSE WE'RE GOING TO LEARN A LOT MORE AFTER DO THE THE ASSESSMENT WE'LL HAVE A BETTER UNDERSTANDING AS TO WHAT THE ISSUES ARE WHERE THE STRENGTHS AND WEAKNESSES ARE RIGHT SO AS WE LOOK FOR THOSE KEY MEASUREMENTS, THE MORE WE LEARN THE MORE WE SHOULD EXPECT . THAT'S BACK TO YOUR POINT ABOUT COMPETITIVE TENUOUS EVALUATION, CONTINUOUS REVISION VALUATION, WHAT WE LEARNED FROM OUR PRIOR YEAR EFFORTS AND UPDATING THE PLAN APPROPRIATELY I THINK IT OUGHT TO BE MENTIONED TO TO THE POINT OF HOW DO YOU FINANCIALLY PAY FOR ALL OF THAT THAT WE ARE IN A REALLY GOOD POSITION THAT WE HAVE RESERVES SET ASIDE AND OVER THE YEARS RAISED THAT LEVEL TO AND WE'VE NOT ONLY RAISED THAT JUST BECAUSE THE MONEY WAS AVAILABLE AND THE CONSENSUS WAS THERE TO DO IT BUT WE ALSO HAD THE KNOWLEDGE AND THE INFORMATION THAT WAS BEING GIVEN TO US ABOUT WHAT DOES IT COST, WHAT IS THE PROJECTED INCREASES IN COSTS IF A STORM WAS GOING TO HAPPEN VERSUS LAST TIME WE REVISITED THIS AND DO WE NEED TO MAKE SURE THAT WE WERE KEEPING UP WITH THAT? SO I THINK WE'VE DONE A REALLY GOOD JOB IN PLANNING THE FINANCIAL RESILIENCE AND BEING ABLE RECOVER FOR STORM AFTER. MATTHEWS MATTHEW, I THINK WE LEARNED AN AWFUL LOT FROM THAT, BUT I DO HAVE A QUESTION IS THIS STORMWATER MASTER PLAN COMPREHENSIVE ASSESSMENT? DOES THAT INCLUDE EVERY NEIGHBORHOOD AND EVERY ACROSS THIS ISLAND? DOES THAT INCLUDE EVERYONE OVER I'M SAYING YES. I'M LOOKING AT STAFF. 
          YEAH, I'M LOOKING AT STAFF AS WELL BECAUSE OBVIOUSLY THAT WOULD BE THE INTENT BUT I WANT I KNOW THAT WE SOMETIMES ARE LIMITED WHEN SOMETHING HAPPENS AND IT'S A COUNTY ROAD AND IT MAKES IT A LITTLE BIT MORE DIFFICULT IT IS THE COMPREHENSIVE STORMWATER ASSESSMENT EVERY NEIGHBORHOOD THANK YOU THAT'S ALL AS LONG AS IT'S YES I'M GOOD AND LISTEN SOMETHING REALLY IMPORTANT I KNOW THAT EVERYBODY'S YOU KNOW AND I. 
          I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE WE'RE ALL COVERED . YOU NEED MORE CLARIFICATION FROM US BUT THAT'S ALL THINK YOU ALSO MAKE SURE THAT WE ASSESS ALL MY GIRLFRIEND. 
          YES IT'S LIKE YEAH SHE'S ALWAYS BEEN YOU KNOW HAVE ALWAYS HERE LOOKING AT SO MY PROGRAM AND WE'RE GOING TO HAVE A WORKSHOP TO GET READY FOR THAT A LITTLE MORE CLARITY OF WE'RE TRYING 
          [03:00:09]
TIME INVESTED FOR EVACUEE TRUST PUBLIC WORKS TEAM I KNOW I'M READY I'M I'M READY FOR THAT YOU KNOW WE'VE BEEN WE P KEEP EACH OTHER'S MICROPHONES ON TODAY WE'RE READY FOR THAT A MATTER OF FOCUS IT'S A MATTER IT'S A MAJOR MATTER OF FUNDING AND PRIORITY. 
          SO BEFORE WE GO ON ANY PUBLIC COMMENT ALL RIGHT. SO DO WE WANT TO GET THROUGH THE NEXT ONE REAL QUICK THEY'RE BRINGING THE FOOD IN THAT'LL. HELP US MOVE FASTER. 
          THE S AN ENHANCED SAFETY READINESS AND FACILITIES COMPREHENSIVE MODERN COMMUNITY DRIVEN PUBLIC SAFETY SYSTEM PROACTIVELY ADDRESSING EMERGENCY RESPONSE CODE ENFORCEMENT, PUBLIC SPACE MANAGEMENT AND LAW ENFORCEMENT NEEDS WAKING US UP THE ACTION ITEMS IN FRONT OF YOU HERE THE FIRST FIVE ACTION ITEMS QUESTIONS COMMENTS CLARIFICATIONS ON THESE SIR WITH REGARD TO 5.1 THE FISCAL YEAR SEVEN I BELIEVE SHOULD BE FISCAL YEAR 26. THE DRAFT WE SAW LAST WEEK HAD IT IN 26. 
          IT IS ONE OF IS THE NAMED ITEM HERE AS I UNDERSTAND WHAT WOULD BE INVOLVED IT ENTAILS AN OUTSIDE CONSULTANT RATHER THAN USING INTERNAL STAFF PROBABLY NOT AT A LARGE EXPENDITURE EITHER. WHEN I LOOK AT KEY INDICATORS IT WAS THE FIRST ONE THERE AND WE I DON'T SEE HOW WE COULD DO 5.3 UNLESS WE HAVE SOME IMPROVEMENT IN THE IN OUR PUBLIC SAFETY CAPACITY WHICH WE DON'T HAVE RIGHT NOW. SO I WOULD FAVOR A 5.1 FROM FISCAL 27 TO FISCAL 26 I THAT WAS ALLOCATED I THINK AS WE WERE LOOKING AT JUST THE OVERALL I WOULD SUPPORT OR I WE COULD BEGIN IN FISCAL YEAR 26 WHAT I'D RATHER THAN MOVE IT FROM 27 TO 2626 START ON 26 AND 27 AND 20 THOSE ARE I THINK THIS IS A CRITICAL ELEMENT THAT WE'VE ASKED FOR FOR A NUMBER OF YEARS AND WE SEE ACROSS THE ISLAND INCREASING ISSUES THAT THERE'S CONCERN THAT COUNTY SHERIFF'S DEPARTMENT ISN'T HANDLING IN THE WAYS THAT WE WOULD LIKE TO SEE IT HANDLED AND THAT PERHAPS WE NEED OUR OWN POLICE SAFETY OR PUBLIC SAFETY DEPARTMENT OR ENHANCEMENT. SO I AGREE WITH YOU COUNCILMAN UP THAT WE NEED TO MOVE THAT TO 26 IT'S LONG OVERDUE AT THIS POINT ARE CONCERNS THAT WE HAVE OUR SAFETY CONCERNS AND OUR NUMBER ONE JOB IS TO KEEP PEOPLE SAFE AND WE NEED TO TO MOVE THAT UP AND I DON'T WANT TO BE THE PERSON THAT KEEPS MOVING THINGS FORWARD AND CAUSING WORK AND MORE CAPACITY ISSUES BUT JUST THINK ABOUT THE FACT THAT THAT IS OUR NUMBER ONE JOB IS TO KEEP PEOPLE SAFE AND WE HEAR EVERY SINGLE DAY ABOUT ISSUES AND CONCERNS ACROSS THIS ISLAND INCREASINGLY SO WE NEED TO BE PROACTIVE IN TAKING CARE OF THEM OUT. 
          I'M THROWING SOMETHING ELSE ON THE TABLE HERE FOR US OF CONCERN RIGHT OF OUR CURRENT CONDITION AND WITH COUNTY SHERIFF'S OFFICE. I MEAN AT THIS POINT WE ARE HAVING OUR CITIZENS PAY TO THE COUNTY THROUGH THE POLICE FIELD AND AT THE SAME TIME WE HAVE AN EXPECTATION OF OUR CURRENT PROVIDER THAT MAY NOT BE MEETING LIKE SO IT'S NOT THAT I'M A 100% PROPOSAL TO OUTSIDE ORGANIZATION COMING IN HELPING US THROUGH THIS BUT I DON'T WANT TO LOSE THE OPPORTUNITY TO HAVE THE WITH THE CURRENT OC AND I DON'T WANT US TO GET 
          [03:05:01]
DISTRACTED BY HAVING A CONVERSATION SOMEONE ELSE AND WE NOT STRAIGHT ON THIS MOMENT I MEAN WE'VE HAD INCIDENTS THAT HAVE HAPPENED OVER THE MOST RECENT WEEKS I THINK THAT ARE IMPORTANT FOR US TO COME TO THE TABLE AND HAVE A CONVERSATION WITH THE SHERIFF SO I'M A LITTLE CONCERNED ABOUT THIS BEING A A MONEY CONVERSATION INSTEAD OF IT BEING A SERVICE CONVERSATION. AND WE CURRENTLY HAVE A PROVIDER THAT WE ARE NOT NECESSARILY COMMUNICATING WITH SO I JUST THROW THAT ON THE TABLE. 
          CONSIDERATION AROUND TOPIC 5.1. YEAH. AND I GUESS THAT REAL QUICK JUST SO EVERYBODY KNOWS THAT MARK AND I WILL BE REACHING OUT TO SET UP A TIME TO HAVE THAT SERVICE WITH THE SHERIFF AND HAVING THAT CONVERSATION FOR QUITE SOME TIME AND I JUST AND WE NEED CLARITY ESPECIALLY NOW BUT EVEN IN THE BEST OF TIMES GIVEN THE CHANGES THE ISLAND OVER TIME WE SHOULD BE MOVING WITH THIS ASSESSMENT BECAUSE I THINK UNLESS I'M WRONG, MOST ALL OF US ON THE ISLAND REALIZE THAT WE NEED TO DO SOMETHING BIGGER AND BETTER FOR THE SAFETY OF OUR RESIDENTS THAN WE'RE DOING. THERE WAS EVEN THE CAPACITY OF THE SHERIFF TO DO I'M NOT PUTTING THIS AS I AM NOT I'M NOT TRYING TO SAY SOMETHING ABOUT THE SHERIFF'S DEPARTMENT. WE'VE JUST GROWN AND WHAT WE WERE OFFERED BEFORE FIT OUR NEEDS TODAY. SO I FOR ONE WOULD LOVE TO SEE A NEW FIRE RESCUE HEADQUARTERS GROW AS I LOOK AT THE CHIEF. YEAH. SO YOU KNOW THERE'S STILL SOME GREAT THINGS HERE GOING FORWARD TO REALLY ADDRESS REALLY ARE MAIN PURPOSE AND THAT IS THE SAFETY AND SECURITY OF OUR COMMUNITY I AGREE WITH BY 5.2 THE ACTION ITEMS THERE WE INVEST IN WHAT WE VALUE. I'LL LEAVE IT THERE AGAIN THAT'S AN INCENTIVE IF I COULD BRING UP PERFORMANCE BY THE SHERIFF'S DEPARTMENT AND I THINK THERE ARE TWO THINGS THE COMMUNITY SERVICES AND PUBLIC SAFETY COMMITTEE RECEIVES I THINK IT'S AT LEAST TWO REPORTS OR MAYBE QUARTERLY QUARTERLY REPORTS FROM THE SHERIFF'S DEPARTMENT. 
          I THINK WE OUGHT TO ADD AN ACTION ITEM ABOUT EVALUATE THE PERFORMANCE OF THE SHERIFF'S DEPARTMENT VIOLENCE QUARTERLY REPORTS AND THEN PUT A KPI OF DETERMINE THE SUCCESS OF THE SHERIFF'S IN THOSE QUARTERLY REPORTS. I AGREE WITH THAT. 
          I THINK THAT'S INCORPORATED IN THE CONCEPT OF A PUBLIC SERVICE FEASIBILITY STUDY. 
          IT'S NOT AS CLEAR AS OUR DISCUSSION HAS EVOLVED BUT I UNDERSTAND THAT'S WHAT IS INTENDED. BUT I THINK WE NEED TO CALL IT OUT A LITTLE BIT BETTER. 
          WHAT WOULD YOU DO WITH THAT EVALUATION WHEN DONE? AND WE DON'T CONTROL THE BUDGET NOR THE THE SHERIFF'S DEPARTMENT. SO WHAT WHAT WOULD COME FROM THAT AND I THINK IT WOULD HELP DIRECT THE CONVERSATIONS WITH THE SHERIFF'S DEPARTMENT AND THE COUNTY I SUPPORT THE MONITORING AND CALLING THAT OUT AS A KPI IN REGARDS TO THE SHERIFF'S DEPARTMENT IF YOU LOOK AT YOU KNOW THE ITEMS THAT ARE LISTED AS KPIS WE HAVE FIRE RESCUE RESPONSE TIMES YOU KNOW BEACH RELATED EMERGENCY INCIDENT RESPONSE TIMES YOU KNOW WHERE'S THE SHERIFF RESPONSE TIME AND AS WELL AS THE OUTCOMES OF THE ACTUAL CRIMES THEMSELVES WHAT'S HAPPENING IN REGARDS TO THE TRENDS AND YOU CAN USE TO DO A QUICK EVALUATION OF THE SERVICE AND THE OUTCOMES THAT YOU'RE GETTING ONE AND SPEAKING OF KPIS I DID HAVE A QUESTION ABOUT THE SECOND ONE MONITORING REDUCTIONS EMERGENCY RESPONSE TIMES ACROSS FIRE RESCUE OPERATIONS AND JUST STICKING TO THE LET'S MEASURE THROUGH THE MEASUREMENT WE'RE GOING TO SEE WHETHER YOU KNOW THEIR TIMES IMPROVE OR NOT. 
          SO IT JUST SEEMS REDUNDANT TO ME IF YOU'RE ALREADY MEASURING THEM AND THOSE ONES OVER TO THE RIGHT I'LL JUMP IN. VERY HELPFUL COMMENTS. THANK YOU. 
          OKAY HANG ON. HANG ON. I THINK THIS BILL FOOD ANY OTHER COMMENTS FROM COUNCIL ANY PUBLIC COMMENTS ON THIS? ALL RIGHT. 
          WELL LET'S TAKE A BREAK FOR A FEW MINUTES, GRAB SOME LUNCH THEN WE'LL HAVE A WORKING LUNCH AND COME BACK AND GET AT IT. IT'S A GOOD MAP YOU SO YEAH I DON'T KNOW WHERE WE 
          [03:10:15]
NEED TO GO AHEAD AND GET GOING BECAUSE WE STILL HAVE A LOT OF THINGS TO COVER SO KEEP ON EATING AND PAY ATTENTION. ALL RIGHT. READY ROMAN? LET'S GO. OKAY, WELL ONTO, ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT, THE STRATEGY AND THE GOAL STATEMENT VERY MUCH ALIGNED WITH WHAT WE DISCUSSED BACK FEBRUARY. 
          SO COUNCIL CAN GIVE US YOUR FEEDBACK ON ONE THROUGH FIVE LOOKING AT CORRIDORS AND SITES INCLUDING TOWN OWNED PARCELS FOR TARGETED INVESTMENTS AND DIVERSIFIED BUSINESS SECTOR RECRUITMENT RETENTION INCLUDING HEALTH CARE TECHNOLOGY AND OTHER PRIMARY SECTORS LOCAL BUSINESS UTILIZATION PROGRAM THAT EXPANDS ACCESS TO PROCUREMENT OPPORTUNITIES FOR HILTON HEAD ISLAND BUSINESSES ACROSS THE DESTINATION MARKETING ORGANIZATION AND MARKETING PLAN OR TOWN SPONSORED SIGNATURE COMMUNITY EVENTS INCLUDING SPORTING EVENTS, RECURRING FESTIVALS, CONCERTS, HERITAGE EVENTS 0125 ANY ANY QUESTIONS COMMENTS OR ANYTHING ELSE? SO IT'S POINT ONE TO IDENTIFY CORRIDOR AND SITES INCLUDING TOWN OWNED PARCELS FOR TARGETED INVESTMENT SO ALWAYS MAKES ME NERVOUS. 
          THERE'S AN EXPECTATION ON THE TOWN OWNED PROPERTY THAT IT'S BEING HELD WAS PURCHASED AND BEING HELD FOR CONSERVATION FOR GREENSPACE AND NOT FOR DEVELOPMENT AND AND SO IT'S A NERVE THAT WE'RE IDENTIFYING SITES INCLUDING ELIGIBLE TOWN ON PARCELS FOR TARGETED INVESTMENT SO I JUST WANTED TO MENTION THAT IT'S ALSO OVER AS A JUST A GENERAL COMMENT SEEMED AS THOUGH SHOULD BE A REAL TWO THINGS IT SHOULD BE A REAL PARTNERSHIP WITH CHAMBER BECAUSE IT'S SO INTRICATELY CONNECTED BUT WHO WOULD BE COLLABORATING WITH THEM PARTNERING WITH THEM I THINK THAT WE AS A TOWN SHOULD STAND UP A COMMITTEE OF EITHER TOWN COUNCIL MEMBERS, COMMUNITY MEMBERS OR JUST TOWN COUNCIL MEMBERS AND START REALLY FORMULATING OUR OWN ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT TEAM HERE ON THE ISLAND FOCUSED ON THE ISLAND RATHER THAN SOLELY RELYING THE COUNTY'S ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT FOLKS. 
          SO IN THE END SO YOU WOULD ASK ME ABOUT THE ACTION ITEMS THAT'S MY COMMENTS REGARD TO THE ACTION ITEMS OR THE COMMENTS. SO I HAVE A QUESTION 1 TO 5 EVER 6.40 OH I THINK I ANSWERED THAT. I'M CURIOUS FROM FROM A MARK YOU GOT I HEAR A TIME. ALL RIGHT. JUST TRYING TO BE DISCREET OVER HERE, SIR. THAT'S NOT GOING TO HAPPEN. NO, BUT BUT FROM A FROM A STANDPOINT OF IT, I DON'T WANT TO GET INTO THE MINUTIA OF THIS BUT HOW DO WE SEE THIS BEING FACILITATED? YOU KNOW WELL, I'LL JUMP IN HERE. 
          ITEM ONE IDENTIFYING CORRIDORS AND SITES INCLUDING TOWN TOWN PARCELS FOR TARGETED INVESTMENTS WE'VE DONE THAT A COUPLE OF DIFFERENT TIMES. RIGHT? WE'VE DONE THAT MOST RECENTLY WE BID OUT MODERN CLASSIC MOTORS. 
          WE'VE DONE THAT IN THE PAST FEW YEARS AGO AS WE BUILT OUT THE PALMETTO BAY SITE AND THE ONE THAT I THINK WE CAN YOU KNOW, KNOW THE MOST ABOUT IS THE SITE THAT'S ADJACENT THE POST OFFICE ON THE NORTH END OF THE ISLAND. SO OVER TIME ARE WE STILL GOING TO DO THAT? WE PUT THIS IN YEAR THREE KEEPING IN MIND THAT IF WE GO BACK A FEW GOALS WE STARTED OFF 
          [03:15:05]
WITH ESTABLISHING A GREEN PRINT A HILTON HEAD ISLAND GREEN PRINT MAP IT SHOULD GIVE SOME CREDIBILITY TO HOW MUCH LAND HAS BEEN ACQUIRED USED FOR OPEN SPACE USE FOR PUBLIC FACILITY AS WELL AS PRESERVED RIGHT OPEN SPACE DOESN'T MEAN PRESERVED. I THINK AS WE GO THROUGH THAT EXERCISE OF A GREEN PRINT MAP IT SHOULD DO A FEW THINGS. IT SHOULD REALLY TELL US WHAT'S PRESERVED AND THAT MEANS THE FOREST IN FOREST BEACH IT MEANS THE FOREST PRESERVE AND SEA PINES IT MEANS THE ASHMORE TRACT IT MEANS A BUNCH OF OTHER I WOULD SAY THAT OVER TIME THE MOST RISK THAT I HAVE HEARD CONCERN FROM TOWN COUNCIL MEMBERS ON IS WHAT HAPPENS IF SOMEBODY WANTS TO DEVELOP THE ASHMORE TRACT WHAT HAPPENS IF WE YOU KNOW YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN BY THAT SO I THINK THE SOONER WE CAN REALLY DOVE INTO THAT WHAT'S PRESERVED WHAT'S OPEN SPACE AND PUT SOME COVENANTS AND RESTRICTION ON PRESERVATION YOU ALL TOOK A LOOK AS A TOWN COUNCIL YOU TOOK A LOOK AT A LOT OF DIFFERENT SITES PICKLEBALL AND WHEN YOU BACKED OUT OF IS IT CLOSE TO A ROOFTOP IS THE PARK BUSY? DO WE NEED TO TAKE AWAY FROM IT? DO WE NEED TO LOSE SOCCER OR DOG PARK TENNIS SO THAT WE CAN ACHIEVE PICKLEBALL? THAT PROCESS OF ELIMINATION LED TO THE ARROW ROAD SITE ALMOST IN THAT SAME SAME METHOD. I THINK WHAT IS MISSING FRANKLY IS AN UPDATED LAND ACQUISITION AND DISPOSITION MANUAL A GREEN PRINT MAP THAT IS YOURS IS CONFIDENTIAL. 
          IT'S NOT BAKED IN SAYING WHAT YOUR NEXT FIVE PROPERTY ACQUISITIONS LOOK LIKE BUT IT SHOULD TELL US IN THE COMMUNITY WHERE YOUR POSITIONS ARE AND IT'S A LAYERED APPROACH THAT'S HOW NUMBER ONE GETS DONE. YOU ALMOST BY PROCESS OF ELIMINATION BUILD A TOWN IS RIGHT NOW ALL WE HAVE IS A TOWN OWNED PROPERTY MAP THAT DOESN'T HELP US THINK IT DOESN'T HELP YOU MAKE DECISIONS SO THAT'S NUMBER ONE NUMBER TWO EXPAND AND DIVERSIFY BUSINESS SECTOR RECRUITMENT AND RETENTION INCLUDING HEALTH CARE, TECH AND PRIMARY THAT HAS BEEN IN THE PAST WITH BEFORE COUNTY ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT CORP THAT HAS BEEN A LITTLE BIT WITH ME MAYOR PERRY THAT THAT'S BEEN WITH YOU AND THE REST OF TOWN COUNCIL. 
          YOU ALL HAVE KNOCKED ON HEALTH CARE DOORS. YOU HAVE THAT WASN'T SIMPLY MR. O'TOOLE THAT SIMPLY WASN'T ME. YOU'VE KNOCKED ON THOSE HEALTH DOORS AND IN THE PAST I THINK THAT YOU'VE ENTERTAINED CERTAIN PHYSICIAN PRIMARY CARE. YOU'VE YOU'VE ENTERTAINED USES ON MODERN CLASSIC MOTORS. WE BID IT OUT BASED ON CONVERSATIONS AND FEEDBACK. 
