Research Committee Updates Analysis
of 2005 Development Agreement
On September 30, 2005, KPOG provided
all property owners with an analysis of Who Gets What in the then
proposed 2005 Development Agreement (DA) between the Town of Kiawah
Island and KRA. That analysis was based upon information and
documents publicly available as of September 30, and is posted on
this site (link).
The November 2005 issue of Kiawah Island Talk contained an
Executive Summary of Who Gets What, which focused only on key
issues in the final 2005 DA, as approved by Town Council at its
October 12, 2005 meeting (link).
As promised in the November Talk,
KPOG has also updated its September 30 analysis to identify changes
effected by the Town since that analysis was issued. Text deleted
from the KRA and Property Owner columns is marked “DELETED” and
remains with a line through it, e.g., This text deleted.
Modified text, additions to the DA, additional discussion, and
changes in page references are highlighted in yellow, e.g.
This text highlighted. For
ease of access, two versions of the Research Committee’s Updated
Analysis are posted here. One version is for reading online (link),
and the second is a printable version for those who would prefer a
hard copy (link).
The majority of the changes which
are incorporated into the approved DA were advocated by individual
property owners, KICA, or KPOG. Even though other suggested changes
were not adopted, those changes that were made resulted in a better
agreement than what was first unveiled to the public on August 23.
Faith Dodge, President of KICA, has
already sent an email about some of the changes affecting KICA, and
the November 2005 issue of Kiawah Island Digest includes a
short article on this subject. The Town has also promised further
communication about the Development Agreement.
