PRESIDENT’S CORNER
By Jo Ann Whitlock, 761-6658
I hope everyone enjoyed our Fall
Festival on Friday, the 31st of October.
Tami Willis once again pulled off an
amazing community event that
focused on the children. Thank you to
all who helped, including the Pimlico
Ladies Club for providing spooky,
tasty homemade treats. Take a look at
the pictures taken at this year’s event.
Don’t forget to vote Tuesday,
November 4 at the Community Center.
The one cent sales tax is on the ballot
and I just wanted to let everyone know
that without that in place, we would
not have gotten the partial paving that
was done on Albert Storm Blvd. In an
SCDOT letter, they informed me that
Berkeley County is only allocated
enough money to pave about 5 miles of
non-federal aid routes each year.
Albert Storm is a non-federal aid route
and there are over 340 miles of
roadway that are eligible for paving in
Berkeley County. My conclusion, in
order to try and maintain our roads, the
tax is needed.
Last week we had a dike inspection
from DHEC. The full report is to
follow. The initial comments were to
keep vegetation at a minimum, watch
for seepage, and do not dig into the
dikes. I would ask that if you walk
around the lakes take some loppers and
keep the small undergrowth cut back.
That will go a long way in protecting
the dikes and making for a safer
walking experience.
Our annual Christmas Chili Cook-off
and night time Golf Cart Parade are
coming up. See the flier in this
newsletter for more information. Start
planning now to be there. It is fun for
all. We will have a police and fire
escort for safety.

Our speaker this month will be our

firsthand report of what is happening.

The next public meeting of the

Berkeley County Sheriff's Department
has reported an increase in car breakins in the county. Please make sure you
lock your doors when parking.
More than just a crime watch program,
this is neighbors taking care and
looking out for neighbors. We are
looking for individuals who have
special skills (such as plumbing,
electrical, clearing) in the event of any
type of disaster, individuals who are
willing to serve as area captains to help
spread information when needed, and
most important, those who have
special needs and will need assistance
in the event of a disaster.
Please contact Teresa Kartischko at
761-4944 if you have skills, need
assistance, or would like to volunteer
or serve, have information regarding
safety or suspicious activity. Always
call 911 for any type of emergency!