          THAT'S HOW NUMBER TWO IS ACCOMPLISHED I CALL IT THAT NUMBER TWO IS PLAYING OFFENSE AND DEFENSE. I 63A LOCAL BUSINESS UTILIZATION PROGRAM THAT EXPANDS ACCESS TO PROCUREMENT OPPORTUNITIES FOR FOUR LOCAL HILTON HEAD ISLAND BUSINESS INCLUDING SMALL MINORITY BUSINESSES THOSE ARE PROGRAMS AND A LOT OF THAT IS IS THE THE MEASUREMENT OF IT. SO ARE WE JUST HIRING THE THE GREAT BIG LANDSCAPING COMPANIES OUT OF COLUMBIA ARE BREAKING SOME CONTRACTS UP TO ALLOW A BETTER QUALITY AND A SMALLER SCALE AND A SCALED UP TO SOME OF OUR LOCAL COMPANIES THAT GETS ACCOMPLISHED WITH OUR PROCUREMENT AND WITH OUR FACILITIES AND WITH OUR CAPITAL PROJECT PROCUREMENT AND CONTRACTS. BMO SPEAKS FOR ITSELF. YOU HAVE A CRITICAL PATH I THINK HEATHER WILL LINE AND ANGIE STONE HAVE DONE A FABULOUS JOB IDENTIFYING THE 12 STEPS TO A CONTRACT AND THEY HAVE STAYED ON POINT. THEY'RE SCORING BIDS, THEY'RE SCORING THE COMPANIES. WE'RE BRINGING THAT FORWARD TO YOU 6.5 YOU WANT US TO KEEP INVESTING IN OUR COMMUNITY. THOSE ARE ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT OPPORTUNITIES AND I WOULD SAY THEY'RE ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT FOR US TOO. IT'S NOT JUST FROM A RECRUITMENT OF ELSEWHERE. IT'S NOT JUST FOR A TOURIST. THERE'S A QUALITY OF PLACE AND QUALITY OF LIFE THAT I LOVE. I'LL SAY FOR ME I LOVE LIVING HERE WHEN I TALKED WITH MY FAMILY ABOUT MOVING AND REALLY LIVING ON THE ISLAND WE LEANED ON A LOT OF THESE COMMUNITIES SIGNATURE EVENTS I'VE LEARNED IN MY FIRST YEAR AS TOWN MANAGER YOU CAN'T GO TO ALL OF THEM IF YOU EXPECT TO NOT BE TIRED BECAUSE THERE'S SO MUCH BUT IF THAT'S UP THERE I ASK YOU ARE WE GOING TO BE STRATEGIC SUPPORTING THE LANTERN PARADE AND OFFICE 
          [03:20:04]
OF CULTURAL AFFAIRS NEXT EVENT LIKE ARE WE GOING TO EVER SCALE OR REFINE ANY OF THE EVENTS RIGHT INCLUDING AN ESPECIALLY CRESCENDO AND THE CHRISTMAS AND THE THE THE THE OTHER HOLIDAYS OH MY MY THANK YOU BECAUSE MY QUESTION IS HOW RIGHT AND REALLY WAS GEARED TOWARDS WHAT DO WE DO RIGHT AS A COUNCIL WHAT DO WE DO FOR ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT AND BUSINESS ATTRACTION AND BUSINESS RETENTION? YOU KNOW ON THE ATTRACTION SIDE WE ALL KNOW THE ORGANIZATIONS THAT ARE OUT THERE, WE KNOW PEOPLE THAT HAVE CONTACTS THAT WE CAN ALWAYS REACH OUT TO TO TALK ABOUT THE OPPORTUNITIES AND THE QUALITY OF THE WORK LIFE HERE AND THEN YOU KNOW, DO WE FORM A COMMITTEE? IS THAT SOMETHING THAT WE NEED TO DISCUSS DOWN THE ROAD TO MAKE CERTAIN THAT WE'RE ADDRESSING IT APPROPRIATELY WITHOUT CONFLICTING WAS THE EDC YOU KNOW WHAT IS IT THAT WE'RE LOOKING TO ATTRACT WHAT IS WHAT ARE THOSE THOSE ELEMENTS YOU KNOW ARE WE SAY HIGH TECH HIGH IMPACT HIGH PAYING I'M SORRY HIGH TECH LOW IMPACT HIGH PAYING HIGH YOU KNOW POSITIONS IN JOBS I WANT US TO BE YOU KNOW, IN A CONFLICT POSITION WITH THE EDC BECAUSE WE'RE PUTTING MONEY THERE BUT ALSO WHAT IS IT THAT WE CAN DO TO HELP SPUR AND THEN THERE'S THERE'S A MARKETING ASPECT AS WELL IN TERMS RETENTION YOU KNOW WHAT IS IT THAT WE NEED TO DO TO MAKE CERTAIN THAT OUR BUSINESSES ARE BEING UP ACTUALIZED POPULARIZED YOU KNOW, BEING ACKNOWLEDGED BEING RECOGNIZED, YOU KNOW, BEING PUT OUT IN THE FOREFRONT SO THAT THEY WANT TO BE HERE. 
          SO OTHERS SEE THAT WE'RE REALLY A BUSINESS FRIENDLY COMMUNITY AND IT'S BEEN STATED BEFORE THAT IN THE PAST SOMETIMES WE HAVE NOT BEEN A BUSINESS FRIENDLY COMMUNITY AND WE NEED TO BE AND YOU KNOW IT'S WE'VE GOT TO BE CAREFUL BECAUSE THAT GOES BACK TO MANAGED GROWTH BUT I THINK WE NEED TO HAVE THESE CONVERSATIONS AS TO WHERE WE EXPECT TO GO AND WHAT IT IS THAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR AND WHAT IS OUR AVENUE TO GET THERE. SO I'D LIKE TO RAISE A POINT THAT IS RELATED TO 6.1 AND OTHERS BUT IS GOING OFF IN A DIFFERENT DIRECTION. 
          THAT IS THERE ARE LOCATIONS WITHIN THE COMMUNITY WHERE THE TOWN OWNS PROPERTY. 
          I'M THINKING OF ONE IN PARTICULAR WHICH IS FOR OFFICE THE FORMER U.S. PNC BANK COMMERCIAL GOT ABOUT THREE POINT CIRCLE HOUSES. RILEY PLAZA AIMS TO BE A CONSENSUS THAT NEEDS THAT NEEDS TO BE REDEVELOPED AND I THINK THERE IS A ROLE FOR THE TOWN FURTHERING THAT OBJECTIVE ON THAT PARTICULAR QUADRANT THERE ARE ONLY FOUR PROPERTIES ON THE PNC BANK THE TOWN OWNS WELLS FARGO, ROBINS PLAZA AND THE POTENTIAL WORKERS BUILDINGS ON RIVERS WAY AS WELL. THERE'S ONLY FOUR OF AND THE TOWN IS ONE OF THEM AND REDEVELOPED THERE IS SOMETHING THAT IS HIGHLY DESIRABLE I'M THINKING OF IS IS IN YOUR STAFF AT SOME POINT ON WITH IN THE CIRCLE AREA FOR AND SAY WHAT'S GOING ON WHAT'S THEIR FUTURE THE EXTENT THAT THE RILEY PEOPLE WOULD LIKE TO DEVELOP PICKLEBALL ON THEIR BACK LONG IT'S NOT SOMETHING THAT I THINK THE TOWN BE IN FAVOR OF BUT HE'S ALREADY APPLIED TO DO THAT AS A MORE IMPORTANT IS HOW WOULD THAT PROPERTY BE REDEVELOPED FOR THE FUTURE? TO ME IT'S SIMPLY A A QUESTION OF A SENIOR STAFF MEMBER PERIODICALLY TALKING TO THE OWNERS OF THE PROPERTY AND SAY WHERE ARE YOU GOING AND HOW CAN WE HELP AND WHAT CAN WE HAVE AS TO WHERE YOU GO IN THE FUTURE? I AGREE WITH YOU AND I WILL TELL YOU THAT I'VE HAD I'VE STARTED HAVING SOME OF THOSE REACHING OUT TO SOME OF THESE TO SEE WHAT FUTURE PLANS EXIST AND HOW THE TOWN MIGHT OR MIGHT NOT BE ABLE TO BE AT THE TABLE TO HELP SOME REDEVELOPMENT ASPECTS SO. ALEX YEAH, I WANT TO FIRST RESPOND TO THE MAYOR'S QUESTION 
          [03:25:11]
OF POTENTIAL COMMITTEE NOT QUITE FRANKLY I WILL OVERLOOK THAT AS FAR AS FORMING A COMMITTEE A COUPLE OF REASONS WHAT IS THE ONE THAT STANDS OUT IS CURRENTLY WHEN THERE'S ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT OPPORTUNITIES MAY LEAD TO SOME CONTRACTUAL AGREEMENT. 
          THE COUNCIL IS HAVING A DISCUSSION AMONG THEMSELVES AND MOST TIMES AN EXECUTIVE SESSION SO WE SORT OF GET TO AIR OUT OUR DIFFERENCES THERE VERSUS IF A COMMITTEE IS TO TRY TO DEAL WITH THIS IT MAY LEAD TO FURTHER DELAYS THE WORD I'M GOING TO USE OC AND I THINK THIS IS JUST SO IMPORTANT TO US THAT IF HERE AT THE POLICY MAKER LEVEL MAY BE ADVANTAGEOUS TO US THIS MY THOUGHTS IMMEDIATE REACTION MR. MAYOR TO THIS THE OTHER IS THE KPI HERE I'M OKAY WITH THEM. ONE THAT'S STICKING OUT TO ME A LITTLE BIT IS VISITOR SPENDING AND OBVIOUSLY THAT'S IMPORTANT . BUT I THINK THERE'S A THERE'S A PIECE MISSING AS FAR AS OUR RESIDENTS ARE CONCERNED. I MEAN YOU AND I HAVE TALKED ABOUT TRYING TO GET THE AVERAGE MEDIAN AGE DOWN. TO ME THAT'S A KPI THAT WE PROBABLY NEED TO BE LOOKING AT WHEN IT COMES TO ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT HERE. 
          SO I MEAN LET'S FACE IT IF YOU'RE NOT NECESSARILY A TOURIST DRIVEN BUSINESS THE OFF SEASON AND YOU'RE RELYING ON THE LOCALS IS OKAY. I THINK IT'S AN IMPORTANT PIECE. OKAY AND OBVIOUSLY THERE MAY BE SOME OPPORTUNITIES WHERE THE LOCAL GUESS RETAIL OF IT MAY NOT MAKE A DIFFERENCE DEPENDING THE INDUSTRY THAT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT. SO THAT'S SORT OF WHAT I WAS THINKING ON ON KPIS HERE. 
          I MEAN ARE TELLING YOU TO ASK THE QUESTION THE MAYOR YOU ASK THE QUESTION THAT I THINK IS BE THE PURPOSE OF COMMITTING TO START WITH CERTAINLY AN AWESOME LENS ON ALL OF OUR SHOULDERS I THINK WE DO THIS REGULARLY. WE ARE OUT THERE, WE'RE TALKING TO THOSE OR LOOKING TO AS STEVE SAID, FIND OUT WHAT THE INTEREST IS AND WHAT PEOPLE'S INTENTIONS ARE WITH REGARD TO ANY TYPE OF REDEVELOPMENT OF THEIR PROPERTY. I THINK IT'S ALWAYS GOOD TO SEE WHAT HAPPENING IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD BUT YOU ASK THE QUESTION WHAT ARE WE LOOKING TO ATTRACT AND RELYING SIMPLY ON THE BEAUFORT COUNTY EDC HASN'T NECESSARILY DRIVEN TO THE ISLAND. THE TYPE OF BUSINESSES THAT THINK WE WANT TO ATTRACT THAT WE HEAR FROM IN THOSE CONVERSATION WITH OUR RESIDENTS AND OTHERS ABOUT WHAT THEY WANT TO SEE, WHAT THEY WOULD LIKE TO SEE HAPPENING HERE ON THE ISLAND. 
          WE KNOW THAT WE'RE LOSING A LOT OF THE BUSINESSES THAT FOLKS ARE MISSING AND SO WE NEED TO ACTIVELY IN MY OPINION ENGAGE IN THAT AND THAT'S WHY THE COMMITTEE WOULD BE THE AND ALSO THINK QUITE HONESTLY THAT ANY DISCUSSIONS TO AIR OUT OUR DIFFERENCES SHOULD BE DONE IN PUBLIC ANYWAY WE SHOULD NOT BE BEHIND CLOSED DOORS TO FIGURE THESE THINGS OUT. 
          WE SHOULD BE AS TRANSPARENT AS WE CAN BE AND AS RESPECTFUL AND CIVIL IN THOSE DISCUSSIONS THAT WE HAVE. SO ALL OF THAT IN TERMS VISITOR SPENDING AND ENGAGEMENT OR, AN ECONOMIC RETURN FROM THE RBC AND OTHER TOWNS SIGNATURE EVENTS I'D LIKE TO SEE THOSE NAMED THOSE SIGNATURE MOSTLY THOSE SIGNATURE EVENTS THAT WE JUST NAMED ONE WE HAVE SOME WE NEED TO BE PROUD OF THAT SHOULD BE LOOKING AT WITH REGARD TO THEIR RETURN ON OUR INVESTMENT THAT WE MAKE EVERY YEAR WHEN WE PUT MONEYS TOWARDS THEM AND ALSO THE IMPACTS THE THE LAND TURN PROVIDE IS AMAZING AND IS DRAWS A HUGE CROWD AND THE CALLIGRAPHY AREA IT'S DIFFICULT TO MANAGE ALL OF THAT SO I'D LIKE US TO LOOKING AT THE IMPROVEMENTS THAT CAN BE MADE DOWN THERE IN TERMS OF THOSE IMPACTS SO THAT IT'S NOT AS DIFFICULT TO COME AND GO IN AND WORRY ABOUT SAFETY ISSUES THERE . I ALSO AM INTERESTED IN KNOWING 
          [03:30:04]
WHERE LIMITED THE KEY PERFORMANCE INDICATORS DO KEEP HIRING KPI THAT'S WHAT KPI STANDS FOR KEY PERFORMANCE INDICATOR TO GROWTH AND SMALL MINORITY OWNED DISADVANTAGED BUSINESS PRICE UTILIZATION PROGRAM WENT ON C 6.3 IT'S CLEAR THAT WE ARE ASKING FOR ACTION TO SUPPORT A LOCAL BUSINESS UTILIZATION PROGRAM THAT EXPANDS TO PROCUREMENT OPPORTUNITIES FOR HILTON ISLAND BUSINESS BASED BUSINESSES INCLUDING THOSE SMALL AND MINORITY BUSINESSES. I WANT TO SEE US MEASURE THEM ALL. 
          WHY ARE WE LIMITING IT? SO THAT NEEDS TO BE IN MY OPINION AND BROADENED IF WE'RE GOING TO DO THAT AND THOSE ARE THOSE ARE COMMENTS. SO FIRST OF ALL, I'M VERY EXCITED THAT THIS IS IN OUR STRATEGIC PRIORITIES. TO ME IT WAS ALWAYS A MISSING ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU GO BACK AND YOU TAKE A LOOK AT THE VISION AND THE MISSION STATEMENT THAT TALKS ABOUT REVITALIZATION AND MODERNIZATION AND PROMOTING THE HEALTH AND VITALITY OF THE COMMUNITY IT GETS THE BUSINESSES. AND SO I'M JUST HAPPY THAT WE HAVE THIS IDENTIFIED AND TO THE POINT MADE IN THE MATERIALS IS THAT INTENTIONAL WORK THAT DRIVES RESULTS AND THIS WORK HAS BEEN GOING ON BUT TO CALL IT OUT AND SHINE A LIGHT IT AND POTENTIALLY HAVE MORE RESOURCES SUPPORTING HERE ON TOWN COUNCIL OR WITH STAFF I IT IS IMPORTANT NEXT STEP SO VERY VERY EXCITED ABOUT THAT IN REGARDS TO SOME OF THE KEY PERFORMANCE INDICATORS I HAVE TALKED ABOUT WHEN THE CHAMBER HAS COME IN AND HAVE GIVEN PRESENTATIONS REGARDING VISITOR SPENDING, I'M VERY WORRIED ABOUT THE THE EFFICACY OF WHAT THEY USE TODAY TO TO QUANTIFY THAT THE NUMBER OF HAS DROPPED DRAMATICALLY AND I THINK THERE ARE NEW TOOLS THAT COULD BE USED PERHAPS TO GATHER THAT INFORMATION BECAUSE IT IS CRITICALLY IMPORTANT TO UNDERSTAND HOW VISITOR SPEND BY THE VARIOUS CATEGORIES. SO I THINK THERE'S AN AREA AN IMPROVEMENT THERE WE NEED TO TALK ABOUT AND MEASURE OVERALL ECONOMIC RESULTS. 
          YOU KNOW SO WHAT IN I DO GET CONCERNED SOMETIMES WHEN WE TALK ABOUT ECONOMIC RESULTS IT MIGHT BE OUR DMA WHICH INCLUDES COUNTY AND NOT JUST HILTON HEAD SO WE KNOW WHAT ARE HILTON HEAD SPECIFIC ECONOMIC INDICATORS AND RESULTS WHICH WE SHOULD BE MEASURING TO MEASURE THE HEALTH OF OUR ISLAND AND OUR BUSINESSES AND AND TO MEASURE THAT BY CATEGORIES AS WELL TOURISM IS NUMBER ONE IT WILL ALWAYS BE NUMBER ONE BUT I'M ALSO INTERESTED AS WELL AS OTHERS AND CHANGING SOME OF THE MIX OF THOSE. SO THE ONLY WAY YOU'RE GOING TO MONITOR THAT IS TO BE ABLE TO MEASURE BY VARIOUS CATEGORIES EITHER THE ECONOMIC BENEFITS THE NUMBER OF BUSINESS LICENSES, ETC. SO WE CAN SEE WHAT'S ACTUALLY HAPPENING AND IN REAL TIME IN REGARDS TO THE NUMBER OF BUSINESS LICENSES UNDERSTANDING PERCENT OF OUR BUSINESSES RETAIN AND MANY NEW BUSINESSES WE'RE ADDING. SO WHAT'S THAT CHURN RATIO? WHAT'S ADDITION OF NEW AND HOW ARE WE TRENDING ON THAT TO UNDERSTAND AGAIN THE HEALTH OF OUR OVERALL? SO I'M VERY EXCITED ABOUT THIS CATEGORY AND I THINK IT'S GOING TO BE AN IMPORTANT ONE AS WE MOVE FORWARD. AS I CAME HERE FIRST OF ALL I WANT TO COMPLIMENT THE TOWN STAFF ON TAKING A CONCEPT THAT WE HAD OUR WORKSHOP IN FEBRUARY AND PUTTING IT INTO WRITING SO THAT WE CAN THEN READ IT AND TRY TO UNDERSTAND AND MAKE REVISIONS BEFORE ADOPTION. SO I THINK IT'S REALLY TO LOOK AT THAT I WOULD PICK UP ON A COUPLE OF THINGS MR. ALFRED MENTIONED SOME COMMERCIAL NERVES AND I THINK IT'D BE GOOD TO EITHER FLESH OUT 6.1 OR ADD A SEPARATE ACTION STEP TO EVALUATE COMMERCIAL NODES FOR REDEVELOPMENT. WE'VE TALKED A LITTLE BIT ABOUT TAKING BUILDINGS ESPECIALLY IN COMMERCIAL BUILDINGS ARE NO LONGER IN USE AND REDEVELOPING THEM AND I CALL THEM NODES ACTIVITY CENTERS BUT THEY'RE AREAS OF COMMERCIAL DEVELOPMENT THAT SHOULD BE LOOKED AT FOR REDEVELOPMENT. SO I WOULD SUGGEST WE ADD THAT SOMEWHERE WHETHER WE ADDED IN AN EXISTING ACTION ITEM OR IS A SEPARATE ONE AND I WOULD SAY VIA THE DISTRICT AND AND INCENTIVES THAT WE COULD FIGURE OUT SO ADDING SOME SORT OF CARROTS INSTEAD OF A STICK TO BE ABLE TO LOOK AT REDEVELOPMENT OF COMMERCIAL NODES. 
          [03:35:04]
THE OTHER THING THAT I WOULD SUGGEST 6.8 THE CULTURAL DISTRICT GUIDE I WOULD ADVOCATE MADE THAT UP IN FISCAL YEAR 26 BECAUSE I THINK IT'S EASILY DOABLE ON THERE'S A FORMAT AND WE HAVE VOLUNTEERS IN THE COMMUNITY ARE WILLING TO HELP STAFF FILL OUT THE FORM AND I THINK WE OUGHT TO MOVE THAT UP TO 28 FISCAL YEAR 26 THEN WITH REGARD TO KPIS THE THIRD ONE ON THE PERCENTAGE OF BUSINESSES I WOULD SUGGEST WE SAY PERCENTAGE LOCAL BUSINESSES RETAINED AND OPERATING BECAUSE WE TO RETAIN OUR LOCAL BUSINESSES BY SOME MEANS AND I THINK WE OUGHT TO KEEP ON THAT WORD LOCAL IN THAT KPI. I'D LIKE TO SUPPORT BRYSON'S COMMENT ABOUT 6.8 THAT IS WORK WOULD BE DONE BY PEOPLE OTHER THAN THE ONES THAT ARE INVOLVED IN ALL OF OUR OTHER PROJECTS AND WITH SOME OUTSIDE COMMUNITY HELP. 
          I WOULD URGE MOVING THAT TO THE CURRENT FISCAL YEAR AS STEVE AND I SEE OUT FOR NOW I CAN DO IT TONIGHT IF YOU WANT US TO AND I ALSO UNDERSTAND THAT AT LEAST ON SOME PRELIMINARY PLANNING OR COMMITTEE MEETINGS AND PRESENTATIONS THAT THIS MATTERS IS GOING TO COME UP SHORTLY. COMMITTEE AGENDAS RESEARCH THE STORY THAT I HEARD. 
          SO THERE'S AN ADDITIONAL SUPPORT FOR MOVING THIS TO CURRENT FISCAL YEAR OR THE UPCOMING FISCAL YEAR. I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHAT THE FINANCIAL OF DOING THAT WOULD BE BECAUSE AS I UNDERSTAND THIS PROGRAM AND THE LONG TERM GOAL OF WHAT THERE'S AN INTEREST IN, THERE'S A LOT OF DISCUSSION, SOME POTENTIAL FINANCIAL IMPACTS TO THE TO THE TOWN THATY AROUND FOR NOW ARE NOT GOING TO CHARGE ANYTHING NOT A LOT ASSUMING THAT YOU WILL AND I UNDERSTAND THE IT AS WELL JUST SINCE YOU ASKED ME FOR A DIRECTION ON THAT I'D BE INCLINED TO TO HAVE THE CHECK MARKS GO FROM 26 TO 28 WITH THE THAT A LOT OF THE FRONT LOADING WORK IS GOING TO BE DONE BY OTHERS AND TAKING INTO CONSIDERATION THAT GOT A PLAN THAT WAS WORKED ON MANY MANY MOONS AGO SOME WILL SAY THAT IS AN HAS SORT OF BEEN KICKED DOWN THE ROAD FOR A LONG TIME THE FACT THAT THE TOWN NOW HAS ITS OWN ARTS AND CULTURAL OFFICE I THINK WE'RE MOVING IN THE DIRECTION AND AT SOME POINT THERE'S GOING TO HAVE TO BE DISCUSSION AROUND THE TOWN'S INVOLVEMENT. WE'RE TALKING ABOUT DISTRICT PLANS COMING ONLINE THIS YEAR. I THINK THIS IS A HUGE COMPONENT OF ONE OF THE DISTRICTS AND HOW IT PLAYS SO I'M OKAY WITH MOVING IT BUT I AM CONCERNED ABOUT STAFF CAPACITY WITH IT. IF THERE'S SOMETHING THAT OTHER ENTITIES ARE GOING TO BE ON AT ANY OF OUR IN POSITION SO THAT WHEN DISTRICT PLANS OUT WE HAVE A LARGER CONVERSATION ABOUT IMPLEMENTATION AND SORT OF WHERE WHERE I AM WITH THIS FOR EVERYONE YOU MOVE INTO 2016 NEED TO MOVE ONE OUT SO THIS IS A SITUATION AS WHERE THE CAPACITY OF STAFF TO DEAL WITH IT IS SOMEWHAT BECAUSE IF SOMEBODY ELSE WANTS TO GO THROUGH IT NOW I KNOW SHE'S NOT INVOLVED THIS HAS HAPPENED THREE TIMES NOW WE'VE MOVED IT BACK INTO 2016 BUT WE'VE WHAT WE'RE LOOKING AT DOING WE GET TOWARDS THE END HERE IS KIND OF DOING A TALE OF TAPE RIGHT? WHAT HAPPENED WHAT HAPPENED WITH ALL THE MOVES? WHERE WERE WHEN WE STARTED? WHERE WE STARTED I THINK YOU'LL FIND A REFLECTION OF WHAT STAFF FELT THEIR CAPACITY AND YOUR WERE RIGHT. SO WHEN WE RUN THAT TALE OF THE TAPE AT THE END OF THIS SESSION WILL UNDERSTAND ARE WE FROM THAT OR CLOSER TO THAT? AND THAT'S A TOUGHER DECISION, RIGHT? I CAN HELP I APPRECIATE MOVE ON AND MOVE ON OUT. 
          WE'RE GOING TO TALK ABOUT THAT. I ALSO THINK THAT WHILE THERE IS A LIFT THERE IS A LIFT AT STAFF LEVEL NO MATTER WHAT WE DO EVERYTHING THAT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT TODAY NEEDS TO OPERATIONAL PLAN WHETHER BIG OR SMALL IT NEEDS ONE. NATALIE IS ALREADY VERY INVOLVED WORKING ON THIS DISTRICT WITH THOSE WITH THOSE STAKEHOLDERS. 
          THERE'S NO COST US IT'S MORE ABOUT PRIDE, IDENTITY AND ALSO IF THERE'S A CULTURAL DISTRICT 
          [03:40:05]
AND THERE'S A GRANT APPLICATION NOT FOR US BUT FOR A NONPROFIT AND THEY WANT TO APPLY FOR THE GRANT THE GRANT OUT THROUGH THE GRANT AWARD I SHOULD SAY THERE'S IN SOME INSTANCES THERE'S SOME EXTRA CREDIBILITY IF YOU'RE A PART OF OF OF THIS DISTRICT. 
          THERE'S NO REQUIRED MANDATORY FUNDING FOR THIS. BUT THOSE FOLKS THAT ARE INVOLVED AND I'LL START BUYING INTO THE PROGRAM BECAUSE IT'S NOW RECOGNIZED AND DESIGNATED BY SOUTH CAROLINA HAVE SOME DIRECT EXPERIENCE IN A HISTORIC DISTRICT TOGETHER A CULTURAL DISTRICT. THOSE WERE TWO DIFFERENT THINGS BUT THEY THEY WORKED OFF EACH OTHER QUITE NICELY THIS WORK HAS BEEN DONE BY OTHERS NATALIE HAS TO BE INVOLVED WITH AND OTHERWISE WHY WHY ARE I ASK US IF WE'RE NOT INVOLVED? WE'RE OF COURSE WE'RE INVOLVED. 
