New Senate Subcommittee Hearing

The South Carolina Special Subcommittee is meeting again this Wednesday, March 5 at 1:00 to further consider Senate Bill 723.    This bill will allow the Town to be reunited.

It is true that if the bill passes, the Town will only be reunited if a majority of JIPSD Commissioners request that the citizens we lost in 2011 be added back to the Town.   Sadly, I have no confidence that there is currently a majority of Commissioners who will vote to do that.    Commissioners McMillan and Brown-Crouch support reuniting the Town.    I have my doubts about the rest.  But we can cross that bridge when we get there.   The Commissioners are all elected officials, and if the people of James Island want to be reunited, we will sooner or later get a majority of Commissioners who will vote to reunite the Town.

Please email Senator Thurmond to thank him for sponsoring Senate Bill 723 and helping reunite the Town of James Island.    You can send a message here:  Senator Paul Thurmond.

Please email Commissioners McMillian and Brown-Crouch to thank them for supporting the effort to reunite the Town.
