engineering firm and Town staff. IPW Construction Group, LLC of North Charleston was the low

bid at $139,071.60 and was found to meet the qualification requirements submitted in accordance

with Section 01110 of the Specifications. Ways and Means Committee recommended approval and

award of this contract to IPW Construction Group, LLC.

be evaluating staff on their roles and the response. Mr. Cave, the Town’s consultant, will begin

interviewing Council members for their input and reactions, and input will be complied from all

the different agencies involved along with the different entities on the Island. Mr. Weaver stated

resident input will also be requested for different areas such as communications.

Mr. Weaver reported on the Fire District’s Capital Improvement Plan which includes the rebuilding

both the Stations on the Island. One of the advantages of the new stations is they will allow for

the increase in the number of firefighters and apparatus which can be housed in the facility

thereby increasing the number of firefighters on each apparatus.

Mr. Weaver stated a variance was required and submitted to the Board of Zoning Appeals (BZA)

for the rebuilding of station on Flyway. The BZA approved the request at the October 17th meeting

and construction should begin in the near future.

Mayor Lipuma reported on the new Municipal Center stating that steel work is ongoing for the

main building and garage with sheeting expected to begin in the next week. Completion of the

project is in July of 2017, the small delay coming due to storms. The Mayor indicated he was

pleased with the work that had been performed by the contractor.

XI. Town Administrator’s Report:

Ms. Tillerson stated Mr. Lameo and Mr. Jordan would be presenting reports on the status ofbeach and boardwalks.

Mr. Jordan stated that immediately following the storm he did a GPS survey and compared it to a

survey done before the storm. He estimated a 20 to 100 feet erosion rate, depending on the

section which was confirmed, in more detail, by the letter received the Town yesterday from

Coastal Science and Engineering. He reviewed the highlights of the report;

Beach Update• Kiawah is fortunate to have an expansive healthy, dune system that weathered the storm

well• Kiawah’s beach suffered significant erosion during Hurricane Matthew.

o Erosion rates averaged 20-75 feeto Highest rates at Captain Sam’s spito 30 feet at Sanctuaryo 20 feet at Ocean Course

• Storm surge and heavy surf flattens the beach profile and removes sand from the upperbeach and deposits it on the lower beach or in underwater bars

• Beach will naturally heal as sand from these areas migrates back up the profile to the dunes.CSE expects significant recovery in the months ahead with most recovery-taking place afterthe winter season. Beaches generally erode during fall and winter (higher tides, NE winds)and accrete during spring/summer (lower tides, S winds)

Recommendations• Beach Walkovers

5 P a g e

Page 7: TOWN OF KIAWAH ISLAND - Amazon S3...B. Minutes of the Town Council Meeting of September 6, 2016 ... She reviewed the Town’s audit with a PowerPoint presentation to ... Mrs. Johnson

o Damaged portions of walkovers should be removed from the beach and rebuiltwith the seaward end of the steps as close to the existing primary dune aspossible. Ideally, beach should be allowed to recover before significantreconstruction takes place.

Sand Fencingo Installation of sand fencing is useful for promoting dune growth in flat, dry sand

areaso CSE does not believe sand fencing is necessary at this timeo If sand fencing is used in certain areas, it would be more beneficial to delay

installation until the spring season (prior to 1 May for turtle concerns) to benefitfrom the natural beach recovery cycle and avoid potential washout of fencingduring winter storms.

o Installation of sand fencing will need to be accomplished under a SCDHEC—OCRMgeneral permit. It will take about 45 days to get permit at an approximate cost of$3,000.

• Beach Repairo CSE does not recommend beach scraping or other emergency measures allowable

under OCRM emergency orders as the overall health of Kiawah Island will promotenatural recovery.

• Monitoringo CSE is scheduled to complete our annual beach survey in the upcoming weeks.

These data will be used to determine overall beach volume changes and localimpacts.

o The Town may should consider another monitoring effort in 3—6 months todocument recovery of the dune and monitor potentially threatened areas.

o Annual report will be delivered in February/March 2017 and will include detailedrecommendations on sand fencing if applicable

Mr. Wilson asked if work can be done under the permit obtained for the pervious beach

nourishment project. Mr. Jordan confirmed that the permit issued in 2015 was amended to allow

sand fencing on the east end until 2019. He added the Town could also apply for a permit to cover

the rest of the beach if it deemed necessary. Mayor Lipuma stated if the permit has a modest cost

he felt the Town should move ahead to with the permitting so it would be in place should sand

fencing need to be installed in a particular area.