          IT'S JUST I WOULD SAY OF THE PERCENTAGE OF TIME 100% PROBABLY OUR LIFT THE TOTAL AMOUNTS PROBABLY 10% SO IT HAS BEEN SOME LOW HANGING FRUIT NOT TO DISCOUNT IT BUT IT'S BEEN SOMETHING THAT HAVE BEEN TRYING TO BRING FORWARD IT IS IN THE AGENDA SO TO SPEAK. 
          MARY I HAVEN'T GONE OVER THAT MONTH WITH YOU BUT IT IS BRUIN SO ONE I'LL JUST SAY THIS I HAVE NO ISSUE WITH PUTTING IT IN THIS FISCAL YEAR BUT I LIKE I LIKE THAT WE'RE GOING TO LOOK AT THIS PART OF THE WORK AND WE CAN'T PRETEND THAT THERE'S NO WORK HERE BECAUSE IT'S YOUR AGENDA THE WORK THAT NEEDS TO BE DONE TO UNDERSTAND IT SUPPORTED TRUST IT ALL THE ABOVE AND I AM SUPPORTIVE OF MOVING THIS FORWARD AS WELL. I THINK IT'S GREAT SUPPORT TO OUR ARTS AND CULTURE ORGANIZATIONS. IT'LL BE SOMETHING WE CAN MARKET SOMETHING NEW THROUGH THE CHAMBER OUR DMO SO IT GIVES US NEW SPEAKING POINTS TO CREATE MORE AWARENESS IN REGARDS TO WHAT IT IS THAT WE OFFER SOME OF THE OTHER THINGS THAT HAVE BEEN ALLUDED TO ARE MORE LONG TERM AND ARE GOING TO TAKE MORE WORK. 
          BUT FOR THIS SPECIFIC LINE AS IT'S DESIGNATED I THINK THAT'S AN IMPORTANT DELIVERABLE THAT WE CAN LOOK AT FOR THIS COMING YEAR TO TO MS.. TANNER'S POINT, I WROTE A COUPLE WORDS DOWN THE LINE AND SAY IDENTIFICATION GRANT APPLICATIONS AND MARKETING THAT'S REALLY THE THE BUCKET OF THIS WELL THAT ANSWERS SOME SOME OF MY QUESTION WITH REGARD TO COST BECAUSE WHAT I HAD HEARD THROUGH SOME OF THE CONVERSATION IN SOME OF THE MATERIALS WAS THERE WAS AN EXPECTATION THAT THE TOWN WOULD BE BUYING VARIOUS PARCELS VERY BUSY STOREFRONTS ETC. IN THIS DISTRICT THE DISTRICTS HAVE GREAT IDEA I DON'T HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THE DISTRICT IN AND OF ITSELF I HAVE A PROBLEM WHERE THE TOWN BEGINS TO BE THE LANDLORD IN THIS DISTRICT. AND SO THAT'S THE ASPECT THAT I WAS TRYING TO GET AT FROM MY STANDPOINT I'M PERFECTLY FINE WITH MOVING TO 26 TO 28 BUT I WANT TO MAKE CERTAIN THAT IT DOESN'T INTERFERE IN 26 WITH OTHER THINGS THAT ARE MORE PRIORITIZED. 
          SO ONE THING I WANT TO BRING UP FOR FOR A THOUGHT COUNSEL WITHIN THIS THIS GOAL SECTION IS UNDER THE KPIS EDUCATION NUMBER OF STUDENTS THAT ARE NOW IN THE AREA BECAUSE AS WE TALK ABOUT ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT AND RETENTION, IT IS THE STUDENT POPULATION THAT IS GOING TO BE ONE OF THOSE KEYS FOR US TO REPLACE US AS WE PHASE OUT WHETHER IT'S THE PRIVATE SCHOOLS, IT'S THE PUBLIC SCHOOLS, WHETHER IT'S HIGHER EDUCATION. 
          DO WE NEED TO PUT IN HERE SOME KPIS TO UNDERSTAND WHAT'S GOING ON EDUCATIONALLY? AND I'M ASKING COUNSEL I'LL LET ME REACT TO THAT, MR. MAYOR. I LIKE IT AND I MIGHT BE SEGUEING INTO THE NEXT ITEM BUT IF WE'RE FOCUSED ON OUR LOCAL STUDENT WHO GETS EDUCATED LOOKING FOR A GOOD JOB IT MAY BE ADVANTAGEOUS FOR THEM TO COME BACK AND LIVE WITH MOM AND DAD FOR A WHILE BECAUSE THE OTHER PIECE OF THIS IS IT'S VERY HARD TO FIND HOUSING, RIGHT? SO I THINK THINGS US THINKING THAT WE'RE GOING TO ATTRACT THE YOUNGER DEMOGRAPHIC TO HILTON HEAD WITHOUT OPPORTUNITY FOR FOR HOUSING THINK IS FAR FETCHED BUT THE LOCALS MAY HAVE BIT OF AN EDGE SO TO SPEAK. SO YEAH, I'M OKAY WITH US BEING 
          [03:45:04]
A LITTLE BIT MORE ENGAGED WITH OUR LOCAL EDUCATORS THAT'S FROM THE HIGH SCHOOL UP TO COLLEGE TECHNICAL COLLEGE AS WELL. FROM YOUR PERSPECTIVE THIS KPI IS A MEASUREMENT OF STUDENT POPULATION. IT IS IT'S A MEASUREMENT OF ALL STUDENT YOU KNOW HIGH SCHOOL AND COLLEGE AND DCL VERY TECHNICAL COLLEGE ABSOLUTELY TO MAKE SURE WE'VE GOT A FACILITY THAT'S UNDERUTILIZED AND THEY'RE SAYING THAT STUDENTS ARE COMING NEXT. 
          THEY'VE GOT FOUR NEW CLASSES. THEY'RE LOOKING FOR HOUSING YOU KNOW, LOOKING TO CREATE SOMETHING SO THAT NEEDS TO BE UNDERSTOOD BY US AS TO WHAT HAPPENS ECONOMICALLY BECAUSE AS WE TALK ABOUT HOW TO KEEP BUSINESSES HERE, WE KNOW THAT IT'S IT'S EMPLOYEES SO THAT EDUCATION AND I'M EXCITED TO ABOUT FOUR NEW CLASSES COMING TO TO THE COLLEGE OVER HERE BUT I AM ABOUT WHAT THE CLASSES WOULD WILL BE AND HOW THAT INTEGRATES INTO THE OVERALL ECONOMIC DRIVE. I THINK WE'VE GOTTEN A LITTLE BIT OFF TOPIC WITH REGARD TO ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT AND RETENTION IF WE WANT THOSE STUDENTS TO JUST LIKE ORIGINAL PURPOSE RIGHT WAS A HOSPITALITY CENTER WHICH WOULD THE COMMUNITY OR ONE OF THESE NEW ENDEAVORS THAT THE COLLEGE IS TAKING AND HOW WOULD THAT IMPACT THAT THAT ABSOLUTELY. 
          SO THEY'RE CHANGING THE NAME OF THEIR HOSPITALITY PROGRAM TO RESORT TOURISM AND HOTEL MANAGEMENT. THEY'RE EXPANDING THAT ASPECT OF IT TO A TO ALIGN WITH WHAT THEY TEACH AT USC AND COLUMBIA . THEY'RE ALSO OFFERING FOR US STUDENTS DUAL ENROLLMENT FOR HIGH SCHOOL KIDS AND THAT'S ADDITION TO THE FOUR AND THEN THEY'RE ALSO WORKING WITH TCL TO OFFER IT THEIR DUAL ENROLLMENT STUDENTS AND I THINK THAT'S THAT'S ALL GOOD NEWS . I DO WANT TO JUST CIRCLE TO MAKE SURE THAT I WAS HEARD THAT THE ARTS COMMISSION ISN'T REALLY MY CONCERN MY CONCERN IS WHAT DOES THAT ALL ENTAIL AND SO I, I DON'T CARE WHERE YOU PUT IT UNTIL THOSE THAT COMES FORTH I DON'T KNOW HOW IN HOW FAR I WOULD SUPPORT THE IDEA IS GREAT WE'LL SEE WHAT THE REST OF IT UNFOLDS AT AND I AM ALSO WANTING TO SEE A CHANGE THE LANGUAGE UNDER THE KP THE SECOND BULLET THERE SO THAT IT INCLUDES ALL BUSINESSES IS IS MA'AM TO THAT SECOND ONE THAT WAS JUST AN OVERSIGHT I'M SURE IT WAS MOST OF THIS IS IT'S JUST A LOT I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT IT'S ADDRESSED THAT THAT'S TO BE CORRECTED RECORD ARTS COMMISSION DESIGNATED FOR 26 ARE THERE OTHER ARE THERE OTHER CONSENSUS ITEMS FOR CHANGE HERE? I THINK THAT THERE WAS SOMEONE WHO MENTIONED I THINK IT WAS ALEX WHO MENTIONED THAT IT SHOULD BE ALL FOUR YEARS. 
          I DON'T WANT THEM TO SET UP AN EXPECTATION OF WHATEVER THAT. BIGGER PICTURE IS WITH THIS OUR DISTRICT WOULD HAPPEN IN THAT FIRST YEAR AND THE 26 TO 20 YEARS AFTER THAT SO THEN WE WILL BE THE TITLES WE NEED TO ESTABLISH AND MAINTAIN ESTABLISHED EVERYTHING AND OUR MISSION I WASN'T GOING TO BE THERE BUT YOU ESTABLISH AN EXPECTATION THAT'S NEEDED MY QUESTION YOU CAN ESTABLISH WHATEVER YOU WANT BUT THEN WHAT DO YOU EXPECT US TO DO WITH IT AND WHAT DO YOU KNOW? WHAT ARE THE NEXT STEPS AND IF WE DON'T TALK ABOUT THOSE AND THIS MAY NOT BE THE RIGHT PLACE TO DO IT AND A CONVERSATION I PROBABLY SHOULD HAVE WITH SOME SOMEONE AND WE SHOULD ALL THINK ABOUT THAT. I DON'T WANT TO BE A LANDLORD. 
          I DO NOT ME MYSELF. I SPEAK FOR AS MY POSITION FOR THE TOWN I WOULD NOT WANT THE TOWN TO BECOME A LANDLORD NOT IN THAT BUSINESS. MAY I HELP WITH SOME CLARITY WITH THAT JUST JUST TO KIND OF GET THAT ON THE WAY THIS AND I UNDERSTAND YOU'RE SAYING WE'VE HAD THOSE DISCUSSIONS THIS HAS ABSOLUTELY TO DO WITH THAT PART THIS THIS IS MORE ABOUT STAKEHOLDER MANAGEMENT AND STAKEHOLDER GATHERING AND HELPING THE HILTON HEAD ISLAND ARTS GROUP WRITE THE DESIGNATED THE SOUTH CAROLINA ARTS COMMISSION DESIGNATED CULTURAL DISTRICT IS MORE OF AN IDENTIFICATION AND MARKETING TOOL AND A AND A PLUG AND IT HELPS MOBILIZE THEIR MARKETING AND THEIR UNITY. IS THIS ALL IT? THAT'S ALL THIS IS IT'S IS NOTORIETY. THERE'S SEVERAL IN THE STATE AND IT HAS ZERO TIE WITH EXPECTATION OF INVESTMENT I'M I'M CLEAR THAT'S NATALIE'S 
          [03:50:07]
REALLY TIME WITH THE GROUP TO HELP WE'RE GOING TO HAVE A RESPONSIBILITY BUT I DON'T MEAN BY HERSELF TO MAKE SURE THAT IT'S WELL-ORGANIZED AND WELL MARKETED AND I WOULD SAY THIS I THINK WE'RE ALREADY DOING IT. WE'RE JUST NOT GETTING ANY CREDIBILITY FROM THE STATE AND I CUT ON THE KPI YOU WERE TALKING ABOUT MEASURING LOCAL STUDENT POPULATION I THINK THAT'S OKAY BUT I THINK WHAT WE WANT TO MEASURE IS LOCAL STUDENTS WHO REMAIN OR RETURN TO WORK ON THE ISLAND. THAT'S THE REAL KEY AND PERHAPS WE DO THAT IT'S GOING TO BE HARD TO DO UNLESS YOU KEEP DOING OF ALL THE GRADS BUT YOU CAN PROBABLY TELL BASED ON STUDENTS WHO ARE GOING IN FOLLOWING A CERTAIN TRACK TO GO EITHER IMMEDIATELY INTO WORK OR GOING ON TO COLLEGE SO YOU'D BE ABLE TO MEASURE THEM SOMEHOW. BUT I THINK THAT'S WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR IS THOSE WHO ARE GOING TO STAY OR THOSE WHO RETURN AND THEN SEPARATELY PERHAPS A KPI TO MEASURE U.S. B STUDENTS WHO END UP STAYING WORKING ON THE ISLAND. 
          SO I'M A BIG FAN OF DATA AND A BIG FAN OF OF LEVERAGING IT TOWARD ECONOMIC RESULTS. 
          I ALWAYS TELL PEOPLE BE SURE YOU CAN MEASURE YOUR WHAT YOU'RE TRYING AND THAT'S WHAT I WAS TRYING TO LIMIT IT AND TRYING TO PICK UP SOME KEY POINTS WE COULD WORKING WITH THE SCHOOL SYSTEMS RIGHT BECAUSE IT MAYOR WHEN YOU WERE SPEAKING ABOUT ABOUT MEASURING STUDENT POPULATION, I INITIALLY READ THAT AS STUDENTS HAD MUST MEAN FAMILIES IN HILTON HEAD WHICH MEANS OUR POPULATION IS BALANCING OR IS BEING BY OR IT'S NOT RIGHT IT'S EITHER EITHER THE STUDENT POPULATION SHRINKING WHICH WOULD MEAN FAMILIES ARE SHRINKING WHICH WOULD RETIREES MIGHT BE GROWING RIGHT VERSUS ARE STUDENTS MOVING THROUGH AND OUT OF HIGH SCHOOL AND GOING UP SCB OR FOR SOME REASON GOING TO CLEMSON. THOSE ARE DIFFERENT MORE DIFFICULT NUMBERS TO TRACK BUT THEY BUT THEY TELL A STORY TOO SO JUST MAKE SURE WE'RE GETTING TO THE HEART OF WHAT THE BOAT SO YES THE FIRST PART OF IT IS WHAT IS THE FAMILY ATMOSPHERE HAPPENING ON THE RIGHT THERE THAT IS TOLD BY THE STUDENT POPULATION I KNOW THAT SEVERAL CLASSES ALREADY BEEN CANCELED AT ITS SEVERAL SCHOOLS. RIGHT. 
          BECAUSE THEIR POPULATION DOWN NEXT YEAR THE NEW HIGH SCHOOL WILL REBUILD WILL BE IN PLAY WHICH IS EXPECTED TO BE A DRAW FOR STUDENTS. BUT WE NEED TO UNDERSTAND WHAT'S THERE THEN ALSO WHAT IS HAPPENING AT USC. WE NEED TO HAVE AN INDICATOR TO SAY THAT THERE ARE 30 STUDENTS THERE THIS YEAR NEXT YEAR THERE ARE 60 STUDENTS THERE. 
          WHAT'S HAPPENING BECAUSE ALL GOES RIGHT BACK TO OUR ECONOMIC PURPOSE OF HAVING USC BE AN $25 MILLION INTO A FACILITY IS SUPPOSED TO HAVE STUDENTS RIGHT SO AND THERE SO I THINK WE'VE GOT THE CHANGES ANCHORED HERE I'M VERY CLEAR ON THE 26 ALONE OR 26 THROUGH 28 WEEKLY ON AT ALL SIX THREE ONLINE CULTURAL ART I THINK ESTABLISHING 26 IS GOOD AND THEN WE CAN REEVALUATE AFTER WE DO THAT WHAT IF ANYTHING WE DO NEXT. OKAY I SEE, I SEE AND I'M SHAKING MY HEAD OVER HERE SAYING 26 IS FINE. LET'S JUST LET IT LET US BRING THIS FORWARD. WE WILL BRING THIS BY THE END OF THE FISCAL YEAR IN THE NEXT 60 DAYS OR LESS. I HAVE TO LOOK AT THE SCHEDULE WHAT DO WE DO IS THERE THAT THE DISCUSSION IS WHETHER OR NOT WE AS A TOWN NEED TO FOCUS ATTENTION ON OUR OWN ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT RATHER THAN RELYING SOLELY ON THE COUNTY? THAT'S A GOOD ONE. 
          WELL, THANK YOU ARE THERE ARE THERE OTHER ARE THERE OTHER COUNCIL MEMBERS WHO ARE WHO ARE SUPPORTIVE OF THIS COLORADO? I'M SUPPORTIVE OF THIS CONCEPT AND YOU KNOW, I THINK IF IT'S ME IN THIS ROLE NEXT YEAR, IF IT'S SOMEBODY YOU KNOW, IF I WAS NOT THE WIND AND I THINK THE MAYOR TO BE LEADING THAT CHARGE IN TERMS OF BUSINESS ATTRACTION AND HAVE THOSE CONVERSATIONS WITH THE COMMUNITY I MIGHT SAY THAT COUNCIL SHOULD NOT BE BUT I THINK COUNCIL SHOULD BE RIGHT BECAUSE. WE HAVE CONTACTS AND I'VE HAD CONVERSATIONS WITH SEVERAL INDIVIDUALS THAT HAVE GREAT CONNECTIONS THROUGHOUT THE COUNTRY AND THEY'RE WORKING ON STUFF OUTSIDE OF TRYING TO BRING IN OTHER ORGANIZATIONS. 
          [03:55:01]
I DO OUR BIG JOB SO I DON'T KNOW IF WE NEED TO DON'T I AGREE WITH MR. BROWN AND THAT HAVING A COMMITTEE MAY BE THE BEST THING FOR US TO DO BECAUSE WE'D BE INVOLVED AND I THINK THIS IS A BEGINNING STAGE AND AS WE GO THROUGH IT WE'LL LEARN MORE AS TO HOW WE MIGHT NEED TO ADDRESS IT. YOU KNOW I'VE WORKED WITH EDC AND I'VE PUT SOME IDEAS INTO THEIR I'VE GIVEN THEM SOME SUGGESTIONS STILL WANTING TO SEE SOME OUTCOMES FROM THAT BUT WE GOT TO CONTINUE THAT THAT AS WELL. WE'VE BEEN ON THAT ROAD FOR QUITE A WHILE AND WHAT WE'RE SEEING THE TYPES OF BUSINESSES THAT THE RESIDENTS AND OUR VISITORS WOULD APPRECIATE ARE LEAVING NOT NOT COMING HERE AND BEING. 
          AND SO A SPECIFIC FORCE BEHIND THOSE CONVERSATIONS TO TO WORK THROUGH WOULD BE I THINK BENEFICIAL TO US ALL. I'LL CONTINUE THE CONVERSATION IF THERE'S NO AGREEMENT HERE TODAY THAT WE NEED TO FOCUS ON ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT AS A TOWN RATHER THAN RELY TO THE BEAUTIFUL COUNTY TO ADDRESS EXACTLY WHAT YOU ASK WHAT ARE WE LOOKING TO ATTRACT ARE CAN I MAKE A COMMENT? I WOULD JUST SAY REGARDING THAT COMMENT THERE AS YOU'RE THINKING ABOUT IT RATHER THAT'S A CONVERSATION FOR TODAY WHICH I DON'T THINK WE'RE GOING THERE FOR LATER IS JUST MAKING CERTAIN THAT BECAUSE THERE ARE MANY LAYERS OF ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT THAT SERVE YOUR MUNICIPALITY THAT THAT ALIGNMENT IS CLEAR AND THAT YOU'RE GIVING THE DIRECTION AS TO WHAT YOU EXPECT FROM THOSE ENTITIES BECAUSE IF YOU'RE NOT ARTICULATING TO THEM HERE ARE THEIR PRIORITIES, HERE ARE THE PRIORITY INVESTMENT AREAS. 
          THIS IS WHAT THE TOWN'S TO DO IN ORDER TO HELP MAKE THAT PITCH AND WHEN A PROJECT AND IT'S HARD TO GO AND LOOK AT THEM AND YOU DIDN'T DO X IF YOU'VE NEVER SAID IS WHAT YOU DESIRED SO WITH THERE BEING COMMERCE TYPICALLY LOOKS AT INDUSTRIAL FOR THE LARGER PART NOW IS STARTING TO FOCUS MORE ON HEALTH CARE RELATED, THE LIFE SCIENCES AND OTHER TECHNOLOGIES THAT WOULD BE BENEFICIAL LETTING THEM KNOW WHAT PARCELS THOSE KINDS OF NEEDS AND THEN WORKING THAT THROUGH THE COUNTY DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION AND TO MAKE CERTAIN THAT THEY ARE ALSO SINGING OFF THAT PAGE MUSIC. SO I THINK IT'S IT'S MAYBE LESS ABOUT DO WE NEED ANOTHER LAYER OR DO WE JUST NEED TO CLEARLY ARTICULATE WHAT IT IS WE WANT TO GET OUT OF THIS AND THE DELIVERY OF THAT HASN'T BEEN STRUCTURED AND SO THEREFORE THE COMMITTEE CONCEPT WAS WHAT CAME TO MIND. THE OTHER THING THAT WE TALK ABOUT IN HERE IS OUR PARCELS AND ACTIVATE TOWN OWNED PARCELS FOR ECONOMIC USE. 
          I WOULD FAR MORE LIKE TO SEE ACTIVATING THOSE PARCELS THOSE BUILDINGS THAT ARE ALREADY IN EXISTENCE TO TO BE UPGRADED AND TO BE REUSED. WE START LOOKING FOR LAND AND BUILDING SO WHEN THOSE CONVERSATIONS HAPPEN WE'RE NOT JUST LOOKING FOR A PARCEL OF LAND AND SAYING OH YOU COULD DO X, Y, Z ON THIS LAND. I WOULD LIKE TO SAY THAT THERE'S THESE MANY STOREFRONTS THAT AND WOULDN'T YOUR BUSINESS LOOK LOVELY THAT RIGHT THERE AND SO THOSE ARE ALL THE CONVERSATIONS I THINK TO YOUR POINT WE NEED SOMEONE TO HAVE AND I'D BE THRILLED TO HAVE IT SO IF WE'RE NOT GOING TO PUT THE DEBT OR MAYBE I'LL JUST DO THE I'LL DO THE WORK I CAN ADD SOME CLARITY AT LEAST SO YOU ALL KNOW WHAT HEARD AND SEAN AND I JUST COMPARED NOTES AND I THINK WE'RE ON THE SAME PAGE WE'RE GOING TO MODIFY THE LANGUAGE TO ITEM SIX ONE AND IT'S NOT JUST TOWN PROPERTIES SAYS INCLUDING TOWN PROPERTIES BECAUSE IT'S EVERYTHING IT IS THOSE COMMERCIAL REDEVELOP AREAS. 
          ARROW ROAD IS A REALLY GOOD EXAMPLE OF A REDEVELOPMENT AREA AND THEN EXPAND AND DIVERSIFY BUSINESS SECTOR RECRUITMENT AND RETENTION INCLUDING HEALTH CARE. 
          HEATHER THIS IS TO YOUR POINT TECHNOLOGY AND OTHER PRIMARY JOB SECTORS AND WE CHECK THE BOX FOR ALL THREE YEARS THAT MEANS WE'RE GETTING IN THE BUSINESS AND IT DOESN'T REVIEW FOR COUNTY EDC BY ITSELF ON PURPOSE IN THE PAST I THINK WE'VE LEANED ON THEM A LITTLE BIT BUT IN MY CAREER IN THE MANY YEARS I'VE BEEN INVOLVED I'VE ALWAYS BEEN INVOLVED IN AND PLAYING POINT ON ANY RECRUITMENT WHETHER IT'S THE PRIMARY JOBS AT A TECHNOLOGY PARK OR JUST HELPING LOCAL FIND THEIR WAY THROUGH THE CHANNELS OF TOWN HALL IF THEY'RE FINDING IT DIFFICULT OR IF THEY'RE NERVOUS IT MIGHT BE DIFFICULT RIGHT SO THAT THAT LAYER THERE 
          [04:00:05]
AND AGAIN OUR MEASUREMENT OF THAT SHOULD LET US KNOW IF WE'RE FINDING SUCCESS OR NOT. 
          SO THOSE TWO I THINK ANSWER WHAT YOU'RE ASKING. SO ANYBODY FROM PUBLIC WISH TO COMMENT ON KELLY AFTERNOON AND WITH THE BANK ON ON THE AFTERNOON AND PREPARATION FOR OKAY SO SO YOU HEAR WHAT YOU'RE SAYING AT EVERY OPPORTUNITY AGENCY AND AGAIN YOU KNOW AND I KNEW THAT I PRIOR YEAR PRIOR WERE OR 85 IS AND I'LL SHARE WITH YOU ON THE MEETINGS AS FAR AS I ARE 20 YEARS SINCE MANY OF YOU HAVE HAD THE CRISIS OR I CAME TO THE AREA AND TO START YOU SEE YOU AT ME FOR A HIGH STUDENT HERE AT WORK SO THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME AND WE'RE HAPPY THANK YOU THANK YOU BE BASICALLY AS TEST TEST CAN WE ON THE SLIDES GO BACK TO 6.4 AND 6.5 BECAUSE THAT'S WHAT I WANTED TO COMMENT ON. THANK YOU. 
