New Business:
I. Request by a Property Owner on Lovell for the City to Relocate the South End
Business District Compactor on Lovell Avenue to Inlet Avenue.
A. This new location has been discussed before and the committee does not
think it is a good alternative. Possible alternatives discussed are: find out
which businesses use the compactor, ask if they can change their dump
schedule to between the hours of 8-10A.M., ask if the hauling company
can pick up after 10:00A.M., landscape or soundproof the area
surrounding the compactor.
B. Joe Wilson and Chantel Morton will talk with the businesses to find out
who uses the compactor and find out what time their facilities close down.
They will also try to find other possible alternatives.
Old Business:
I. Drainage Issue and Report from HGBD Regarding 1501 Chatham Avenue
A. Report from HGBD shows that the dirt is going through the annular space
on the outside of the pipe. They have mentioned a website in the report where an item
that will seal the area can be purchased. The report also shows that there should be drains
on the sea wall where the ground water can be released. This portion is already included
in 4th phase of drainage project but it could be added as a change order to the existing
contract to be fixed sooner.
B. Barry Brown motions to fast track the drainage pipe through the yard
when they begin construction on the 14th St. project and have the engineer do an
inspection of the house prior to starting construction. Charlie Brewer seconded.

SPLOST (To starting coming into Tybee from the County in 2011 or 2012