Mr. Lameo reported that following the storm the most extensive damage was done to the beach

and boardwalks. There are approximate 175 public and private boardwalks along the beach.

Following the storm 80% to 85% of them were either damaged or destroyed. All the debris has

been removed from the beach and is now in the recovery phase. All boardwalk repair or

replacement requests are being forwarded to the ARB who will, along with Mr. Lameo, inspect

the boardwalks to make recommendations. Mr. Lameo stated that there were:

• 5 public boardwalks open,

• 18 private boardwalks being repaired,

• 6 boardwalks that are under review,

• 20 boardwalks that extend over 10 feet onto the active beach,

• 3 owners constructing without review and nonconforming

• All markers were washed away and each boardwalk owner is having to be identified

Homeowners will be notified how long they have to make the necessary repairs or modifications

to their boardwalk or if the boardwalk is a safety hazard and needs to be immediately addressed.

Mr. Lameo stated that of the 42 trash containers along the beach, 4 were able to be salvaged. TheTown has contracted for the containers to be replaced eight to ten at a time. He added that allvehicle accesses are passable and will be re-graded will rocks in the spring.

Ms. Tillerson stated that Town and Community Association staff did an outstanding job workingtogether pre and post hurricane.

XII. Mayor’s Report:

XIV. Council Member Comments:

Mr. Wilson added to his earlier report on Johns Island Roads by calling attention to the fact thatunless one go by boat, all roads that take residents of Kiawah, Seabrook, and Wadmalaw to themainland are in unincorporated Johns Island or the City of Charleston and that is why the focushas been on these roads for many years and why the interest in the study for the bike path.

for funds to reprint the brochure due to the high demand for it by residents and

guests.

and to ensurwreliability of service for its customers on Kiawah Island. The rates proposed

are also necessary to allow the Applicant to comply with the standards and regulations set

by D1{EC and other environmental regulatory authorities. The proposed rates will preserve

PURCHASED WATER ADJUSTMENT

Kia’ah lsland Utility, Inc. (“Company”) purchases its potable water from the St. John’s WaterCompany (“St. John’s), which in turn purchases the water from the Commissioners of PublicWorks of the City of Charleston (“CPW”). Whenever CPW increases the price of water soldto St. John’s, the increase in price is passed through to the Company pursuant to the waterpurchase agreement between the Company and St. Jobn’s.

The water purchase agreement also provides, as part of the purchased water price, apro-rata share of St. John’s annual operation and maintenance costs to be charged tothe Company. Therefore, the Company’s revenue requirement for purchased water ismade up of the water unit price per thousand gallons and the operation and maintenancecosts charged by St. John’s.

Accoding1y, whenever there is a price adjustment for the purchase of potable water toKiawah Island Utility, Inc. by the St. John’s Water Company, the following billing adjustmentshall ,e made by the Company to its customer rates:

1. Billing Adjuslment

In the event that St. John’s adjusts (whether an increase or decrease) the unit priceper 1,000 gallons and/or the operation and maintenance charges related to thepurchase of potable water, the following billing adjustment practice would apply:

(a) If the unit price is adjusted the cost change per 1,000 gallons would be passedthrough to the customers as an adjustment in like amotint to the consumptioncharge on their water bilL

Subject: Kiawah Island Utility Rate Increase Application #2016-222WS

Commissioners: I respectfully request you hold a public hearing on Kiawah Island regarding theabove referenced rate application. I ask you do so for the following reasons:

1. Ratepayers need additional information on top of what is contained in the filing in order todetermine whether this request is warranted, excessive or no position is necessary.2. Holding a hearing on Kiawah, rather than in Columbia, would require fewer people to travel toattend the hearing.3. Ratepayers would be able to ask pertinent questions directly of the SC PSC enable us to evaluatethe necessity of the requested increase.

In 2011 you were kind enough to hold such a hearing on Kiawah. I hope you will do so again.

Thank you in advance for your consideration, I look forward to attending a public hearing on Kiawahon this matter.