          ON A PERSONAL NOTE, 6.5 TALKS ABOUT SUPPORTING TOWN SPONSORED EVENTS AND AS A NOTE OF PERSONAL PRIVILEGE I THINK CELEBRATION PARK IS GREAT DESPITE THE FACT THAT WE COULD USE A FEW MORE TREES THERE BUT I THINK CELEBRATION PARK IS UNDER UTILIZED AND I THINK I WAS DIRECT THIS TO MR. ORLANDO I WOULD LOVE TO SEE STAFF SPONSOR MORE EVENTS AT CELEBRATION PARK 6.4 TO ME IS INTRIGUING ABOUT THE DESTINATION MARKETING ORGANIZATION AND MARKETING PLAN. IT'S MY UNDERSTANDING THAT JUST FEW DAYS AGO AS MANY AS SEVEN COMPANIES WERE INTERVIEWED AN EXECUTIVE SESSION AND IT'S MY UNDERSTANDING THAT THIS IS THE FIRST TIME THIS VERY LUCRATIVE CONTRACT WAS PUT OUT TO BID. 
          I COULD BE ON THAT BUT THAT'S MY UNDERSTANDING AND THAT IS CRITICALLY IMPORTANT AS TO WHO THE CHANCELLOR AND I'M WONDERING IF THE IS ABLE TO WITHOUT DIVULGING THE NAMES OF THE COMPANIES TELL THE PUBLIC A LITTLE MORE INFORMATION ABOUT THE PROCESS FOR SELECTING POTENTIALLY A NEW DESTINATION MARKETING ORGANIZATION. 
          KEEP IN MIND THAT NEARLY 3 MILLION VISITORS COME TO HILTON HEAD EVERY YEAR 3 MILLION. 
          AND WHAT'S OUR CAPACITY? I RAISED THIS QUESTION NUMEROUS TIMES NEVER RECEIVED AN ANSWER IS THE CAPACITY 3.5 WE RUN OUT OF SPACE FOUR WE GO TO 4.55 MILLION VISITORS A YEAR. 
          WHAT IS OUR CAPACITY? OKAY. AND AGAIN I WOULD HOPE THAT TOWN STAFF COULD DIVULGE A LITTLE MORE INFORMATION ABOUT 6.5 I'M SORRY 6.4. 
          THANK YOU. THANK YOU. YES, MA'AM MA'AM. 
          [04:05:16]
THANKS FOR A FEW MINUTES. I JUST WANTED TO SAY HOW EXCITED I WAS TO SEE THAT YOU'RE GOING TO ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT AS AS A PROGRAM. I THINK THAT I'VE SPENT THE LAST TWO OR THREE YEARS PROBABLY READING EVERY BOOK IN THE LIBRARY ABOUT HILTON HEAD HISTORY AND TALKING TO AS MANY PEOPLE AS I CAN. AND I NOTICED RIGHT HERE ON YOUR LOGO THERE'S A TERM IN LATIN AND IT SAYS PRESERVE AND PROSPER. 
          SO I THINK THAT BALANCE THAT I SEE YOU STARTING TO MOVE TOWARDS TERMS OF PROSPERING ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT I ALSO SEE WHAT'S HAPPENING OUT. HARTVILLE SO THERE'S A HUGE MOVE BETWEEN THE PORT AND HARTVILLE SOME OF YOU PROBABLY ARE TO SOME OF THE DETAILS THAN I AM OF THE HOUSING OUT THERE. BUT THAT'S A HUGE, HUGE APARTMENT DEVELOPMENT NOT MENTION BUPKIS WHICH I'M ALL EXCITED ABOUT PERSONALLY BUT PLACES LIKE BUCKY'S WILL GIVE A 60, 70, $80,000 YOUR JOB. I THINK I'VE BEEN TO ENOUGH BUCKY'S TO SEE THE ADS THAT'S HARD TO BEAT ON THE ISLANDS SO I THINK THERE'S A TIPPING POINT I GUESS MY MY TRAINING AS AN ECONOMIST AT AN IVY LEAGUE SCHOOL AND AS WELL AS WORKING FOR FORTUNE 500 COMPANIES I SEE THE LEADING INDICATORS I SEE THAT NOT TOO FAR DOWN THE ROAD INCLUDING THE PORT WE A LOT OF DEVELOPMENT GOING ON THIS IS NOT A MATTER OF JUST AFFORDABLE HOUSING ON THIS ISLAND YOU ARE NOW IN A COMPETITION. I WAS IN A SENIOR ECONOMIST FOR THE FEDS IN UPSTATE NEW YORK. 
          I WENT IBM LEFT AND THEY HAD PUT ALL THEIR EGGS IN THE IBM BASKET. 
          THAT ECONOMY COLLAPSED AND I'M NOT TALKING ABOUT WENT DOWNHILL. 
          IT COLLAPSED. SO I WOULD URGE YOU TO DECIDE IF YOU'RE GOING TO CONTINUE TO FOCUS SOLELY ON TOURISM? I THINK WAS EXCITING TO HEAR ABOUT LOOKING FOR TECH HUBS I THINK IT'S ARROW ROAD. I THINK YOU HAVE BUILDINGS THAT CAN PROBABLY CONVERTED TO TECH HUBS. WE CERTAINLY KNOW ALL THESE AND FOOD LION HAVE FIGURED OUT THAT THERE'S GOING TO BE AN INCREASED HEADCOUNT AT THIS END OF THE ISLAND BECAUSE THEY WOULDN'T PUT IN A FOOD LION IT WOULDN'T PUT IN AND ALL THESE UNLESS THEY'RE GOING TO GET THAT DENSITY BUT HOW LONG IS THAT GOING LAST? SO WHEN I LOOKED AT HARDIE BILL IT'S GOING TO GET DRAWN OUT THAT WAY I THINK THAT GOING TO HAVE TO DECIDE WHERE THEY'RE GOING TO BE TOURIST FRIENDLY, BUSINESS FRIENDLY OR FRIENDLY, HOW YOU MEET THAT BALANCE THAT'S NOT GOING TO BE EASY. I DON'T ENVY YOU. I ALSO THINK THAT I LOVE THE IDEA OF THE DISTRICT BUT I WOULDN'T FOCUS SIMPLY ON CULTURAL DISTRICT BECAUSE IF YOU'RE LOOKING AT PRESERVING AND I THINK THE TOWN MANAGER MENTIONED IT HISTORIC DISTRICTS HAVE A LOT OF PUNCH AND CAN YOU WITH THAT PRESERVE MISSION SO I APPLAUD FOR THAT LOOK AT THINGS LIKE TRANSPORTATION YOUR COMPETITION AND REALLY HOW ARE YOU GOING TO BUILD THAT PIPELINE THE STUDENTS BECAUSE YOU HAVEN'T TALKED ABOUT AS A CURRICULUM PIPELINE YOU OF SAID LET'S JUST COUNT IN THE END I NEED TO STOP YOU THERE THANK YOU APPRECIATE THAT ANY OTHER COMMENTS ALL RIGHT, BRONSON, NO OFFENSE TO MR. BUT I'M GLAD HE'S NOT HERE TODAY BECAUSE WE GET TO HEAR FROM A YOUNG BUT I WANTED TO UH TO TAKE HER UP ON THE OFFER MAYOR OF SERUM THE RESULTS OF THE SURVEYS OF THE LOCAL EMPLOYEES AS IT'S DONE AND I'VE HAD SOME SIDEBAR ABOUT THE ONE SORT OF A LISTENING LEARNING TOOL WITH SOME OF THE LOCAL BUSINESSES BECAUSE I THINK NEED TO UNDERSTAND WHAT'S GOING WELL AND WHAT'S NOT GOING SO WELL AND IF WE'RE GOING TO BE TAKING ON ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT AS A GOAL OF OURS. SO THANK YOU. 
          THANK YOU. ALL RIGHT. THIS PROGRAM IS GOING TO DRIVE NEXT WEEK. YEAH, I'M JUST GOING WE NEED TO TAKE A JUST A QUICK BREATH. 
          WE HAVE MOVED THROUGH SIX GOALS. WE HAVE SEVEN, EIGHT, NINE, TEN, FOUR LEFT. WE'RE TRYING TO BE THROUGH THEM BY TWO. 
          IT DOESN'T SOUND LIKE THAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN BECAUSE WE REALLY WANT SPEND SOME TIME ON SOME OF THE GOOD POINTS RAISED EARLIER ABOUT PRIORITY RANK MOVING FROM NUMBER THREE INTO FOUR, FOUR AND THREE AND SHUFFLING THE DECK IN A DIFFERENT WAY. 
          WE HAVE TO SPEND SOME TIME THERE SO WE'RE THINKING WE CAN STOP PART AS THREE BUT I WANT 
          [04:10:04]
TO GET OUT OF THE ROOM TODAY WITH SOME CLARITY ON AND PRIORITY. 
          I DO THINK THAT WE HAVE TO SPEED UP IF WE'RE GOING TO DO THAT SO I ASKED MATT IF HE'LL LET ME HE CAN GRAB THE STEERING WHEEL, I CAN TALK AND GET THROUGH ADVANCING WORKFORCE HOUSING OPPORTUNITIES. YOU CAN READ THE GOAL, THE STRATEGY WE'VE READ THOSE TOGETHER I, I BELIEVE THAT WE HAVE IT RIGHT I HAVE NOT HEARD FROM TOWN COUNCIL MEMBERS TO CHANGE IT WHATSOEVER IN OUR TIME LEADING UP TO THE DAY SO A PAUSE AND ASK YOU IF YOU'RE GOOD WITH THE GOAL AND THE STRATEGY BEFORE I DOVE INTO THE ACTION ITEMS OR IS EVERYBODY GOOD? I'M LEANING I'M LEANING ON YOU TO TELL ME THAT I'M ASKING IS GOOD. YES. ALL RIGHT. 
          GOOD ACTION ITEMS. SO WHILE I WON'T DOVE IN AGAIN WE'VE WE'VE TALKED ABOUT THESE THINGS I THINK WE CAN REFINE A COUPLE OF ITEMS BUT WHAT WOULD SEAN AND I AND REALLY WHAT I'M BRINGING TO THE TABLE IS ASKING YOU IF WE'RE ON THE RIGHT TRACK RIGHT FIRST AND FOREMOST OUT OF THE GATE AND IF WHY 26 REVIEW THE FINDING HOME PLAN THAT DOCUMENT WAS ESTABLISHED IN 21 OR 21 NOVEMBER OF 2122 OKAY. TO REVIEW THE FINDING HOME PLAN TO JUST REALLY LOOK AT IT YOU AS A TOWN COUNCIL TO TAKE A LOOK AT IT AND ASSESS WHETHER THERE'S VALIDITY TO ALL OF IT OR NOT. I THAT NEEDS TO HAPPEN I ASK THAT THAT HAPPENS THAT IS WHAT TOWN COUNCIL POLICY ADOPTION IS ASKING ME TO ACCOMPLISH AND I AND I CAN'T GO THROUGH IT BY MYSELF AND PICK AND CHOOSE WHAT IS COMING FORWARD AND NOT ALIGN THE HOUSING COMMITTEE WITH TOWN COUNCIL DIRECTION ON POLICY ALIGNMENT I.E. SEVEN ONE ABOVE OR ANYTHING THAT THAT THAT SPINS OUT OF THAT PROJECT PRIORITIZATION SUCH AS ANOTHER PUBLIC PRIVATE PARTNERSHIP AND COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT. SO WE'RE ASKING AND WE'RE THAT THOSE TWO ITEMS OUT OF THE GATE ARE THE FBI 26 PRIORITY CONTINUE TO PUSH ON NORTH POINT HOUSING THE REZONING IS APPROVED GROUND LEASE IS NEXT THE PLANNING COMMISSION AND THE DRP APPROVALS ARE NOT LONG AFTER THEN IT'S BUILDING PERMIT THOSE SITES I SAY PLAN APPROVAL BUILDING PERMIT WHATNOT YOU KNOW ADVANCING RIGHT SO DELIVER THE NORTH POINT PUBLIC PRIVATE PARTNERSHIP BUT ALSO ESTABLISH A PUBLIC PRIVATE PARTNERSHIP TO ESTABLISH A OR AN ADVANCE ROAD WORKFORCE HOUSING WE KNOW THAT THE TOWN PURCHASED SEVEN ACRES ON BRYANT ROAD AND WE CAN AT LEAST LAY OUT WHAT WE BELIEVE AS A STAFF AS A TEAM, AN RFQ LIKE WE DID WITH NORTH POINT TERM SHEET AT OUR UPCOMING WORKSHOP. SO WE'RE WE'RE SAYING THAT THAT PROJECT WELL NORTH POINT'S JUST OVER THE NEXT COUPLE OF YEARS WE'RE SAYING THAT THAT BRYANT ROAD IS CHECKBOX FOR ALL THREE ASSESS THE HOUSING FUND SUSTAINABILITY CAME UP AT BUDGET THAT CAME UP IN MY ONE ON ONES TWO ON TWO'S PUBLIC WORKSHOPS AND AT ONE OF THE ONE OF THE TWO READINGS BUT ESTABLISH A MULTI-YEAR INVESTMENT STRATEGY BY IDENTIFYING A RECURRING FUNDING SOURCE TO IMPLEMENT TOWN WORKFORCE HOUSING PRIORITIES. 
          I PUT THAT IN YEAR ONE BECAUSE IF WE'RE GOING TO DO THE ABOVE WE NEED ■TOATLEAST ADDRESS THAT SEVEN SIX AND SEVEN SEVEN FOR CLARITY IS LOOKING FOR GRANT FUNDING RIGHT AND WE HAVE SOME FROM TOWN ATTORNEY THAT GENERAL FUND IS TO NOT BE USED FOR THOSE PRIVATE INVESTMENTS. 
          WE'VE BEEN VERY SUCCESSFUL AND I WANT TO SAY THAT HAVE BEEN VERY SUCCESSFUL WITH THE USE OF AMERICAN PLAN ACT DOLLARS ARPA DOLLARS $1.6 MILLION IN HOME REPAIR THOSE A LOT MORE DOLLARS IN HOME REPAIR THAN MOST PLACES WE HAVE RUN OUT OF MONEY. 
          WE HAVE NOT RUN OUT OF DEMAND. AND ARE THERE OTHER GRANTS OUT THERE? ALL THOSE GRANTS THAT ARE OUT THERE ARE NOT A 100 TO 0 MATCH. THEY'RE A 1 TO 1 MATCH OF AN 8020 MATCH. AND THEN WE DON'T HAVE MATCHING FUNDS. 
          SO THOSE GRANTS DON'T SEEM AS PALATABLE TO US AS AN ORGANIZATION SO FOUR, SEVEN, SIX AND SEVEN SEVEN IS TO KEEP OUR FEET MOVING ON THOSE OPPORTUNITIES NUMBERS SEVEN, EIGHT AND 790I JUMPED OVER THE NINE SIMPLE RUN NO I DIDN'T I'M GOOD SEVEN EIGHT AND SEVEN NINE ARE OPERATIONAL THOSE ARE THOSE SIDEBAR COMMENTS THAT MATT AND HEATHER AND SEAN AND I HAVE BEEN TOWN COUNCIL ALREADY ADOPTED THAT POLICY THAT DISPLACED MY MITIGATION SUPPORT 
          [04:15:03]
WORK AND THE HOUSING CONVERSION POLICY ARE NOW OPERATIONAL AND SO MY RECOMMENDATION TO NOT FORGET ABOUT THEM THAT'S A THAT'S A THAT'S AN OUR RESPONSE ABILITY NOW WE CAN STILL MEASURE BUT WE BELIEVE THAT THOSE TO OUR OPERATIONAL AND SHOULD BE REMOVED AND THEN ESTABLISH A WORKFORCE HOUSING INDEX TO DO TWO THINGS ONE TO TRACK A NATURALLY OCCURRING WORKFORCE HOUSING AS WELL AS ANY PROGRAMMATIC SO THAT WE UNDERSTAND AFFORDABILITY FROM A HOME DIFFERENT THAN WAGE AND THEN IT ALSO HELPS US TO BETTER COUNT AND I'LL SAY THAT TO BETTER COUNT THE CONVERSIONS, BETTER COUNT THE NEW OR BETTER ACCOUNT THE THE WORK THAT'S BEING DONE PUBLIC RIGHT WE KNOW HOW TO COUNT NORTH POINT PROJECT 157 UNITS BUT WHAT THE CONVERSION OF THE BUILDING THAT IS ON DUNN AND GONZALEZ AND WILMINGTON PARKWAY NEAR THE SEA PINES USED TO BE A BANK I FORGET THE NAME OF IT BUT THOSE ARE GOOD UNITS. 
          THERE'S UNITS THAT WERE CONVERTED IN CALGARY. THERE WERE UNITS THAT THE TOWN COUNCIL BY SHEER NATURE OF YOUR APPROVAL OF WORKFORCE HOUSING CONVERSION POLICY AND PROGRAM WE JUST CONVERTED YOU JUST CONVERTED 80 UNITS NEAR THE HOSPITAL THAT WERE RETIREMENT ASSISTED AND NOW THEY'RE NOW THEIR APARTMENTS SO THERE'S SOME GOOD TO COUNT THERE AND THEN WE WANT TO AND WE CAN WORK ON THE WORDS SHAWN AND I STILL GRAPPLING WITH 711 THE COLLABORATING ON AN ANNUAL HOUSING SUMMIT WE HEAR THERE'S GOING TO BE ONE WE ARE TRYING TO SAY THAT WILL BE THE ONLY PERSON HAVING THAT WHETHER IT'S BE FOR JASPER HOUSING TRUST WHETHER IT'S COMMUNITY FOUNDATION LOW COUNTRY I WE WANT TO SHOW UP CONFIDENTLY THAT WE HAVE A SEAT AT THE ADULT TABLE AND THAT WE'RE PARTICIPATING THAT WE'RE NOT IN THE CROWD SO THAT WE CAN ACTUALLY CELEBRATE ALL OF THE GREAT WORK WE'RE DOING. 
          SO I DO BELIEVE THAT OUR PARTICIPATE IN AMONG THAT THAT NETWORK IS STRATEGIC IN AND ITSELF I PUT IT IN HERE BECAUSE SHOULD AN ANNUAL HOUSING SUMMIT SHOW UP I WANT TO SHOW UP CONFIDENTLY OH THE KPIS REDUCTION AND SHARE OF WORKFORCE COMMUTING OFF ISLAND RIGHT NOW WE KNOW AT LEAST OUR ORGANIZATION I KNOW THOSE NUMBERS AND SO INTERNALLY IS INTERESTING IS ALMOST THE SAME AS PROJECTED EXTERNAL RIGHT AT 6040 6080 OFF 40 ON I MIGHT FINE IS JUST THAT WE TRY TO REDUCE THAT AND I THINK THOSE THOSE NUMBERS WILL MEASURE OVER TIME NUMBER OF NEW PRESERVED OR CONVERTED WORKFORCE HOUSING UNITS WE JUST TALKED ABOUT THAT UTILIZATION OF EMPLOYER SUPPORTED HOUSING AND TRANSIT PROGRAMS PERCENTAGE OF HOUSING FUND ALLOCATION COMMITTED TO ISLANDS PROJECTS AND THEN SATISFACTION LEVELS FROM ISLAND EMPLOYERS AND HOUSING PROGRAM PARTICIPANTS. THAT'S A HARDER ONE. 
          THAT'S A SURVEY I THINK OVER TIME WE'RE GOING TO GET OURSELVES IN A SURVEY MINDSET TO SEE HOW WE ARE DOING. SO THAT'S WHAT I THINK AT LEAST WHAT WE'VE HEARD THE HOUSING PROGRAM TO BE AGAIN I'M TRYING TO SPEED THROUGH A FEW THINGS SO WE CAN SPEND SOME PRIORITIZING COMMENTS FOR COUNCIL. OKAY, SURE. 
          7.5 I DO DISAGREE THAT IT SHOULD BE IN HERE SO AS TO ASSESS HOUSING FUNDS SUSTAINABILITY AND ESTABLISH A MULTI-YEAR INVESTMENT STRATEGY BY IDENTIFYING DIVERSE RECURRING FUNDING SOURCES TO IMPLEMENT OWN WORKFORCE HOUSING PRIORITIES. 
          AND I SAY THAT I DON'T AGREE WITH THIS ACTION ITEM BECAUSE THE TOWN IS NOT IN BUSINESS AS I UNDERSTAND IT OF BEING A AUTHORITY OR THE LIKE AND WE ARE NOW INCH BY INCH ACTUALLY GOING IN THAT DIRECTION AND THIS FURTHERS THAT GOAL THAT SOME FOLKS HAVE TO CREATE A NEW DEPARTMENT SO THAT THE TOWN IS INVOLVED IN HOUSING AND HOUSING IN THAT MANNER SECURING THE FUNDING FOR THE REPAIR GRANT SO THAT SEVEN SIX AND SEVEN SEVEN WE'VE JUST HAD A CONVERSATION ABOUT VIEW FROM COUNTY AND BLUEPRINT JASPER COUNTY HOUSING TRUST AND WHEN WE HAD THAT CONVERSATION WE I THOUGHT AGREE THAT WE WOULD RELY ON HOUSING TRUST TO DO THAT WORK THAT WE ARE PARTICIPATING IN IT THAT IS WORK THAT DO AND THAT THAT WOULD BE WHERE WE WOULD REALLY PUT OUR RELIANCE ON THESE TYPES OF PROGRAMS AND NOT THAT THE TOWN WOULD BE WORKING TOWARDS 
          [04:20:08]
ANY GRANT FUNDING IF THEY WERE TO REMAIN WHICH I HOPE THEY DON'T BECAUSE WE'VE ALREADY SAID AGREED THAT THAT WAS BEFORE COUNTY BEFORE JASPER COUNTY HOUSING THEN THIS LANGUAGE NEEDS TO BE CLEANED UP AND MADE SURE THAT 7.7 FOR INSTANCE SECURED FUNDING AND SHOULD SECURED GRANT FUNDING BUT UNDER PREVIOUS CONVERSATIONS AND I THOUGHT AGREEMENT WE SHIFTED THAT RESPONSIBILITY OVER TO THE TEMPORARY RESPONSIBILITY THAT WE TOOK ON WHEN THOSE FUNDS BECAME AVAILABLE AND WE DESIGNATED THEM EVEN THAT CONVERSATION IT WAS THIS PROGRAM LIVES AS LONG AS THOSE DOLLARS ARPA DOLLARS TO SUPPORT IT AND HERE WE ARE GOVERNMENT CREEP GOVERNMENT MOVING ONE STEP FURTHER INTO DOING SOMETHING THAT HAVE REPEATEDLY ALREADY AGREED ON AND ESTABLISH WE'RE NOT GOING TO DO. 
          IN FACT IN THIS CASE THE GOOD NEWS IS THERE'S ANOTHER PROVIDER WHO DOES THAT WORK WHO CAN DO THAT WORK AND WE'VE AGREED THAT WE WOULD RELY ON THEM NOT SURE WHY THIS IS IN HERE BUT IS GOVERNMENT IN THE WORST WAY AND YET 7879 TAKING CARE OF THEMSELVES THOSE ARE OPERATIONAL THROUGH THE AGREED UPON DISPLACEMENT PROGRAM IN WHICH THE TOWN HAS A SOLE RESPONSIBILITY IF NO NOTIFICATION TO THAT DOCUMENT. SO RESPONSIBILITY NOTIFICATION AND 7.11 COLLABORATE ON AN ANNUAL HOUSING SUMMIT THE WORD COLLABORATE I THINK SHOULD BE PULLED OUT THAT INSINUATES THIS I READ IT THAT WE WOULD BE WORKING TOWARDS THE CREATION OF ANNUAL HOUSING SUMMIT AS MARK CLEARLY INDICATED NOW THE ROLE REALLY FOR US IF THERE WAS TWO ONE THAT WAS TOGETHER TO SHOW UP TO CELEBRATE AND REPORT ON NOT REVIEW WE DON'T NEED TO REPORT ON PROGRESS THAT WE HAVE MADE AND ALIGN REGIONAL NONPROFIT EMPLOYER CONTRIBUTIONS AGAIN THAT SPEAKER COUNTY JUST FOR HOUSING TRUST THAT WE HAD AGREED ON AND THE PRIVATE SECTOR UNDER KEY PERFORMANCE INDICATORS WANT TO MAKE SURE THE NUMBER OF NEW PRESERVED OR CONVERTED WORKFORCE HOUSING DELIVERED ANNUALLY AS IT'S MEASURED IS ALSO CAPTURING THAT PRIVATE SECTOR. SO I THINK THAT THAT PRIVATE SECTOR LANGUAGE OUGHT TO BE BUILT IN THERE WHEN WE TALK ABOUT HOUSING ON THIS ISLAND IS ALWAYS DRIVEN BY WHAT IS THE TOWN DOING, WHAT IS THE TOWN DOING, WHAT IS THE TOWN DOING AND AS A LIMITED GOVERNMENT WHO'S ESTABLISHED WE DON'T WANT TO HAVE A HOUSING AND DEPARTMENT. WE'RE NOT IN THAT BUSINESS. WE WE NEED TO ENCOURAGE AND INCENTIVIZE AND CELEBRATE ALL OF THE PRIVATE DEVELOPMENT THAT HAS TAKEN PLACE AND SO THAT'S WHAT WE SHOULD BE MEASURING HOW WE HOW ARE WE DOING WITH THAT ENDEAVOR IN THE PRIVATE SECTOR PERCENTAGE OF HOUSING FUND IMPLICATIONS TO ISLAND SPECIFIC PROJECTS AGAIN IF WE DON'T A HOUSING DEPARTMENT WHY DO WE HAVE A HOUSING FUND AND? THOSE ARE MY COMMENTS OR COMMENTS AND SEE HER LET ME HAVE YOU RESPOND TO I'M NOT ASKING AND I THINK I ASKED YOU TO RESPOND OUR DOCUMENT AND IT'S MY SENSE WELL I WAS I HAD A SO SO FIRST OF ALL I AM IN AGREEMENT WITH ALL OF THIS. I'LL JUST SAY IT THAT WAY. SO I'M GOING TO BE SECOND OF ALL, WE'RE GOING TO BE HAVING A WORKSHOP ON HOUSING ON JULY 29. 
