The following actions
took place at the August 12th Kiawah Island Town Council meeting:
- As reported in the
July/August issue of TALK, the proposed widening of the Kiawah
Island Parkway is preliminary. Charlie Lipuma, Chairman of the
Planning Commission, said the Town started doing traffic studies in
2000. Factoring in development growth, the parkway should reach
capacity by 2015.
- Kiawah resident Betty McCullough made a presentation
proposing a cultural center be built on Kiawah. She said KRA
has agreed to donate the land for Freshfields.
- Council voted unanimously to table discussion of rental
rule enforcement until such time that an ordinance was
presented for rental regulations. Councilman Fishman commented
that Council has sat on this issue for long enough.
- Councilman McIver stressed the need for better
arrangements with Charleston County deputies, stating they
have not been around when needed. McIver cited an assault
occurrence where deputies did not respond and lack of support
with control of speeding on Kiawah roads.
- Councilman Bennett attempted to read a statement near the
end of the meeting.
After being interrupted several times by other Council
members, and prior to completion of his statement, Councilman
Fishman moved adjournment. Mayor Wert seconded. Bennett has
offered his entire presentation as a "letter to the editor" in
the next issue of TALK.