          SO I THINK SOME OF THOSE CAN BE FURTHER FLESHED OUT AT THAT TIME. 
          THIRD, I HELD A COMMUNITY MEETING IN NOVEMBER OF LAST YEAR AND I ASKED FOLKS TO COMMENT ON THE 15 STRATEGIES THAT WE HAD IN OUR CURRENT STRATEGIC PLAN AND TO SAY WHICH OF THESE PLEASE PICK MORE THAN FIVE 3 TO 5 WOULD BE GREAT. AND IS THERE SOME ON THIS LIST AND THERE SOME THAT ARE NOT ON THIS LIST. TELL ME WHAT THOSE ARE SO WERE KIND ENOUGH TO GIVE ME COMMENTS AT THAT TIME IN ADDITION HAD SENT OUT AN EMAIL TO THOSE WHO ASKED TO BE ON THE LIST SINCE WE DON'T HAVE EMAIL ADDRESSES BY AWARDS AND SO I GOT A LOT OF COMMENTS FROM FOLKS AT THAT TIME. SO THE TOP FIVE INCLUDED 
          [04:25:04]
WORKFORCE HOUSING ALSO INCLUDED GROWTH MANAGEMENT ALSO INCLUDED RESILIENCE AND WELL MILTON PARKWAY CORRIDOR AND DUTY LAND AND CULTURAL PRESERVATION AND I'M USING THOSE AS GUIDELINES AS. I DO THIS WORK TODAY. IN ADDITION THE, CHAMBER OF COMMERCE IS OUR DNA DANA SHARED WITH US FOR WAVES OF SURVEYS AND ASKING COMMUNITY AND I HOPE YOU FOLKS CAN HEAR ME ASKING THE COMMUNITY WHAT ARE THEIR TOP CONCERNS TWO OF THE TOP CONCERNS ARE ARE WORKFORCE SHORTAGE AND AN ISLAND WORKFORCE HOUSING ADDITION IF YOU LOOK AT THE 2025 LEGISLATIVE PRIORITIES OF THE CHAMBER OF COMMERCE INCLUDES WORKFORCE AND WORKFORCE HOUSING. AND FINALLY AS I MADE A NOTICE CAN UNDERSTAND MY SCRIBBLE FROM OUR FEBRUARY WORKSHOPS THERE WAS A SURVEY OF TOWN COUNCIL MEMBERS OF OUR RANKED CHOICES AND 66% SAID GROWTH MANAGEMENT STRATEGY AND 56% SAID WORKFORCE HOUSING. SO I THINK ALL OF THESE ARE PRIORITIES THE ACTION STEPS I THINK THIS IS A KEY PRIORITY. THE ACTION I AGREE WITH AND I'M READY TO MOVE FORWARD ON THOSE I THE COMMENTS TO HERE YES. SO IN REGARDS TO WORKFORCE AND I'M VERY SUPPORTIVE OF PUBLIC PRIVATE PARTNERSHIPS SO WHEN I THINK THE 7.5 YOU KNOW THINKING ABOUT FUNDING I PREFER THE APPROACH THAT WE'VE HAD WITH NORTH POINT WHERE WE LOOK AT OUR FUNDING THROUGH TOWN ON LAND THAT PROPERLY COVENANTED SO THAT WE CAN USE FOR THAT TYPE OF SUPPORT SO BIG CONTRIBUTION AND REALLY HELPS REGARDS TO THE ECONOMICS AND THE FEASIBILITY OF THESE TYPES OF PROGRAMS AND WHAT I THINK IS REALLY GREAT ABOUT IT IS THAT IT IS A LEASE AND AT THE END OF THE DAY WE GET THE LAND BACK SO. I THINK CONTINUING TO FOCUS ON THOSE TYPES OF PROGRAMS IS A WIN FOR EVERYONE IN REGARDS TO THE MEASUREMENT I THINK IT'S ALSO VERY IMPORTANT TO MEASURE ALL HOUSING NOT JUST THOSE THAT ARE CREATED THROUGH THESE SPECIFIC PROGRAMS PRIOR COMMENTS ABOUT THE PRIVATE SECTOR BUT NATURAL OCCURRING AFFORDABLE HOMES AS WELL AND I THINK YOU GET TO IT AS WELL LOOKING AT HOW MANY WORKERS LIVE ON THE ISLAND VERSUS VERSUS COMMUTE AND THEN I'M REALLY LOOKING FORWARD TO THE WORKSHOP BECAUSE I THINK THERE ARE A COUPLE OF TABOO SUBJECTS THAT WE NEED TO DISCUSS THAT DO IMPACT HOUSING AND THEN BRING THEM UP AND THEN WE HAVE TO DECIDE ARE WE GOING DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT OR NOT. SO SHORT TERM RENTALS AND THE IMPACT THAT THAT HAS HAD ON A WORKFORCE IN AFFORDABLE HOUSING I KNOW IT'S A VERY TOUCHY SUBJECT I GET IT BUT I THINK WE NEED TO ACKNOWLEDGE THE IMPACT THAT IT'S HAD AND THEN WE NEED TO DECIDE AS A TOWN COUNCIL IS THERE ANYTHING WE WANT TO DO ABOUT THAT THAT MIGHT POSITIVELY BENEFIT HOUSING FOR WORKERS AND THEN OUR DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS AS WELL? YOU KNOW, AGAIN, I'M SAYING THAT THIS IS SOMETHING THAT WE WANT TO DO BUT IT SHOULD BE SOMETHING THAT WE DISCUSS. 
          SO IT ALWAYS SHOULDN'T BE ABOUT HOW MUCH MONEY WE BRINGING TO THE TABLE TO DEVELOP HOUSING. 
          BUT WHAT ARE OTHER ITEMS AND TOOLS INCLUDING INCENTIVES FOR DEVELOPERS IN REGARDS TO BRINGING THESE PROJECTS TO LIGHT AROUND? ATHOL WELL I'M SUPER EXCITED ABOUT I THINK IT'S JULY 29TH 29TH I CAN'T WAIT THIS TIME TO SEE A TABOO. 
          I LIKE IT. WE DEFINITELY NEED TO FURTHER DISCUSSION AS FAR AS WHAT'S BEFORE US TODAY I AM IN AGREEMENT WITH ALL OF IT JUST A COUPLE OF POINTS THAT I WANT TO MAKE ON A FEW OF THEM. ONE POINT FOR WHEN IT COMES TO THE PUBLIC PRIVATE PARTNERSHIP TO ADVANCE THE BRYANT ROAD INITIATIVE TO THAT HAS A DIRECT COALITION WITH A FURTHER ITEM WHICH IS NOW NUMBER EIGHT BUT A REFERENCE THE MUDDY CREEK NEIGHBORHOOD STABILIZATION PLAN WHICH IS THE CBC'S AUSPICES. I THINK THE TWO HAVE VERY DIRECT COALITION LAST WE WANT TO HAVE HAPPEN IS AN AREA THAT IS VERY SENSITIVE BEING GENTRIFIED THROUGH WHATEVER 
          [04:30:02]
WORK WE DO AS FAR AS PUTTING MORE HOUSING ON GROUND. SO IF THERE'S SOME WAY TO TIE THE TWO TOGETHER THROUGH THIS EXERCISE I'M SORT PROMOTING THEM WITH POINT FIVE UNDER THE WORKFORCE OPPORTUNITIES TALK ABOUT THE FUNDING WE HAVE ALREADY STARTED TO TO GET IN THAT BUSINESS. NORTH POINT WOULD NOT BE A REALITY OUT IN NOT PURCHASED THE PROPERTY OUT DID NOT PUT FORTH ARPA FUNDS TO MOVE IT ALONG THE LAND THOUGH THIS YEAR HAS PUT A STAFF POSITION FOR HOUSING AND MONIES WILL COME OUT OF THE HOUSING FUND OKAY SO I THINK WE'RE THERE ALL RIGHT. I KNOW IT'S IT'S TOUGH IF YOU IF YOU ARE CONCERNED ABOUT THE TOWN SUBSIDIZING SOMEBODY'S RENT ON A MONTHLY BASIS, THAT'S A DIFFERENT CONVERSATION THEN THAT'S GETTING THE BALL ROLLING THROUGH SOME INVESTMENT. AND I AGREE THAT THE PUBLIC PRIVATE PARTNERSHIPS ARE THE BEST WAY TO THERE. BUT WE WE CAN'T IGNORE THE FACT THAT THE COST OF LAND ON HILTON HEAD IS THE IT'S OKAY AND IF THERE'S A FUNDING COMPONENT TO HELP US MOVE THAT ALONG, I THINK IT'S IMPORTANT TO HAVE IT HOME REPAIR PROGRAM. 
          THIS IS A COMMENT THAT I HEAR A LOT FROM COMMUNITY MEMBERS WE GOT IN THAT BUSINESS BECAUSE IT WAS SOMEBODY ELSE'S MONEY AS WE GOT IN THAT BUSINESS WE THEN STARTED TO WELL MY OWN EXPECTATION OF WHAT LIKE THAT TO LOOK LIKE OKAY SO WE HAD CONTROL OF THE PRODUCTION AND THE END RESULT AND YES I THINK WE NEED TO ENGAGE WITH A FEW PEOPLE JUST FOR HOUSING TRUST TO SEE IF THERE'S MONIES AVAILABLE. BUT I THINK THAT DISCUSSION IS JUST STARTING TO DEVELOP BECAUSE WE TO MAKE SURE THAT WE HAVE THE SAME RESULTS THAT WE HAVE SET COMMUNITY UP TO EXPECT AND I AGREE AS FAR AS THE ARE CONCERNED THAT YOU KNOW WE LOOK THIS ALL HOUSING UNDERSTAND HOW THE PRIVATE SECTOR IS IS HELPING AND I WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT I'M ALL A FINE PRIVATE SECTOR BECAUSE IT'S ONE THING FOR US TO COME IN AND PUT 30 UNITS ON THE GROUND, ANOTHER THING FOR ONE INDIVIDUAL TO OFFER TO THE POLICE AS AFFORDABLE AS WELL. OKAY. SO THERE'S LOT OF DIVERSITY WHEN IT COMES TO WHAT THE PRIVATE SECTOR LOOKS LIKE AND WHAT THERE MAY BE SOME GAPS THAT WE NEED TO HELP TO STIMULATE THE PRIVATE SECTOR SO HOW WE FLESH THAT OUT AND CPAS I'M NOT QUITE SURE I'M GIVING YOU A GOOD DIRECTION AS FAR AS THE WORDS ON THE PAPER BUT I JUST THINK THAT ONE UNIT IN MY MIND IS JUST AS IMPORTANT AS 150 AS LONG AS IT'S INTENTIONAL ABOUT HAVING ON THE GROUND I'M AT A TO JUST FOLLOW UP ON SOME THINGS I'D LIKE TO RESPOND IF I MAY SO WHEN WE DID THIS EXERCISE BACK IN FEBRUARY THE STRANGE AND TRAGIC PLAN WITH THE OF THE BLUE EXERCISE WERE THIS TWO GREEN DOTS OR WORKFORCE HOUSING OH OH TWO GREEN DOT OUT OF SEVEN PEOPLE WHO HAVE FIVE DOTS TO START OFF WITH AS I RECALL AND IT RECEIVED AND THIS WAS THE FIRST OPPORTUNITY FOR THIS TO STAND UP AND SAY WHAT REALLY MATTERS TO THEM AND ONLY TWO GREEN DOTS SHOWED UP IN TERMS OF BLUE DOTS WHICH WAS THE ONE THAT WE GOT THAT WAS TO HIGHLIGHT THE THING WAS THE MOST IMPORTANT TO US NONE IT RECEIVED. 
          NOW I'M SITTING HERE LISTENING TO A LITANY OF OF HOW IMPORTANT ALL OF THIS IS AND HOW WE CAN FLUSH IT OUT AT THE WORKSHOP. WELL, WE'RE HERE SETTING A STRATEGIC PLAN NOW AND THE EXERCISE THAT WE DID THE RESULTS ARE IN WITH REGARD TO THE IMPORTANCE OF THIS TOPIC I ,I ALSO AM HEARING AND I'D LIKE TO HIGHLIGHT THAT I'M HEARING IT FROM FROM BOTH PATSY AND ALEX THAT WERE THERE ALREADY THE CONTRARY TO WHAT WE SAY OUR MAYOR AND ALL OF US INCLUDED THAT IT'S NOT IMPORTANT THROUGH THE AND THAT WE WON'T HAVE HOUSING AUTHORITY 
          [04:35:03]
OR HOUSING DEPARTMENT IN HILTON HEAD THAT WE'RE ALREADY THERE THIS IS EXPANSION OF GOVERNMENT IN THE WORST WAY IT'S MISSION CREEP IT WAS OKAY WHEN WE'RE SPENDING OTHER PEOPLE'S MONEY. 
          INDEED THAT'S HOW IT GOT STARTED BUT NOW WE'RE GOING TO SLIP MAKING IT A REALITY AND USING TAXPAYER FOR SOMETHING THAT EVEN THIS COUNCIL SAID WAS NOT A PRIORITY ONLY HOW MANY MONTHS OR MONTHS AGO? I ALSO HEARD AND I'M NOT GOING TO SIT HERE AND ALLOW THAT TO HAPPEN I ALSO HEARD SOMETHING THAT I WAS UNAWARE OF MAYBE SOMEONE CLARIFY THIS FOR ME THAT BRYANT ROAD IS UNDER THE CDC NOW WHEN DID THAT HAPPEN AND WHAT DID I MISS OR MAYBE I MISUNDERSTOOD WHEN THAT COMMENT WAS MADE BUT BRYANT ROAD WAS PURCHASED WITH TAXPAYER AND THE TOWN COUNCIL IS PROGRAMING ANYTHING THAT HAPPENS THERE SO IF THERE'S SOMETHING THAT'S HAPPENED SOMEONE SHOULD INFORM ME BECAUSE I DON'T THINK I AGREE WITH THAT. 
          SO WE HAVE TO STAND UP FOR WHAT IT IS THAT WE SAID INITIALLY AND THAT WE'VE SAID CONTINUOUSLY AND NOT BE SITTING HERE WITH TWO VOICES TELLING US WE'RE ALREADY THERE. 
          THE TRAIN IS DOWN THE ROAD. WE LEFT YOU GUYS AND BEHIND AND DIDN'T EVEN KNOW IT AND OTHER COMMENTS EXACTLY WHAT STARTED THIS MEETING OUT WITH A ABSOLUTELY RIGHT THAT'S THE WAY WE STARTED THIS THING IN OUR OH I DON'T KNOW I DON'T KNOW IF WE HAVE ANOTHER MEETING TWO WEEKS FROM NOW TO FLIP AGAIN SO I'M TIME BREAKS ON WHAT WE SAID WE WERE GOING TO DO AND WHAT WE SAID WE WERE GOING TO DO IN OUR WORKSHOP AND FEBRUARY IS NOT WHAT WE'RE DOING RIGHT NOW SO WE WILL MISS JONES SO I HOPE THAT PLAN OH MY GOSH LET ME JUST SAY FIRST I MEAN WE CAN GO TO PROCESS I'M HAPPY TO DO THAT WE'RE WE'RE IN CONTENT NOW AND THERE'S THE LIVELY DEBATE ABOUT WHAT SHOULD OR EVERY YOU KNOW EVERY ONE OF THESE EXERCISES AND STEVE I THINK TO YOUR POINT MY BET IS IF WE RUN THROUGH ALL EXERCISES OVER MULTIPLE MONTHS THAT WE'RE GOING TO SEE THINGS MOVE AROUND A LITTLE BIT RIGHT . I SAID TO NINE WE TALK ABOUT ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT OF A COUNCIL MEMBERS TODAY DEFINE ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT FOR ME OUR ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT MIGHT BE NUMBER ONE WHEN WE GET TO A FORM DEFINITION OF ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT OR OR IF WE COULD GET TO A UNIFORM DEFINITION OF ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT IT MIGHT DROP TO NUMBER OF THREE OR FOUR OR SOME SUPPORTIVE OF HOUSING. 
          BUT NOW I'M READING WHAT HOUSING IS OUT ENGAGEMENT IN HOUSING AND THAT MOSTLY FEELS DIFFERENT THAN DOTS ON A BOX THAT SAID HOUSE ALL RIGHT AND SO THE CHALLENGE ALWAYS HAPPENS WHEN THE RUBBER MEETS THE ROAD GRANT THAT'S A DIFFERENT QUESTION THAN THE QUESTION THAT YOU ORIGINALLY POSTED. HOW DID THESE GET FROM ONE THROUGH TEN? WE'RE GOING TO GET TO TWO PUTTING THESE THINGS IN ONE AND TO PUTTING THESE THINGS IN ONE THROUGH TEN ORDER. AND I'LL PROMISE YOU AT O'CLOCK TODAY WHEN WE'RE PUTTING THESE THINGS IN ONE THROUGH TEN ORDER, WE TO HAVE A PROCESS WE HAVE TO HAVE A WAY OF DOING THAT. WE'RE GOING TO PUT THAT IN FRONT OF YOU. 
          IT'S OUT A RESULT. IT'S GOING TO LAND ON PAPER AND A MONTH FROM NOW YOU MIGHT NOT FEEL 100% NO DAY TO DAY I DON'T I WOULD GIVE EVERYONE JUST THE THE THE ARRANGEMENT TO THOUGHTFUL OF WHERE YOU TODAY WITH WHAT YOU HAVE IN FRONT OF YOU IT'S FORMED BY WHAT'S BEEN GOING ON AT THE TOWN LEVEL RECENTLY IT'S BEEN INFORMED BY THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN HAS BEEN INFORMED BY THE EXERCISES ENGAGED IN A FEW MONTHS AGO I I'LL TELL YOU ANY ONE EXERCISE IS NOT A IT'S NOT A GREAT OF OF WHERE WE'LL BE IN PERPETUITY OR WILL BE I AGREE WITH THAT I MEAN CAN I JUST LOOK AT IT I'LL LOSE IT. I PRESUME THAT'S GOING ON THIS PARTICULAR ITEM IS THE ONLY ITEM THAT THE CHECKMARKS ON EVERY ACTION AND 26 ON IT TELLS 
          [04:40:09]
ME THAT IF STAFF PREPARED THIS US IT TELLS ME THAT WE'LL HAVE AND I THINK IT'S UPON US TODAY IF WE WANT TO ABANDON THE PROGRAM AND IT'S GOING TO TAKE AN ACT OF THIS COUNCIL TO ABANDON WHAT WORK IS ALREADY BEING WORKED ON I THINK WE JUST NEED TO BE VERY UPFRONT WITH OURSELVES ABOUT THAT WOULD BE DIFFERENT IF WE WERE LOOKING AT THIS PAGE AND EVERYTHING WAS IN IF WE HAD 28 WE HAVE A DISCUSSION ABOUT THIS THE DIRECTION WE WANT TO GO WITH HERE LET'S THIS IS NOT CORRECT WELL I AND THAT'S THE STAFF THE STAFF PUT THIS TOGETHER BASED ON FEBRUARY CORRECT. MY CORRECT. WE PUT IT TOGETHER. 
          YES. AND ALSO BASED UPON THE WORK WE'RE ALREADY DOING RIGHT. 
          Y'ALL DIDN'T SAY STOP RIGHT. I UNDERSTAND A STOP YOU YOU'RE ALREADY DOING ALL OF THIS BECAUSE YOU DIDN'T ANYTHING BASED OFF OF FEBRUARY SURELY. OH, I'LL PARAPHRASE SAYS FINDING HOME PLAN ALIGN THE HOUSING ACTION COMMITTEE THE TOWN COUNCIL EXPECTATIONS I THINK YOU KNOW TRULY BEING FAIR TO THE VOLUNTEERS THAT SIGN UP TO BE A PART OF THE HOUSING COMMITTEE AND REALIZING WHAT GOALS IN THE STRATEGIC PLAN ARE POTENTIALLY DIFFERENTLY THAN THEY'RE SITTING AT THE TABLE TRYING TO ASK ME OR ASK MY TEAM TO ME TO YOU TO DO RIGHT. 
          THAT'S VERY IMPORTANT. SO IT SAYS FINDING HOME ALIGN THE COMMITTEE ADVANCED NORTH POINT GET STARTED BRYAN IN ALIGNMENT WITH THE NSP WE TALKED ABOUT THAT HOUSING FUNDS SUSTAINABILITY WHICH HAS BEEN A BIG DIRECTIVE TO ME PUBLICLY SO I PUT IT IN HERE FOR CONSIDERATION GRANT FUNDING FOR HOME REPAIR AND LATERAL CONNECTION PROGRAMS A WORKFORCE HOUSING INDEX TO MR. HUNTER'S POINT THAT MEASURES ALL HOUSING AND IT COMPARES WITH WAGE I THINK I THINK THE PRICE OF HOUSE WENT UP OVER TIME BUT DID THE PRICE OF WAGE GO UP OVER TIME AND THAT'S IT PARTICIPATED IN A HOUSING AND REPORT OUR PROGRESS SO WE'RE ALREADY DOING THOSE TO MY TO MY POINT WITH THE EXCEPTION OF THE SUSTAINABILITY AND THE FUNDING THAT'S TRULY SUSTAINABLE AND THAT'S AND THAT'S A BIG TOPIC TO TALK YES YOU KNOW THAT'S TO MY POINT SO I THINK FEBRUARY SO I'M THINKING THIS WAS DISCUSSED I REMEMBER ALL THIS BEING DISCUSSED IN FEBRUARY SO WHAT HAPPENS WHEN OUR TOWN MANAGER SAID WE'RE ALREADY DOING ALL THIS STUFF RIGHT HERE EVERYONE THAT WORKFORCE HOUSING IS IMPORTANT UP AND VOTE YOU DON'T PUT WORKFORCE HOUSING IN ON YOUR OWN YOU'RE NOT BECAUSE IT'S ALREADY IT'S ALREADY HAPPENING SO NOTHING WE COME UP WE COME IN TO ZERO IN FEBRUARY WORKFORCE AND A COUPLE OF THESE OTHER ONES IN HERE ARE THE SAME WAY IT'S IT DEPENDS ON HOW MARKET MET BLINDS IT TO US BEFORE WE STAND UP WITH OUR DOTS ALL RIGHT SO IF THEY WERE TOTALLY QUIET AND SAID YOU GUYS WORK IT OUT IT WOULD HAVE BEEN TOTALLY DIFFERENT ARCS AS THE STEPS ALREADY HAPPENING. 
          WELL OF COURSE I'M NOT GOING TO VOTE. I DON'T NEED TO ADD TO IT ALREADY HAPPENING. RIGHT. THAT'S HOW WE GOT TO WHERE WE ARE TODAY. BUT I WOULD ALSO ASK THAT AND AGAIN WE'RE ONE PROCESS FOR CONCEPT. I WOULD ALSO ASK THAT THE BOARD REMEMBER ANOTHER CAVEAT THAT WE PUT OUT THERE THAT THIS DOT EXERCISE I UNDERSTAND WHERE YOU'RE GOING, WHERE YOU'RE COMING FROM OUR STRATEGIC PLAN BECAUSE WE'VE GOT A LOT OF YOU GOT PEOPLE HERE THAT UNDERSTAND OH I MEAN THAT THAT CAN'T BE A SINGULAR REFERENDUM ON THE ENTIRE PLANNING PROCESS. 
          RIGHT. WELL BUT IT IS IT IS A TEMPERATURE THAT'S A GREAT WAY TO SAY IT'S A TEMPERATURE AND IF THE TEMPERATURE WAS HERE WAS WAS TO RISE AS TO WHAT WE HEAR TODAY AND THE COMMITMENT TO SOMETHING THAT EVERYONE HAS SAID IS NOT A PRIORITY IN TERMS OF ESTABLISHING A DEPARTMENT EXTEND TO TAKING TAXPAYER MONEY AND FURTHERING THIS WORK THAT WAS ESTABLISHED IF THE DOTS WEREN'T IMPORTANT, IF IT WASN'T THERE TO DETERMINE THEN WHY DID WE DO IT? ARE THERE BETTER TO HAVE DONE IT? PERHAPS BUT I DON'T RECALL THAT WITH MARK SAID THAT WE'VE DOING ALL OF THIS SO WE ALL JUST IGNORED IT THAT DIDN'T ACTUALLY HAPPEN THAT THAT INFORMATION PUT OUT THERE IN FEBRUARY. 
          SO I'M NOT GOING TO ACCEPT THAT AS A REASON FOR WHY THE DOTS WEREN'T DISPLAYED IN A WAY THAT 
          [04:45:05]
NOW EVERYONE'S SAYING WE'RE NOT EVERYONE TO BE IN TO THINK IS SHOULD RESULT IN A POLITICALLY SENSITIVE OF MOVEMENT TOWARDS AN EXPANSION OF GOVERNMENT IN DISAGREEMENT WITH WHAT EVERYONE HAS SAID INCLUDING OUR MAYOR AS WE ARE AND AND I'M NOT GOING TO ACCEPT THAT WE'RE ALREADY THERE SO JUST KEEP ROLLING THE DRAIN THAT'S THAT IS BAD GOVERNMENT THAT IS BAD GOVERNANCE AND THAT IS JUST NOT SOMETHING THAT I'LL SIT HERE QUIETLY AND ACCEPT. THIS COUNCIL IS BEING DRIVEN BY POLITICALLY AGENDAS BY A FEW YOU CAN GO BACK TO THOSE 15 STRATEGIC PLANS FROM THE LAST TIME WE DID THIS EXERCISE WHEN A NEW COUNCIL WAS HERE AND HOW DID THAT HAPPEN? BECAUSE EVERY TIME SOMEONE RAISED THEIR HAND IT WAS WRITTEN DOWN. 
          IT WAS PUT IN. WE DIDN'T HAVE THIS TYPE OF DISCUSSION IS THIS TYPE OF DISCUSSION I DON'T THINK MANY PEOPLE ARE COMFORTABLE WITH IT AT ALL BUT I'LL BE HONEST WHEN I HAVE IT AND I'LL TELL YOU THAT THIS IS EXACTLY HISTORY AND WHERE WE ARE AND I'M GOING TO PROTECT THE FACT THAT HILTON HEAD ISLAND IS A LIMITED GOVERNMENT AND WE'VE AGREED THAT WE'RE NOT GOING INTO THE HOUSING BUSINESS THAT WE HAVE ESTABLISHED THAT WE ARE GOING TO WORK WITH YOU FOR JASPER COUNTY HOUSING TRUST AND PROVIDE THEM WITH THE DOLLARS TO TAKE CARE OF SOME OF THIS WORK THAT HAS BEEN DEEMED IMPORTANT AND OKAY. 
          BUT ALL OF THIS IN THE DISCUSSION THAT'S BEEN HAD HERE ABOUT WHERE WE'RE HEADING DOWN THIS ROAD I'M NOT GOING TO SIT HERE QUIETLY AND JUST ACCEPT THAT THERE WERE TWO DOTS WHICH APPARENTLY WAS AN IMPORTANT MEASURE TO CREATE A TEMPERATURE READING AND THERE WERE NO DOT BLUE DOTS AND THOSE WHO ARE ARGUING RIGHT NOW ARE ARGUING AGAINST WHAT THEY THEMSELVES THE TEMPERATURE THEY SET THEMSELVES BACK IN FEBRUARY. AND SO ALL THAT A MONTH EARLIER AND THAT ABOUT A MONTH EARLIER WE A SURVEY FOR THE NOW THAT SURVEY I WANT TO SAY BASED ON MY OWN LAUNDRY ON 60% 66% OF THE NUMBER 56% OF LOCALS THAT SAYS THIS IS A PRIORITY FOR THE BAND THAT'S A REVIEW I THINK THE WAY I DO THAT WAS THE SCORES OF THEM. 
          HOW HAVE HOW PEOPLE PROCESS THAT THERE'S THAT AND LOOKING AT IN TIME MANAGEMENT BASED ON WHAT GIVEN TO ALL OF THOSE PLANS ALL OF THE EVERY PLACARD THAT WAS UP THERE INCLUDING WORKFORCE HOUSING THOSE ALL JUST CAME FROM THE PRIOR STRATEGIC PLAN AS AN EVALUATION OF PRIOR SO YEAH IT'S A POINT IN TIME MEASUREMENT WHY WHY IT'S SO PAINFUL A LOT OF WHAT'S GOING ON SO I WOULD ENCOURAGE YOU WE'RE GOING TO HAVE ENOUGH IN OPPORTUNITY TODAY. 
          I HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY TO DO THAT THAT AND DON'T I'M GETTING READY TO IT. 
          I'VE BEEN TRYING SAY SOMETHING FOR A MINUTE AND I HAVEN'T BEEN ALLOWED TO SORRY. 
          I'LL BE I'LL BE BRIEF ON THIS. THERE IS A DIRECTIVE THAT'S COMING DOWN FROM THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT THAT ALL THINGS EVERYTHING IS BEING PUSHED DOWN TO THE LOCAL LEVEL BEING PUSHED, THE STATE BEING PUSHED ,COUNTY BEING PUSHED TO MUNICIPALITY 7.5 IS 7.5 SAYS ASSESSES IT DOESN'T SAY IMPLEMENT THEIR ESTABLISH BUT ASSESSES THE HOUSING FUNDS SUSTAINABILITY AND MULTI-YEAR INVESTMENT STRATEGY BY IDENTIFYING DIVERSE RECURRING FUNDING SOURCES. WE KNOW THAT OUR BIGGEST CHALLENGE THAT WE HAVE RIGHT NOW IS WORKFORCE HOUSING. IF WE'RE NOT AT THE TABLE THEN WE ARE ABSENT COMPLETELY. 
          WHATEVER SUBSIDIES OR WHATEVER IS GIVEN FOR THE BENEFIT OF HOUSING IS GOING TO COST MONEY. WE'RE NOT SAYING WE'RE WE'RE USING TAXPAYER DOLLARS. 
          [04:50:02]
DO WE USE A TAX DOLLAR FROM THE STATE TO FUND THIS? THIS IS TO ASSESS WHERE ON JULY 29TH WE'RE HAVING A WORKSHOP DISCUSS EXACTLY THE HOUSING PROGRAM THAT WE HAVE IS PROBABLY GOING TO CHANGE FORM A LITTLE BIT AT THAT. I THINK THAT WE NEED TO MOVE ON WITH THIS. I'M OKAY WITH ASSESSING IT BECAUSE I WE NEED TO UNDERSTAND WHAT ARE THOSE OPPORTUNITIES. ONE OF THOSE OPTIONS OH OKAY THEN WOULD YOU BE AGREEABLE IN A NEGOTIATION TO REMOVING ESTABLISH A MULTI YEAR INVESTMENT STRATEGY BECAUSE THIS DOCUMENT ISN'T GOING TO HAPPEN THAT JULY. I'LL BE FINE WITH THAT AND IT'S BEING DONE NOW VOTED ON BEFORE THAT I'LL BE FINE WITH ASSESS AND EXPLORE AND EXPLORE BUT ALSO WANT TO POINT OUT AS YOU WERE TALKING ABOUT THE VARIOUS WAYS OF FUNDING THESE THINGS, IT PUTS US SQUARELY WHERE YOU SAID YOU DIDN'T WANT TO BE THAT WHERE WE WEREN'T AND LET ME JUST FINISH MY THOUGHT THIS TIME AND I APOLOGIZE IF. I WAS THE ONE WHO WAS HOLDING YOU UP FROM SPEAKING BEFORE. BUT THE THE IDEA OF USING A TAX MONEY WHILE I UNDERSTAND THE BROAD CONCEPT UNDERNEATH IT IS THAT MONEY IS NOT COMING OUT OF A VACUUM WHERE IT'S COMING OUT OF SOMETHING ELSE WE'RE ALREADY FUNDING. SO ALL THOSE WHO ARE REALLY EXCITED USING THAT MONEY TO ESTABLISH SOME SORT OF FUND FURTHER SOMETHING WE SAID WE WEREN'T GOING TO DO AND HAVE MORE MISSION CREEP IN GOVERNMENT GROWTH NOW ALL UNDERSTAND THAT IS COMING OUT OF SOMETHING THAT ALREADY EXISTS WELL IN A WAY TAKING AWAY FROM THOSE BECAUSE YOU'RE OKAY WITH THAT JUST JUST TO JUST TO BE CLEAR AS WE TALK ABOUT GETTING GRANTS FOR THE REPAIR PROGRAM GOING TO THE STATE HOUSING IS COMING THROUGH DEED STAMPS AND EVERY REAL ESTATE TRANSFER IS A TAX THAT PAYS FOR THAT. 
          SO IT'S ALWAYS COMING FROM SOMEWHERE AND WE'RE LOOKING TO ASSESS THOSE DIFFERENT AREAS AND AVENUES TO UNDERSTAND WHAT'S BENEFICIAL OR NOT BENEFICIAL. 
          WHAT'S MEETS OUR VALUES DOESN'T MEET OUR VALUES. SO THAT'S WHY I'M COMPLETELY OPEN TO ASSESS AND ESTABLISH AND EXPLORE, RIGHT? I'M FINE WITH THAT. 
          BUT WE RELYING ON COUNTY JASPER FOR THESE WE WE HAVE HAD GENERAL DISCUSSIONS REGARDING THAT AND NOTHING HAS BEEN DECIDED WE JUST LOOKS LIKE WE'RE GOING TO SEAL THE WE JUST VOTED ON SIGNING THAT DOCUMENT LAST WEEK OR THAT WAS THAT WE AGREED AND WE'VE WE HAD CONVERSATIONS ABOUT JASPER HOUSING TRUST AND HOW TO MOVE FORWARD WITH DIFFERENT PROGRAMS THEM BUT NOTHING HAS BEEN FORMALIZED AND I SUGGEST JUST YOU KNOW AS A MEASURE I PASSIONATE OPINIONS AND YOU'LL BE ABLE CERTAIN ACTIONS AND VOTE YOUR POSITION HAPPY THAT THIS IS LESS THAN A HANDFUL OF US TO VOTE AS A PARTICULAR GROUP BUT I FEEL LIKE WE HAVE WE MIGHT HAVE CONSENSUS HERE OF UNANIMOUS CONSENT IF SOMEONE FEELS LIKE WE DON'T HAVE CONSENSUS WE'LL HAVE NO CHANCE AS TO WHAT DEGREE CONSENSUS ACTION ITEMS AS PRESENTED WITH THE EXCEPTION OF US HOUSING FUNDS SUSTAINABILITY AND EXPLORE A MULTI-YEAR STRATEGY THAT WOULD BE THIS CHANGE THAT'S A MATTER OF HOPE. AND THEN THEY PULLED THOSE WERE OPERATIONAL 787I ALREADY AS LANGUAGE BEEN CHANGED IN TERMS OF 711 RATHER THAN COLLABORATE REMOVING THAT AND RATHER THAN REVIEW REPORT AND AND STEVE LIKE THE QUESTION BECAUSE YEAH WELL THERE THOSE OF US WHO TALK A LOT AND I WILL FIGHT FOR WHAT WE BELIEVE AND BECAUSE THAT'S WHY WE WERE ELECTED TO SIT HERE NOT EVERYTHING HERE I WOULD HATE TO VOTE NO ON THIS ENTIRE PACKAGE BECAUSE THERE'S THINGS THAT IN HERE THAT I WILL CONTINUE TO ARGUE THAT WELL WE OUGHT TO BE AT THE TABLE AND WHILE WORKFORCE HOUSING IS IMPORTANT THAT'S A BROAD THING EVERYBODY SAYS THAT IT'S WHAT DOES IT MEAN? WHAT ACTUALLY DOING TODAY. 
          I KNOW BUT I'M JUST SAYING WE'RE GETTING TO THE POINT THIS AND WHEN ARE WE GOING TO REVIEW THIS AGAIN? I MEAN WHAT COMES OUT OF HERE TODAY IS, WHAT WE'RE VOTING ON BUDGET YOU HAVE A BUDGET VERY FEW OF YOU AGREE ON EVERY ALLOCATION AND EVERY LINE ITEM BUDGET YOU VOTE FOR IT BECAUSE IT IT'S SOMETHING THAT YOU CAN PROVIDE OVERALL SUPPORT RECOGNIZING THAT LATER I'M GOING TO HAVE A VOTE TO OFFICIALLY ACTUALLY ABOUT THIS 
          [04:55:02]
RIGHT. SO YOU CAN CERTAINLY VOTE IN FAVOR OF THE STRATEGIC ACTION PLAN AND THEN LATER WHEN MARK BRINGS YOU THE ALLOCATION FOR THE WORKFORCE HOUSING FUND, YOU CAN I TOLD YOU RIGHT IN THE RIGHT IN SESSION I WASN'T GOING TO VOTE FOR THAT ONE SO I'M NOT GOING TO VOTE FOR THAT ONE. YOU DON'T. ONE BITE AT THE APPLE ON THE BIGGEST CHUNK OF THE ACTION ITEMS IN THIS DOCUMENT THAT SITS ON A SHELF THAT SOMEONE CAN PULL OFF AND SAYS OH LOOK, THIS IS WHAT I'M SUPPOSED TO DO AND THAT'S WHAT THIS DOCUMENT FOR ADOPTION THAT WE THOUGHT THAT WAS GOING TO HAPPEN. I JUST WANT HAPPENS GO AHEAD OF STUFF SO WE'RE AT THE LAST PAGE WHICH AIMS TO PARTICIPATE YES THE DEBATE AND REPORT THAT'S PERFECT. IT'S GOING TO BE ON THE LEFT. THAT'S FINE. 
          I'M STRUGGLING WITH THE 7.5 CHANGE OH RESA I AM ON A MUNICIPAL BUDGET ON IDENTIFIED AS HOUSING SO DOESN'T MOVE IN THE WORD ESTABLISH AND I'M STRUGGLING WITH THAT BECAUSE WE'RE GOING RIGHT AGAINST WHAT WE JUST AGREED ON A COUPLE OF WEEKS AGO. 
          OKAY SO TO ME THE WORDSMITHING IS JUST SORT OF BONDING TO EACH ONE OF OUR INDIVIDUAL ALL POLITICAL IF YOU WANT WHATEVER IT IS BUT INSTEAD I THINK WE NEED TO TO FACE THE MUSIC AND IF WE GET TO ONE WHERE WE'RE READY TO ADOPT WE WANT TO SCRATCH IT BECAUSE WE WANT TO ESTABLISH A FUND THEN I THINK WE DO THAT THEN VERSUS WORDSMITHING NOW WHICH IS TOTALLY AGAINST WE JUST ACCOMPLISHED A COUPLE OF WEEKS AGO IT'S JUST THE CONVERSATION AND YES THERE ARE A COUPLE OF US THAT'LL BE A VERY VOCAL ABOUT IT. 
          YOU'RE RIGHT BUT IT IS THIS I THINK IS A REALITY THAT THERE'S ONLY A COUPLE OF US THAT DISAGREE WHOLEHEARTEDLY ON THE DIRECTION. SO I THINK YOU'RE BOXING US IN AT A MOMENT THAT. WE DON'T NEED TO BE BOXED IN. I'M SORRY PEOPLE RELY ON OTHER PEOPLE TO SPEAK FOR THEM BUT WE KNOW THAT WHAT MATT MATT SUGGESTED WAS THAT WHEN WE HAVE A BUDGET OR SUCH THERE MIGHT BE THINGS IN THERE THAT WE DON'T AGREE WITH. 
          RIGHT. BUT YES, WE AGREE OVERALL AND WE RAISE HAND AND SO TO YOUR TO YOUR POINT THAT DOESN'T MEAN I THINK YOU TRYING TO SAY WE ALL SAT HERE AND RAISED OUR HAND TO APPROVE THE BUDGET. WE DID NOT RAISE YOUR HAND AND APPROVE THE BUDGET AND AGREE THAT EVERYTHING WITHIN IT WAS SOMETHING THAT WE WERE 100% SUPPORTING AND SO TO TRY TO ALIGN THAT WITH THIS TO SAY THAT WE ALL AGREED ON A HOUSING FUND IS INCORRECT AND SO I HOPE I STATED THAT CLEARLY IF I MIGHT IF I MIGHT THERE'S 7.5 IS WRITTEN THE WAY IT IS 7.5 HAS BEEN THROWN OUT IS ASSESS AND EXPLORE. I'LL THROW OUT ONE MORE ASSESS HOUSING FUND SUSTAINABILITY AND A MULTI-YEAR INVESTMENT STRATEGY BY IDENTIFYING A DIVERSE RECURRING AND SO ON THAT JUST SIMPLIFIES A LITTLE BIT AND WE'VE GOT TO MOVE ON OFF OF ASSESSING ALL OF IT. SO WHAT YOU'RE SAYING THAT'S WHAT I'M SAYING. 
          I'M FINE WITH THAT TOO. THAT'S WHAT I'M SAYING AND IT'S YES WE'VE GOT IT IN THE BUDGET FOR 24 FISCAL YEAR 26 BUT THIS IS LOOKING AS TO HOW WE GO FORWARD IF WE CONTINUE TO FUND IT WHAT THOSE FUNDING STRATEGIES SO AND I THINK THAT'S WHAT WE NEED TO ASSESS IS EVERYBODY GOOD WITH THAT? I NEED TO GO ON THE RECORD I AGREE WITH MR. BROWN I LIKE THE WORD ESTABLISHED BECAUSE THAT'S WHAT I'D LIKE TO DO. I THINK THAT'S IMPORTANT FOR OUR COMMUNITY AND ALL THE INFORMATION THAT I HAVE RECEIVED FROM THE COMMUNITY AS WORKFORCE BECAUSE SO MUCH OF BLUE DOT THERE ALMOST ALL OF IT'S CLEAR I CAN'T STOP I CAN I LOOK TO THE CONSULTANT I WANT TO ASK WE SPENT 15 HOURS IN FEBRUARY. 
          HOW MUCH TIME DO WE WITH OUR DOTS? 30 MINUTES. 
          YOU HAVE SAID YOU AND YOU'VE SAID MORE THAN WHAT I THINK THREE TIMES YOU SAID NO ONE EXERCISE IS THE ONE YOU RELY ON FOR ESTABLISHING OUR DRAFT PLAN AND IF WE RELY ON THOSE DOTS AGAIN, I HOPE YOU'RE NOT GOING TO USE DOTS TO PRIORITIZE THIS AFTERNOON. 
          THANK YOU. THANK YOU. BEYOND THAT MAYOR, I THINK YOUR QUESTIONS ON THE FLOOR. YOU KNOW, IF ASKED IS ARE THERE OTHERS WHO ACT TO ASSESS 
          [05:00:04]
HOUSING FUND SUSTAINABILITY AND THEN WE'LL HEAR ABOUT ANSWERS AND I AGREE WITH MR. BROWN AND I BUT I THINK THAT APPROACH IS ALSO ON I SUPPORT THE MAYOR'S PROPOSAL ALL RIGHT I THINK WE'RE AT CONSENSUS SO NOW I'M GOING TO OPEN IT UP FOR PUBLIC COMMENT AND I ASKED IF YOU KNOW, IF YOU'RE THINKING LET'S GET TO THE POINT AND IF SO WE CAN CONTINUE IF ANYBODY TO SPEAK ON GETTING JUST A LITTLE STORY AND MAYBE A LITTLE BIT OF A CHECK. 
          I LIVE ON A STREET IN HP OF 20 HOUSES IN THE 40 YEARS THAT I'VE LIVED HERE, FIVE OF THEM HAVE TURNED OVER ALL TO THE GENERATION ALLOW ME ALL TO PEOPLE WHO ARE WORKING ON THE ISLAND WHERE CHILDREN HERE SCHOOL CHILDREN ALSO I WOULD LIKE YOU TO KNOW MY HOUSE A WORKFORCE HOUSING HOUSE MY HUSBAND WORKS THANK YOU ALL THE COMMENTS ALL RIGHT GOING PLACE DESERVE SOME FACTS DESERVE AND CELEBRATE GULLAH HERITAGE THIS IS ANOTHER ONE THAT YOU SEEM TO THE GOAL AND STRATEGY ON ANY ISSUES WITH THE GOLDEN STRATEGY AS STATED AFTER I REMIND OUR VIEWERS YOU SEE THOSE QUESTIONS ANY OF THE ACTION ITEMS IN FRONT OF US ARE SUGGESTIONS FOR UPDATES, CHANGES, ACTIONS COMING SO HISTORIC NEIGHBORHOODS WE ALL KNOW WHERE THEY ARE. THEY'RE IDENTIFIED BY LOVELY SIGNS AROUND OUR TOWN BUT NOT ALL OF THEM ARE THE SAME AND I SAY THAT BECAUSE SOME OF THEM STILL RETAIN SOME OF THOSE HISTORIC CULTURAL ASPECTS TO THEM AND THEN OTHERS DON'T THEY HAVE BEEN DEVELOPED AND REDEVELOPED AND SO WHEN WE TALK ABOUT HISTORIC NEIGHBORHOODS CAN'T BE ALL THE SAME FOR ALL OF ALL OF THEM THAT'S ONE THING AND I'D ALSO IMPROVE THE QUALITY OF LIFE IN THE HISTORIC NEIGHBORHOODS 100%. AND SO WHAT IS IT EIGHT ONE WHAT DOES THIS MEAN? I WOULD PRESERVE THE COMMUNITY CHARACTER AND FACILITATE THE WORK OF THE GOING EACH LAND AND CULTURAL FORCE TO PRIORITIZE IMPLEMENTATION OF LAND USE TOOLS AND ZONING STRATEGIES THAT PRESERVE THE COMMUNITY CHARACTER. SO AGAIN SOME OF THOSE NEIGHBORHOODS ARE NOT THE SAME EVEN THOUGH THEY'RE HISTORIC NEIGHBORHOODS AS OTHERS AND SOME OF THE THE IDEAS WITH THAT ARE NOT FITTING FOR ALL OF THOSE NEIGHBORHOODS AND SO THERE SHOULD BE MORE SPECIFICITY TO THAT STATE FOR FACILITATE THE CREATION OF A STABLE FUNDING MODEL AND SUPPORT TERM ORGANIZATION SUSTAINABILITY. 
          OKAY GOING TO HISTORIC NEIGHBORHOODS COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION TALKED ABOUT THIS GOING THROUGH BUDGET THE ANY TAX MONEY PERHAPS AS MODEL BUT WHEN THAT CORPORATION WAS BEING SET UP AGAIN FOR THOSE WHO DON'T KNOW IT WAS IT WAS THE DISCUSSION ALL CENTERED AROUND THAT THE FUNDS WOULD COME FROM GRANTS AND NOT FROM OTHER SOURCES THAT THE TOWN WOULD NOT BE FUNDING IT THROUGH OUR BUDGET. SO I'M CONCERNED THAT WE ONCE AGAIN ARE CHANGING WHAT WE AGREED WAS THE INTENT AND MOVING FORWARD WITH REGARDS TO FUNDING THAT I ALSO WANT TO POINT OUT THAT 8.5 IS ONGOING 8.6 IS ONGOING TO ESTABLISH A CULTURAL ASSET MAPPING LANDMARK RECOGNITION PROGRAM. I BELIEVE THAT THE CDC IS WORKING ON THAT ALREADY SO IT'S ONGOING AND IT IS A A RESPONSIBILITY THAT THE CDC HAS TAKEN ON SO I'M CONCERNED THAT WE'RE MESHING TOGETHER THE CORPORATIONS WORK WITH THE TOWN GOALS AS PRIORITIES. IT'S A SEPARATE DISTINCT CORPORATION ENTITY THAT WAS SET UP SO I DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW WE'RE NOW MIXING THEM WITH THE TOWN SO SOMEONE CAN EXPLAIN 
          [05:05:07]
THAT TO ME I APPRECIATE IT I'M GOOD WITH ALL THE ITEMS THIS IF THIS IS AN OPPORTUNITY FOR US TO HAVE DISCUSSION THIS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN WE GET TO TOWN COUNCIL MEETINGS BECAUSE THE COMMITTEE WORK ISN'T DONE RIGHT EVERYBODY WANTS TO SHORTCUT IT. NOBODY WANTS TO TALK ABOUT THE IMPORTANT IN AN UPFRONT, TRANSPARENT AND HONEST WAY. I'M JUST TIRED OF IT WE'RE HAVING DISCUSSIONS HERE YOU BUT I DON'T LIKE BEING CUT OFF MR. BROWN YEAH. 
          SO I WAS WAITING FOR CHAIRMAN MICHAEL FOR ME I AGAIN I'M NOT QUITE SURE MY POKER FACE WAS WAS WORKING AT I'M LIKE HOUSING. I'M NOT QUITE SURE WHY THIS CONTROVERSIAL I THINK IS A BEAUTIFUL THING THAT THIS COUNCIL HAS EVER EON COUNCIL ECHO BOTH LIVING HISTORIC NEIGHBORHOOD CALLED CHAPLAIN IS TO BE CHAPLAIN PLANTATION BY THE WAY LIVE ON SEPARATE SIDES THE ROAD AND AS YOU CAN TELL WE LOOK AT THINGS THROUGH TOTALLY DIFFERENT LENSES AND EVEN ARGUE THAT IF MY GREAT GREAT GRANDFATHER WAS NOT FOCUSED ON AMEN AND MAYBE THE SHORT TERM RENTAL DISCUSSION THAT WE HAVE AN OVERT SPEECH WOULD NOT HAPPEN BECAUSE AT SOME POINT GAVE THAT MAN AWAY BECAUSE WE COULDN'T IT SO WE HAVING DISCUSSIONS AROUND HOW WE PRESERVE PROTECT GULLAH CULTURE PLEASE DON'T PUT THE LIVING BREATHING COMPONENT OF THAT WHICH IS THE PEOPLE LIKE IN A MUSEUM AS A IS GOING TO THINK OF A SIGN THAT IDENTIFIES THE NEIGHBORHOOD BECAUSE RIGHT THINGS HAVE CHANGED MAINLY BECAUSE OF JUSTIFICATION MAINLY BECAUSE LACK OF INVOLVEMENT IN THE ECONOMICS ON HILTON HEAD YOU TO GO AGAINST THE PEOPLE THE SAME WAY THAT SOME OF THESE ITEMS ARE RUBBING HER THE WRONG WAY DISCOUNTING THEM IS REALLY RUBBING NEITHER ON ME THOUGH I THINK WE'VE LAID OUT CDC TO GIVE US A MORE NIMBLE OPPORTUNITY FOR PRESERVATION OF THE PEOPLE BUT IF WE WANT TO ELIMINATE PEOPLE WHICH SOME ARGUE THAT WAS THE WHOLE INTENT OF THE TOWN HILTON HEAD GET RID OF THE PEOPLE IN THE EXPERIENCE IT WASN'T FITTING INTO THIS SORT OF VISION OF WHAT HILTON HAD COULD BE AND WE SAID TODAY AND I HADN'T HEARD ANYBODY ELSE ON THIS COUNCIL WRESTLE WITH IT BUT IF OTHERS HAVE CONCERNS ABOUT THE DIRECTION I'D LIKE TO HEAR IT. 
          WE CAN HAVE DIALOG AROUND THAT VERSUS JUST COUNCILWOMAN BECKY AND I AT EACH OTHER'S THROATS ABOUT BECAUSE WE LIVE ON TWO SIDES OF THE ROAD AND WE SEE THINGS DIFFERENTLY. 
          WELL MAYOR RESPOND PLEASE. YEAH, I'LL JUST GIVE ME A SECOND BECAUSE THERE WAS A LOT THERE THAT. I THINK I SHOULD RESPOND TO OTHERS TO CHIME IN. 
          OKAY. ARE THERE OTHER COMMENTS? I DON'T I DON'T LIVE ON THAT OF THE ISLAND. I LIVE ON THE SOUTH END OF THE ISLAND WHEN. 
          I THINK GOAL NUMBER EIGHT AND THE ITEMS THAT HAVE BEEN LISTED THERE ARE VERY IMPORTANT FOR US TO ACCOMPLISH. I DON'T WANT THIS TO BECOME INTO A A ARGUMENT BETWEEN COUNCIL MEMBERS. BILL NUMBER EIGHT HAS BEEN, YOU KNOW, A PART OF THE CONVERSATION FOR SEVERAL YEARS. IT'S A CURRENT PART OF THE CONVERSATION AND THE BUDGET HAS BEEN FORWARD AS ITS VALUE AND I'M GOING TO ASK COUNCIL TO GO AROUND AND IF THEY HAVE ANY CHANGES CHALLENGES TO WHAT IS IN THEIR FROM FROM ITEM 1 TO 8. MR. DESMOND, I'LL START WITH 
          [05:10:04]
YOU. WELL, I'LL ASK THAT YOU DON'T DO THAT. 
          OKAY. I WOULD ASK IF YOU HAVE ANY CHANGES OR CORRECTIONS TO YES. 
          BUT I WOULD ASK THAT YOU ALLOW FOR A COMMON CONVERSATION. ABSOLUTELY. 
          AND THEN MAYBE EVERYONE WILL SPEAK OR I'M HAPPY TO SPEAK MORE. 
          I WAS TRYING TO SAY I WAS SUPPORTIVE. THE SIMPLEST WAY I KNOW TO DO IT BUT I REMEMBER WHEN I FIRST CAME ON THE ISLAND TO GO TO A PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING TRYING TO LEARN WHY IN THE WORLD WE APPROVED THESE REALLY TALL GIANT BUILDINGS MONOLITHIC BUILDINGS ALONG THE BEACH. AND THEN I LEARNED THERE WAS GOAL OF GETTING LAND AND CULTURAL PRESERVATION AND TASK FORCE AND SO I STARTED LEARNING A LITTLE BIT MORE ABOUT THAT AND I LEARNED MORE AND MORE ABOUT HOW IMPORTANT THAT IS PRESERVING THE LAND AND THE CULTURE. AND I REMEMBER BEING AT ONE OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION MEETINGS THEN A TOWN COUNCIL MEETING WHEN THE DISCUSSION WAS ABOUT FAMILY AND FAMILY SUBDIVISIONS AND WHEN I LEARNED ABOUT WHAT A FAMILY MEANT AND I REMEMBER A LOT OF THE DISCUSSION ABOUT WHAT IF THIS WHAT IF THAT WHAT IF THIS MEANS THIS WHAT IF WE DO THIS WHAT IF WE DO THAT? AND I SAID I'M TRAINED AS A LAWYER. 
          I CAN ARGUE ALL NIGHT AND ALL DAY THIS OF THAT SIDE IT'S LIKE TRYING TO FIGURE OUT HOW MANY ANGELS CAN DANCE ON THE TOP OF A PINHEAD. YOU CAN SPEND ALL DAY AND ALL NIGHT ABOUT THAT BUT UNLESS UNTIL YOU REALIZE AS MR. BROWN SO ELOQUENTLY IT'S ABOUT THE PEOPLE IT'S ABOUT RECOGNIZE OUR NEIGHBORS. IT'S ABOUT RECOGNIZING THOSE WHO HAVE BEEN HERE BEFORE US. IT'S ABOUT PRESERVING A CULTURE A LIVING BREATHING CULTURE NOT SIGNED MONUMENTS BUT A CULTURE AND RESPECTING THEM. AND IF WE DO NOT HAVE THIS AS OF OUR GOALS, THEN HOW DO WE LOOK OURSELVES IN THE MIRROR AND SAY I TURN BACK ON MY NEIGHBORS, I TURN MY BACK ON AN IMPORTANT CULTURE, I TURN MY BACK ON A CULTURE THAT KNOWS HOW TO RESPECT AND SUSTAIN THE ISLAND BY FARMING, BY FISHING AND BY PRESERVING THE LAND THAT WE NOW VALUE. HOW CAN WE TURN OUR BACKS ON THAT THESE ITEMS RIGHT HERE HELP US AND PRESERVE AND CELEBRATE THE CULTURE WE'VE SAID WE WANT TO CHANGE THE DIRECTION OF THE MARKETING OF THOSE WHO COME TO VISIT US AND ONE OF THE DIRECTIONS IS TO SAY WE ARE GOING TO CELEBRATE TOURISM WE CAN'T JUST I GREW IN WESTERN NORTH CAROLINA AND BLESSED THOSE OF CHEROKEE HERITAGE. IT'S NOT PLEASE COME TO WESTERN NORTH AND GO SEE THE CHEROKEE INDIANS STAND OUT IN FRONT OF YOUR STORES. 
          NOT WHAT THIS IS ABOUT. WE DO NOT WANT TO BE THAT KIND OF COMMUNITY. 
          WE ARE NEIGHBORS AND WE NEED TO RESPECT, PROTECT AND CELEBRATE THIS CULTURE. 
          AND THAT'S WHAT I HAVE TO SAY AT THIS MOMENT THE BEST I CAN EXPRESS IT DON'T ARGUE ABOUT HOW MANY ANGELS CAN DANCE THE TOP OF A CAN BE THE BETTER ANGELS YOURSELF. 
          WELL THAT WAS A LOVELY SPEECH BUT. I'M NOT SURE WHAT IT HAS TO DO WITH GOING AND IN FACT IF ALL OF THAT WAS SO FELT AS A TOP PRIORITY FOR YOU AND WELL I UNDERSTAND IT'S A MOMENT IN TIME PERHAPS WHEN GIVEN THAT CHALLENGE TO IDENTIFY AND TO REALLY ADDRESS IT. THERE WERE TWO DOTS TO GREEN DOTS ON THIS ITEM AND NO BLUE DOTS. SO I QUESTION WE HAVE THINGS NOW DISCUSSED NOT SO INTENSELY I'M GOING TO GO ONE STEP FURTHER PROTECT THE ISLAND CHARACTER THROUGH GROWTH MANAGEMENT GOT FOUR BLUE DOTS FOR PEOPLE THIS DALLAS FELT PASSIONATE ABOUT AND I THINK YOU HEARD THAT SAME THAT SAME CONSISTENCY TODAY WITH REGARD TO GROWTH MANAGEMENT AND CHARACTER OF THE ISLAND. TWO DOTS WERE GIVEN TO ENHANCE THE CORRIDOR IN THE STREETS. 
          SO TWO PEOPLE HERE CONSISTENTLY HAVE SAID THAT AND ONE THAT WAS GIVEN TO ASSESS AND REINFORCE ISLAND RESILIENCE. I'LL BET THAT WAS YOURS, PATSY, BUT YOU DIDN'T FEEL OKAY OKAY. 
          [05:15:01]
WELL, THAT'S GREAT. BUT I JUST HEARD AN IMPASSIONED SPEECH THAT WAS MORE POLITICALLY DRIVEN THAN ANYTHING ELSE FROM YOU BECAUSE WHEN YOU HAD AN OPPORTUNITY TO HIGHLIGHT THAT YOU DIDN'T. NOW LET'S MOVE ON TO THE REAL POINT NOTION HERE AS HAVE HEARD IT HAS SAID THAT WE SHOULD DISCARD GOLD THEY QUITE THE CONTRARY I INVEST SPECIFICALLY HISTORIC NEIGHBORHOODS IT'S BEEN REFLECTED THAT WE BOTH LIVE IN SAME HISTORIC NEIGHBORHOOD AND THE PORTION OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD THAT I LIVE IN HAS BEEN DEVELOPED AND REDEVELOPED THE PORTION OF THAT NEIGHBORHOOD THAT YOU LIVE HAS NOT AND I BELIEVE I SPECIFICALLY SAID THAT THAT THERE SHOULD BE DIFFERENT RULES FOR DIFFERENT SECTIONS OF THOSE NEIGHBORHOODS BASED ON THOSE SAME PARAMETERS I NEVER SAID ANYTHING DIFFERENT THAN THAT TO INSINUATE THAT WAS JUST MISINFORMATION AT ITS FINEST AND DIRECTED AT A BITE I'M SURE IN FACT WHEN WE TALK ABOUT THOSE THINGS I SEE MR. GRAVES HERE THE WE HAVE AREAS PROPERTY ON MARSHLAND ROAD THAT IS ABOUT TO BE SOLD AND DEVELOPED TOLD HIM DEVELOPED SO DON'T TELL ME ABOUT HOW WE'RE NOT TRYING PROTECT IT BECAUSE I AT EVERY TURN HAVE COME TO THIS TOWN ALMOST DAILY ASKING FOR THIS TOWN TO INTERVENE AND TO BUY THAT LAND TO PROTECT AND PRESERVE IT. SO YOUR MISS CHARACTERIZATION OF MY WORK, MY INTENTION AND WHERE FOCUS IS IS NOT APPRECIATED ONCE A SINGLE LITTLE BIT. 
          LET ME ALSO ADD ONE OTHER PIECE OF INFORMATION. TERMS OF LAND MY FAMILY CAME HERE BACK THE LATE 1600S MADE ITS WAY TO WHERE WE HAD 2400 ACRES OF LAND. 
          GUESS WHAT? WE SOLD IT BECAUSE WE COULDN'T FARM IT ANYMORE. 
          I GET IT. DON'T MISCHARACTERIZE ME IN ANY OF THESE CONVERSATIONS YOU WANT TO HAVE A CONVERSATION ABOUT IF YOU WANT TO HAVE A CONVERSATION ABOUT THE RELEVANT FACTS ISSUES I'M HAPPY TO DO IT BUT DO NOT MISCHARACTERIZE MY INTENTIONS. LET'S STOP. 
          LET'S STOP THAT. WE'RE NOT GOING THERE NOW. THANK YOU. 
          OH, AND THE COMMENTS ARE I'LL JUST GET SPECIFIC REGARDING SOME OF THE TACTICS IN HERE. 
          I THINK THAT WAS SOME OF THE FEEDBACK WE WERE LOOKING FOR. SO ON 8.2 I AGREE WITH YOU ALIGNING THE US FORCE WITH THE RIGHT OF UNIFORM VISION AND I THINK THE OPPORTUNITY IS ALSO THERE WITH WHATEVER FORM OF A HOUSING COMMITTEE THAT WE SEE. I JUST FELT THAT THERE WAS A LOT OF TRIPPING OVER EACH OTHER AND INTEGRATION OPPORTUNITIES. I THINK WE SHOULD LOOK AT THAT IN REGARDS TO HOUSING AS WELL SO THAT WE DO HAVE A UNIFORM POINT OF VIEW AND AND I THINK THAT'LL FREE UP RESOURCES AS WELL SO THEY DON'T HAVE TO CONTINUE REPORTING TO EACH GROUP. IF YOU CAN CLEARLY DEFINE WHO'S RESPONSIBLE FOR WHAT FOR WHAT AND I THINK PEOPLE WOULD BE MORE SATISFIED BY THAT TOO ON THOSE COMMITTEES AND THEN 8.3 IS AN OPPORTUNITY FOR ME TO LEARN ABOUT THE PROCESS. I KNOW THAT THIS IS A CDC IT'S A STANDALONE ORGANIZATION YOU HAVE YOUR OWN BOARD OF DIRECTORS. 
          YOU IDENTIFY YOUR STRATEGIC PLAN, HAVE FUNDING AND I'M JUST UNDERSTANDING HOW AND WHEN THAT INTEGRATES WITH THE TOWN AS WELL. SEEMS LIKE SOME OF THE WORK IS DONE INDEPENDENTLY WITHIN THE CDC AND OTHERS MIGHT CREATE MORE INTEGRATION OPPORTUNITIES AND IT'S JUST UNDERSTAND WHAT THAT LOOKS LIKE AS WE MOVE FORWARD IN REGARDS TO IMPLEMENTING THAT STRATEGIC PLAN AND AS I UNDERSTAND IT AS I'VE HEARD SO FAR THERE IS ANSWERS AROUND RETAINING THE I THINK YOU'RE CORRECT THAT'S BASICALLY WHAT WHAT I'VE GATHERED AS WELL AND AS STANDARD I'M GOING TO ASK IF ANYBODY FROM A OF IT WOULD LIKE TO MAKE A COMMENT ON THIS. OKAY. MAY I MAKE A BRIEF COMMENT? OH YES. THANK YOU. THOMAS BOX, THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR OF THE CDC. I WOULD LIKE TO FIRST OF ALL THANK TOWN COUNCIL FOR THE CDC AND FOR OUR BOARD MEMBERS THE MAYOR AND THE MAYOR APPROACH TEM FOR THEIR ONGOING SUPPORT OF THE CDC IN REGARDS TO OUR BUDGET AND THE WAY THAT WE OPERATE. 
          [05:20:01]
OUR FUNDING IS STATE BASED FROM THE STATE OF SOUTH CAROLINA AND IS PART OF INTEGRATED INTO THE TOWN'S OVERALL WE UPON THE FORMATION OF THE CDC. ONE OF THE THINGS THAT I HAD TO DO IN RELATIONSHIP TO ACHIEVING 501C3 STATUS WAS TO GO OUT AND MAKE SURE THAT WE WERE READY AND IN COMPLIANCE WHICH IS SOMETHING THAT I DID IN THE FIRST YEAR OF OPERATIONS. 
          SO NOW WE'RE 501C3 AND WE WILL BE ABLE TO RECEIVE GRANTS ON AN ONGOING BASIS AS PART OF OUR OVERALL FUNDING STRATEGY. SO YOU'RE WRITING EXACTLY THAT. THANK YOU FOR YOUR FEEDBACK COUNCILWOMAN TONER AND THAT PART OF WHAT WE ARE WORKING TO DO IS IMPLEMENT SOME OF THE THE ACTIONS AND ACTIVITIES OF TOWN GOVERNMENT I.E. THE TASK FORCE WHICH IS PART OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION THAT DOES A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF WORK IN OUR HISTORIC NEIGHBORHOODS SUCH AS SUPPORTING THE DEVELOPMENT OF FAMILY COMPOUND AS WELL AS IDENTIFYING AREAS WHERE HAVE NATURALLY OCCURRING AFFORDABLE HOUSING SO THAT WE CAN BEGIN TO POSITIVELY IMPACT SOME THE HOUSING ISSUES THAT EXIST HERE ON THE ISLAND. I'LL STATE THAT IN MY FIRST YEAR HERE WE WERE THRUST AND WITH THE WITH THE WORK OF COLIN AND TOM AND AS IT WERE EVERYBODY AT THE TABLE WE HAD TO IMMEDIATELY THE 278 ISSUE AND SO WHAT I CAN TELL YOU AND THIS WILL BE ON A REPORT THAT COMES TO YOU JULY THE 15TH BUT WHAT I CAN TELL YOU IS THAT AS A DIRECT RESULT OF THE INTERACTIONS THAT I HAD WITH THE STONEY COMMUNITY WE HAVE 51 PRIVATE MEETINGS WITH PROPERTY OWNERS TOTALING 120 HOURS. THAT'S NOT JUST MEETINGS HERE AT TOWN HALL. THAT'S MEETINGS IN LIVING AND DINING ROOM TABLES WITH PEOPLE THAT COULD REMEMBER WHEN THERE WAS A TWO LANE HIGHWAY. SO WE'RE REALLY ACTIVELY WORKING TO MITIGATE WHAT'S GOING ON IN THE STONEY COMMUNITY AND WHAT YOU KNOW MORE WILL COME. YOU KNOW YOU'VE HEARD SOME TALK ABOUT STRATEGIC PLAN A YOU KNOW THAT WILL BE A COMPREHENSIVE LONG TERM PLAN, RIGHT. THAT WE'LL WORK TO IMPLEMENT AND GET PLACE IN BEFORE YOU COME OCTOBER . BUT YOU KNOW, WE'VE TALKED ABOUT RESILIENCE. WE'VE TALKED ABOUT THE WAY CERTAIN AREAS OF THE ISLAND FLOOD THAT THIS PROPORTIONATELY IMPACTS THE STONEY COMMUNITY AND THAT'S SOMETHING THAT WE'LL HAVE FIX. SO SAYING ALL THAT TO SAY BECAUSE I KNOW WE'RE AT A TIME CRUNCH. THANK YOU AGAIN FOR YOUR SUPPORT AND WE'RE GOING TO CONTINUE TO WORK TO SUPPORT THESE HISTORIC NEIGHBORHOODS. THANK YOU. 
          WE HAVE 15 MINUTES. LET'S GO. SO EXIT GOAL IS PROTECTING ENHANCE ENVIRONMENTAL SUSTAINABILITY THE THE GOAL AND THE STRATEGY OR OUR OVERVIEW I'M GOING TO THAT OUR COUNCIL THIS IS NEW THIS IS WORK WE'RE DOING SOME YOU CAN REALLY PUSH BACK TO THE ALAMO BUT I HESITATED NOT AT LEAST PUT THIS ON THE TABLE FOR US TODAY WE CAN PUSH THIS INTO OTHER BUCKETS BUT YOU CAN ALSO READ IN HERE AND YOU HAVE READ WE'VE GONE OVER THIS ALL THE GOOD WORK WE'RE FROM AN ENVIRONMENTAL STANDPOINT WE ARE RUNNING OUT OF TIME. IF WE'RE NOT WE'RE PROBABLY GOING TO HAVE TO STAY UP TO THREE AFTER SCHOOL QUESTIONS, CONCERNS, CLARIFICATIONS SUGGESTED CHANGE 9.8 EDUCATION CAMPAIGNS FOR RECYCLING IN MY NEIGHBORHOOD AND I SUSPECT IN MANY NEIGHBORHOODS THERE IS NO RECYCLING ALL THE RUBBISH THAT COLLECTED IS PUT IN THE SAME BIN AND I ALSO UNDERSTAND AS FAR AS HOMEOWNERS ARE CONCERNED THERE IS AN ECONOMIC INCENTIVE TO PUT RECYCLING MATERIALS AND OTHER AND WASTE THAT TO THE EXTENT THAT'S WIDESPREAD AS I SUSPECT IT MAY BE ON PROMOTION IS REALLY NOT GOING TO BE VERY EFFECTIVE. WE HAVE RECYCLING IN OUR COMMUNITY SO I THINK IT DEPENDS ON THE COMMUNITY. I THINK YOU STILL HAVE TO DO IT . I QUESTION OUR EDUCATIONAL PROGRAM COMES FROM UNLESS IT'S THE POSTS ON NEXT DOOR AND FACEBOOK THAT THAT WORKS ON TO TO THOSE OF YOUR POINTS SOME 
          [05:25:02]
COMMUNITIES DO GENERALLY SPEAKING ACROSS THE ISLAND THERE ISN'T ANY RECYCLING I'M HAPPY TO HEAR THAT HILTON HEAD PLANTATION DOES THAT BUT IT'S ONE OF THOSE THINGS I DON'T KNOW WHY THE GOVERNMENT IS GETTING INVOLVED IN IT UNLESS IT'S A CONSISTENT GOAL ACROSS THE ISLAND AND RIGHT NOW THAT'S NOT WHERE WHERE WE'RE AT. IT IS A GOAL THROUGHOUT THE COUNTY BOTH BEAUFORT AND JASPER COUNTIES IT'S A LOCO AND THERE ARE GREAT STRIDES ARE TAKING PLACE WITHIN EACH MUNICIPALITY TO IMPROVE RECYCLING AND ON IN GENERAL I THINK WE SHOULD DO THE PROMOTION ON THAT'S ACTUALLY DONE BUT TERMS OF THE ACTION ITEMS NINE ONE WE'RE DOING AND IT'S DONE RIGHT ON TO WE'RE DOING NINE THREE IT'S DONE NINE FOUR ENHANCE THE DARK-SKY LIGHTING STANDARDS, PRESERVE NOCTURNAL HABITATS AND REDUCE LIGHT POLLUTION. 
          I DON'T KNOW WHAT MORE WE CAN DO ESPECIALLY IN LIGHT OF THE FACT THAT WE'RE WORKING TOWARDS LIGHTING UP THE ROADWAYS. SEEMS COUNTER INTUITIVE TO ME THAT WE WOULD PUTTING NINE FOUR IN THERE AND THEN AND THEN ESTABLISHING POLICIES TO LIGHT ROADWAYS. 
          I THINK IT'S GREAT IF WE PROMOTE AND ADOPT BUILDING PROGRAM BUILDING PRACTICES COORDINATE THIS IS WHAT YOU'RE TALKING WITH YOU FROM COUNTY TO ESTABLISH THE LONG TERM MATERIAL RECOVERY FACILITY. I DON'T KNOW WHERE THAT SET UP BUT. 
          I THINK THAT GOES ALONG WITH WHAT YOU WERE TALKING ABOUT WITH NINE EIGHT ESTABLISH A TOWN WIDE COMPOSTING PROGRAM FOR YARD AND FOOD WASTE AND COLLABORATION WITH LOCAL BUSINESSES. NEVER HEARD ABOUT THIS BEFORE AND I'M NOT SURE HOW OR WHERE THAT WORKS. I KNOW SEA PINES HAS A PROGRAM THAT'S REALLY AMAZING HEARD ABOUT THAT YEARS AGO THAT I'VE TALKED ABOUT IN THE PAST BUT AGAIN 910 IS NOT DEVELOP AWARENESS CAMPAIGN WITH LOCAL SCHOOLS FOR COASTAL ECOLOGY AND CONSERVATION EDUCATION AND JUST LIKE TO REMIND EVERYBODY THAT THE SCHOOLS ON HILTON HEAD ARE EITHER PRIVATE OR THEY'RE BEAUFORT COUNTY. SO AGAIN I'M NOT SURE WHERE WE'RE TAKING THIS GOVERNMENT AND. WHAT MORE WE'RE STARTING TO GET OUR FOOT IN THE DOOR. 
          IT'S GREAT. DON'T GET ME WRONG I'M NOT DISAGREEING WITH THE IDEA BUT IT'S I'M TALKING ABOUT THE GOVERNMENT GOING TALK TO ME PERSONALLY ABOUT THINGS I COULD GO ON AND ON ABOUT MANY OF THESE THINGS BUT AS AS GOVERNMENTS MY RESPONSIBILITY TO MAKE SURE WE'RE WORKING THE FRAMEWORK OF WHAT WE ACTUALLY ARE TO DO HERE A LIMITED GOVERNMENT. 911 I THINK WE'VE DONE THAT RIGHT. 
          WE ALL CELEBRATED THAT JUST AT THE LAST TOWN COUNCIL MEETING 912 WE'VE DONE IT 913 WE'VE DONE IT 914. I CERTAINLY HOPE THAT WE CONTINUE DO THIS. 
          WE'VE DOING IT AND IT'S TO PROTECT THE ENVIRONMENT ENVIRONMENTALLY SENSITIVE LANDS TO ACQUISITION AND CONSERVATIVE EASEMENTS. I HOPE THAT WE'RE ABLE TO ACQUIRE ALL THE AVAILABLE LAND LARGE LANDS THAT WANT THAT ANYONE WANTS TO SELL SO THAT WE CAN PROTECT THEM. AND AGAIN, I EMPHASIZE THERE'S THERE'S A NUMBER THAT I PUT FORTH THAT I'D LIKE TO SEE US MOVING ON YOU HAD SOME CLARIFICATIONS ON SO I GOT I DID SO AND I WAS NINE ONE, TWO, THREE, FOUR AND THEN 12. SO TO COUNCILWOMAN BECKER'S POINT, YES, THESE ARE THINGS THAT WE ARE DOING. THEY'RE NOT THINGS THAT ARE DONE. SO THE FIRST WE'RE REALLY DEALING WITH THINGS THAT WE'RE DOING WITH THE ALAMO. THERE ARE SOME QUICK FIXES PRIORITIES THAT WE ARE BRINGING FORWARD BUT THERE IS MORE THAT NEEDS TO BE DONE IN THE OVERALL REWRITE OF THE ALAMO SAME THING WITH THE IPM POLICY. YES, WE PUT THE POLICY IN PLACE BUT THERE'S A LOT OF WORK WE HAVE TO DO TO ACTUALLY IMPLEMENT THE POLICY PROGRAMS. WE HAVE TO ESTABLISH TRAINING WE HAVE TO RECEIVE. SO WHILE WE'RE DOING IT TO THE POINT EARLIER THAT WERE MADE BY BY SEVERAL THINGS THAT WE'RE DOING BUT THINGS THAT HAVE TO CARRY FORWARD THIS WASN'T ONE THAT CAME OUT OF OUR STRATEGIC PLANNING IN FEBRUARY AND I I'M JUST NOT COMFORTABLE AND THINK WE ARE ACCOMPLISHING ALL OF THESE THINGS. WE'VE WE'VE PUT THEM FORWARD. 
          BE THAT AS IT MAY, WE'RE TRYING TO REDUCE GOALS NOT GOALS COMMENTS THAT'S AND I THINK THIS IS ONE OF THE KEY GOALS I'M GLAD THAT THE TOWN MANAGER AND HIS STAFF ADDED THIS GOAL TO OUR LIST AND IF YOU LOOK AT OUR PLAN I DO HAVE MY WALMART INTO OUR PLAN HERE. 
          ONE OF THE KEY ELEMENTS IS THE ENVIRONMENT AND SO WE SHOULD RECOGNIZE THAT AND I LIKE THE LIST OF ITEMS WHENEVER THEY'RE DONE WE CAN MOVE SOME TO OPERATIONAL AND YOU KNOW THE IPM POLICY, I THINK SOME OF WHAT MR. LEININGER JUST SPOKE ABOUT COULD BE OPERATIONAL. THAT WOULD BE 911 912 BUT WE HAD A SWAT ON RECYCLING AND 
          [05:30:03]
SOLID WASTE AND SOME OF THIS COMES FROM THAT SWAT PARTICULARLY POINT NINE AMENDING THE TOWN MUNICIPAL CODE ABOUT BUSINESS SIZE REQUIREMENTS FOR SOLID WASTE HAULERS. THERE'S A COUPLE OF FIXES IN THERE THAT CAN MAKE A BIG DIFFERENCE AND WE NEED TO DO THAT. THE OTHER I THINK IN ADDITION TO SUPPORTING ALL THOSE EXCEPT FOR MAYBE MOVING 9.11 9.12 OPERATIONAL ONE OF THE ONES THAT I HAVE BEEN SUGGESTING I WOULD LIKE TO SUGGEST TO AN ACTION ITEM IS TO WORK WITH USC BE AN AREA ENVIRONMENTAL EDUCATION ORGANIZATION TO ESTABLISH AN ECO INSTITUTE WITH A LOT OF VACANT SPACE AT USC. WE'VE ALREADY TALKED ABOUT THAT. 
          THERE'S A LAB IN THE UPSTAIRS THAT'S NOT BEING USED EXCEPT FOR THE SEA TURTLE PATROL WORKING WITH ONE OF THE BIOLOGY PROFESSORS. IT'S AN EXCELLENT LOCATION FOR AN ENVIRONMENTAL ECOSYSTEM RESEARCH IF YOU LOOK TO OUR VISION WHICH WAS THE PRECURSOR FOR OUR PLAN HERE IS ONE OF THE KEY STRATEGIC ACTION AREAS BECOME A LOCATION FOR UNIQUE ENVIRONMENTAL ECOSYSTEM RESEARCH. HILTON HEAD ISLAND HALL IS THE IMPORTANT BARRIER ISLAND STATUS AND THE SURROUNDING LANDS WETLANDS VEGETATION MARINE ECOSYSTEMS REPRESENT INTRIGUING . THE ISLAND OFFERS A UNIQUE LOCATION TO CUTTING EDGE RESEARCH ON ENVIRONMENTAL CHALLENGES AS A BARRIER ISLAND ETC. AND HILTON HEAD ISLAND SHOULD FORGE PARTNERSHIPS POSITION ITSELF AS A UNIQUE OUTDOOR RESEARCH LABORATORY ATTRACTING NATIONAL TALENT AND PROJECTS. 
          I JUST WANT TO LET YOU KNOW THAT TWO YEARS AGO I MET WITH DR. PINEAU AND WE THAT SAME DISCUSSION REGARDING ENVIRONMENTAL SERVICES, LAND PLANNING AND OTHER POTENTIAL CURRICULUM OPPORTUNITIES NONE WERE. NONE WERE PICKED UP. 
          WELL, IT'S SHAME BECAUSE IT'S AN EXCELLENT LOCATION AND WE HAVE THE KIND OF TALENT AND I WOULD REQUEST THAT WE HAD A NEW ACTION ITEM TO EXPLORE ESTABLISHING AN ECO INSTITUTE WITH USC BE AN AREA ENVIRONMENTAL ORGANIZATIONS. THAT'S A PROPOSAL SUPPORT FOR THAT AND IT'S A FABULOUS IDEA BUT I THINK THAT AT THIS POINT IN TIME IT IS NOT APPROPRIATE THIS THIS PARTICULAR STRATEGIC PLAN OF CONVERSATION. JUST LIKE WITH ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT CAN CONTINUE WITH ALL OF US TO PURSUE OPPORTUNITIES TO WITH UCB AND HOW THEY ENHANCE THEIR OFFERING ESPECIALLY AS THEY DIRECTLY RELATE TO ANYTHING THAT INVOLVES OUR TOWN HERE HILTON HEAD IN PARTICULAR WE SHOULD DO THAT AND WE SHOULD DO THAT AS AN ONGOING BASIS ANYWAY. YEAH I DON'T SEE IT AS BEING A PLACE TO PUT OUR TIME AT THE MOMENT BECAUSE WE'VE HAD CONVERSATIONS WITH THE ORGANIZATION WITHOUT ANY FORWARD TO MY COMMENTS THIS PARTICULAR ITEM AS A GOAL ITSELF. 
          I THINK IT'S IMPORTANT US TO TO KEEP IT IN THE BOOK OF WORK JUST BECAUSE OF THE WAY THAT IT TIES BACK TO OUR COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AS YOU AS YOU COUNT THE CHECKMARKS OF F 26 VERSUS ALL OF THE CHECKMARKS THERE'S 14 ITEMS HERE FIVE OF WHICH WE'RE NOT TOUCHING THIS YEAR AND THE OTHERS THAT ARE BEING TOUCHED THIS YEAR WE'RE ALREADY WORKING ON I THINK IT'S IMPORTANT TO KEEP IT IN THE BOOK OF WORK OBVIOUSLY EQUITY AS MUCH OF A BURDEN ON TOWN PARTICULARLY IF WE'RE JUST KEEPING IT AS ONE OF OUR CORE VALUES AS WE MOVE ALONG. 
          OTHER COMMENTS WE HAVE CONSENSUS TO LEAVE THIS AS IS AND THEN WE PRIORITIZE AND THEN WE PRIORITIZE CORRECT? YES THAT'S RIGHT YEP. ALL RIGHT. 
          SO REAL QUICK, ANY PUBLIC COMMENT ON ENHANCED ENVIRONMENTAL SUSTAINABILITY RIGHT SEEING DONE, WE'LL MOVE ON TO ASCO. THE FINAL STRATEGY IS ALSO IN ADDITION FROM THE FROM THE CONVERSATION BACK IN FEBRUARY AND SIMILARLY IS ALIGNED TO THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AS WELL AS ONE OF THE CORE VALUES IMPLEMENT THE PARKS AND RECREATION PLAN AND SUPPORT PROGRAM ENHANCEMENTS. THE GOAL AND THE STRATEGIES ARE THE GOAL AND THE STRATEGY I SHOULD SAY AS ALIGNED WITH THE OUR PLAN DOCUMENT AND THE ACTION ITEMS ARE BRIEF BUT IMPACTFUL SO THAT ACTION ITEMS AS PART OF THIS HAPPY TO REDIRECT ALL QUESTIONS PEOPLE ON MORE ABOUT THIS I ANY QUESTIONS CONCERNS AND KEEP 
          [05:35:02]
MIND THAT MARK DID SAY THAT YOU KNOW THESE ARE THINGS THAT HE WANTS TO HAVE IN THERE TO THAT HE NEEDS TO CONTINUE TO WORK ON THEM SO GO AHEAD YES. SO AGAIN, I THINK THERE'S THE OPPORTUNITY TO REFRAME GOAL. THIS IS ABOUT IMPLEMENTING A PLAN. 
          IT'S OPPOSED TO SOMETHING THAT IS MORE STRATEGIC LONG TERM AND I STARTED THE DAY WITH MY COMMENTS ON THAT SOMETHING ALONG THE LINE OF ENHANCING COMMUNITY WELL-BEING THROUGH STRATEGIC INVESTMENTS IN PARKS AND RECREATION OR FOSTERING A THRIVING CONNECTED COMMUNITY BY ,INVESTING IN RECREATIONAL INFRASTRUCTURE AND GREEN SPACE BUT SOMETHING TO BRING IT UP AS OPPOSED TO IMPLEMENT PLAN BECAUSE WHEN THE PLAN IS DONE DOES IT GO AWAY? OH, THAT'S JUST THE WAY TO THINK ABOUT THE STRATEGIC PLANS ON ONE OF OUR CORE VALUES. 
          SO AS WE WERE TALKING EARLIER ABOUT CORE VALUES, RIGHT. YOU KNOW RESILIENCE THAT'S A CORE VALUE PARKS RECREATION IS PART OF OUR CORE VALUE. THAT'S WHERE I GET WHERE THE WORDS PARK IT'S MORE THAN THAT. AND SO IT'S JUST A WAY OF REFRAMING WHY BEHIND THESE INVESTMENTS. YES. THE MASTER PLAN IMPLEMENTATION IS THE ONE, RIGHT? YES. ALEX, AS WE'RE HAVING THIS DISCUSSION DOWN THE ROAD ABOUT THE REVISION OF THE PLAN OR THE UPDATE OF THE COMP PLAN, I THINK THIS IS ONE OF THE ITEMS THAT WE CAN TAKE UP BECAUSE I CAN REMEMBER AS WE WERE WORKING ON THE 2020 TO 2040 PLAN WAS A WHOLE SUBGROUP THAT WAS WORKING ON PARKS REC AND YOU KNOW VERY INFLUENTIAL FOLKS FOR ONE FOR TWO THE TOWN HAS A PARKS AND REC ARM THE DOESN'T NECESSARILY SIT UNDER THIS ROOF OKAY THROUGH ISLAND RECREATION ASSOCIATION SO IT CAME MUCH COMMUNITY INVOLVEMENT IS FOR IS WHEN ARE WE GOING TO IMPLEMENT THIS MASTER PLAN OKAY SO I WANT TO REVISE THE GOALS SO THERE'S MORE OVERARCHING I GET THAT AND I RESPECT THAT OKAY AND I THINK IS PART OF THE BIGGER CONVERSATION ABOUT HOW IT FITS INTO A COMPREHENSIVE PLAN UPDATE I'M JENNY. OH THANK YOU. I GUESS THE SAME THING THAT I WOULD SAY WITH GOAL GOAL NINE WE ARE DOING ALL OF THESE THINGS AND IF I WERE TO THE QUESTION OF ARE THERE OTHER THINGS THAT WE'RE CURRENTLY DOING OR THAT WE OR THAT WE'VE DONE, WOULD THEY ALL BE THEN LISTED UNDER A GOAL AND IF SO WHY THEY HERE? SO WHILE I AGREE THERE'S PARKS AND REC IS CERTAINLY ONE OF OUR CORE VALUES EVERYWHERE OR THINGS THAT WE DO EVERY TIME OPERATIONAL ISSUE AS FAR AS ARE SO IF I LOOK AT MY MY VISITS TO GET MORE QUESTIONS THAT WE'RE NOT WE'RE NOT I DON'T KNOW MYSELF OUT HERE I'M WORKING ON MY I MEAN I LIKE THEM TO THANK YOU AND I DON'T THIS IN THE CREATION OF I'LL JUST LEAVE IT AT THAT I HOPE I MAKE MYSELF HEARD YOUR COMMENTS MAY I JUST SAY ONE THING AND ASK MR. HUNTER A QUESTION SO OUR PLAN HERE'S HOW MUCH IS ON PARKS AND REC MASTER PLAN IT WAS A KEY ELEMENT IN THERE I DIDN'T COUNT THE NUMBER OF PAGES COMPARED TO THE OTHER ELEMENTS BUT IT'S A KEY PORTION OF IT. THE 6000 I IF I READ THAT NOT QUESTION BUT A POSITION APPROPRIATE WAY IT'S NOT THAT THIS IS A BAD OR OR UNWORTHY STRATEGY. 
          IT'S THAT AS IT'S WORDED IT'S YOU DON'T VIEW IT AS AS STRATEGIC WORTHY RIGHT. 
          RIGHT. AND SO MY QUESTION, MR. HUNTER IS IS THERE SUGGESTION AS TO WHERE TO PLACE IT UNDER ANY OF THE OTHER THAT'S THAT'S MY QUESTION. 
          [05:40:04]
I THERE'S ANOTHER AREA THAT I SEE YOU KNOW, TO PLACE IT UNDER IT'S IT'S SOME VALUE WELL AS THE ENVIRONMENTAL PIECE SO AGAIN I YOU KNOW WHAT WE HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO LOOK AT THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AND REWRITE THE VALUE. I WOULD JUST THE VALUE IN A DIFFERENT WAY AND NOT SAY IMPLEMENTING MASTER PLAN OR YOU KNOW IT'S BIGGER THAN THAT WE DO WE'RE DOING THAT FOR SOMEONE LIKE YOU SAID. WHAT'S THAT REASON? SO IT'S THINGS REALLY THAT I GET THAT THAT'S THAT'S A THAT'S AN EXCELLENT POINT TO TO MS. DECKER'S AWESOME POINT WE'RE TRYING TO COME BACK TO THE TABLE AND IT'S 306 AND WE'RE STILL TALKING ABOUT HOW MUCH THERE IS TO. DO I COMPLETELY RESPECT PERSONALLY AND PROFESSIONALLY TRYING TO DO LESS I'M NOT PUTTING IT ON THIS DOESN'T MEAN WE'RE NOT DOING THE WORK AND THEN AT TIMES WE'VE STRUGGLED YOU ALL STRUGGLED WITH WAIT A MINUTE WHAT ARE YOU DOING? WHY ARE WE WORKING ON THAT AND I WANT TO I WANT TO ADDRESS THAT THE THE ENVIRONMENTAL SECTION THE PARKS AND REC I APPRECIATE IT. 
          LET'S TAKE A MOMENT BECAUSE CALL IT EIGHT. LET'S PUT RESILIENCE UNDER STORM WATER OR STORM WATER UNDER RESILIENCE NOW WE'RE DOWN TO SEVEN SEVENS ARE LUCKY NUMBER LET'S GO ON WE'RE STILL DOING WORK TOMORROW SO IT'S IT'S YOUR WILL LIKE AT THE END OF THE DAY WE HAVE $10 MILLION IN A SIP PROGRAM THAT'S ALIGNED PARKS IT'S PICKLEBALL IS SOCCER IS BASEBALL IS PUMP IT'S IT'S ADA COMPLIANCE WHICH WE HAVE NOT CAUGHT UP TO KEPT UP TO AND SO WE ARE TRYING TO HELP TOWN COUNCIL WITH WHAT SO THAT THERE ARE NO SURPRISES WHEN WE COME BACK TO THE DRAWING BOARD WITH BUDGET WITHIN THE STRATEGIC PLAN CAN THERE BE AN EXTRA PAGE IN THE BACK THAT SAYS HERE ARE OPERATIONAL ITEMS THAT WE'RE CONTINUING ON THESE I'M JUST I WAS JUST GOING TO SAY I MEAN I THINK THAT YOU KNOW YOU WILL END UP WITH A 12 PAGE STRATEGIC PLAN AND A PLAN AND A 250 PAGE APPENDIX. RIGHT. 
          WELL, NO, I IT'S JUST YOU KNOW ,A SUMMATION OF SOME SUPPORT. SO YES, WE COULD DO THAT WITHOUT WITHOUT OVERKILL MOVE THOSE ITEMS THAT YOU DON'T HAVE TO TAKE ACTION ON IMPLEMENTING THE IPM PROGRAM IT TAKES A WE ARE FIGURING OUT WEEDS ON 278 THIS MORNING SHAWN AND I CALLING EACH OTHER AT 740 AT THAT STRATEGIC ALIGNMENT WITH I DON'T NEED TO TELL YOU WHAT IT ALL IS ESPECIALLY AT THIS HOUR IT'S STILL IT'S OPERATIONAL. YOU'RE GOING TO MAKE SOME DECISIONS THIS NEXT BUDGET YEAR IF YOU WANT A DIFFERENT LEVEL OF SERVICE. 
          SO YES, TO YOUR POINT, WHY DON'T WE TRY TO TAKE A STAB AT THAT I KNOW WE HAVE TO GET THROUGH SOME PRIORITIZATION TODAY STILL. WELL, I DIDN'T THINK THAT THIS WAS GOING BE SUCH A A I THINK THIS WOULD BE CELEBRATED THAT WERE LETTING YOU KNOW WHAT WE'RE DOING, WHY WE'RE DOING IT AND WHEN WE'RE DOING IT. AND IF I COULD JUST ADD ONE MORE THING. YOU KNOW, IN THE PREVIOUS STRATEGIC PLANS WE'VE HAD IMPLEMENT THE CFP AS A GOAL AND YOU KNOW AND REALLY IT'S AN EXECUTION WE'VE LAID OUT THE CORE COMPONENTS THAT ARE WITHIN THE CFP BE TRUE NOURISHMENT IS INCLUDED RIGHT AND THE RESILIENCE MAJOR CORRIDORS COVER ROADWAYS AND STREETS STORMWATER HAS ITS OWN WHETHER IT'S ROLLED UP UNDER RESILIENCE OR NOT SO WHEN WERE LOOKING AT THIS PARKS WAS NOT ANYWHERE WITHIN THE GOALS OF TOWN COUNCIL AND WHETHER IT'S TO ENHANCE COMMUNITY HEALTH THROUGH DELIVERY OF PARKS OR INCLUDING UPGRADES AND ADDITIONAL ALEX YOUR COMMENT THE PROGRAMING PIECE THAT WARRANTED MAKING SURE WE HAD THE WHOLE SEA I'M REPRESENTED WITHIN THE GOALS BECAUSE THAT'S WHERE GOING TO DRIVE WHAT WE HAVE THIS YEAR 70 SOME MILLION DOLLARS OF THE CONSOLIDATED BUDGET WAS ON CIP SO I THINK FOR US IT'S NOT LOSING THE FACT THAT WE'RE DOING ALL THIS GOOD WORK AND AND THIS IS TRANSFORMATIONAL WORK AS WE DEVELOP THESE PARKS WHETHER THEY'RE UPGRADES OR, BRAND NEW FACILITIES SO LEAVE IT IN AND IT'S KIND OF WHERE I'M GOING, RIGHT? BECAUSE IT'S JUST HERE'S WHAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN WHEN YOU COME AND DO THE ANNUAL REPORT NEXT DONE. 
          IT'S NOT GOING TO CHANGE THE WORKFLOW HAVING IT HERE DOESN'T CHANGE THE DIRECTIVE OF COUNCIL 
          [05:45:03]
JUST MAKES IT CLEAR TO PUBLIC THIS IS WHAT'S GOING ON, THIS IS WHAT'S BEING DONE. 
          SO HERE YOU HAVE TO PASS THIS ON. YEAH I FORGOT JUST OH YOU AND I'M GOING TO ASK IF THERE ARE ANY PUBLIC COMMENTS ON THIS WITH YOU ALL. 
          WELL ON THIS LAST ITEM THAT WE GET OF GENERAL PUBLIC COMMENT YEAH ALL RIGHT MAKE SOME OBSERVATIONS IN TERMS OF THE LAST ITEM CONSOLIDATED WHAT'S IDENTIFIED ERM WATER AND RESILIENCE HAVE BEEN IDENTIFIED AS TWO AREAS THAT CAN BE CONSOLIDATED. 
          WHAT IS THE PLEASURE OF COUNCIL IN TERMS OF CONSOLIDATING THOSE TWO ITEMS AND DO WE GET A COPY OF THE CHAPTERS IN THE RESILIENCE PLAN ON ITS WAY AND ROUTE IS WHAT IT LITERALLY AND ROUND YES ELVIS HAS LEFT BUT WHILE WE'RE WAITING ON THAT WHERE SOMEBODY ELSE I DON'T THINK IT MAKES A DIFFERENCE TO THE WAY WHAT DIFFERENCE DOES IT MAKE WE SEPARATE THEM AND PUT THEM TOGETHER. I MEAN WHY ARE WE WASTING TIME EVEN TALKING ABOUT THE DOE AND YOU KNOW AS WAS JUST STATED IT DOESN'T CHANGE WORKLOAD. YES. 
          THERE'S SOME CROSS TIES, RIGHT. YOU KNOW IS WHICH THE STAFF IS GOING TO KNOW THAT THAT THEY'RE KILLING TWO BIRDS WITH ONE STONE. THERE'S NO IF I BEAT A DEAD HORSE LIKE THIS I'D BE A BROKE GUY. OKAY. 
          SO I I'D LIKE TO I'D LIKE TO PUT SOME WORK ON YOUR PLATE FOR MINUTE ON EVERYBODY TO TAKE A BLANK SHEET OF PAPER THAT YOU'RE OKAY WITH ME COLLECTING SO IF IT'S A LOVE NOTE TO YOUR PARTNER, DON'T DON'T WRITE THIS ON THE BACK OF IT. GIVE IT TO ME BECAUSE I WANT TO I WANT TO TAKE IT EVERYBODY TAKE A PIECE OF PAPER THAT I CAN COLLECT. 
          GOT IT. AND I PROMISE YOU WHAT YOU WRITE DOWN IS NOT GOING TO CHANGE WHAT IS ON SCREEN OTHER THAN WHAT WE HAVE ALREADY TALKED ABOUT.

          GET YOUR PAPER SOMETHING TO WRITE WITH AND STUFF THE WRITE ON.

WE'RE GOING TO MAKE THE LIST BUT I WANT THE LIST TO READ IDENTICAL FROM COUNCIL MEMBER TO COUNCIL MEMBER I WANT YOU TO WRITE GROWTH MANAGEMENT TRUST ME LOOK WHEN YOU'VE WRITTEN GROWTH MANAGEMENT YEAH AND CORRIDORS STREETS NOW ISLAND RESILIENCE HOW STORMWATER PUBLIC SAFETY ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT DEVELOPMENT HOUSING DOLLAR DG CULTURE ARE FAST RATED SUSTAINABILITY PARKS I WANT YOU TO TAKE 15 MINUTES AND

THIS IS RIGHT IN LINE WITH THE OTHER THINGS BEING DONE MEANING FOR US IN MOTION BUT TERMS OF A HEALTHY COMMUNITY THOSE WERE KIND OF LEADING THE CHARGE. THIS IS BETWEEN OUR NUMBERS FROM A FAR AWAY NUMBER. 
          UH OH BETWEEN NUMBER ONE AND NUMBER TWO.
