RE: Maintenance of Standard Construction Materials within the Sidewalk at Orleans Road (S-10-1373) near
Dulsey Road
Dear Mr. Richards:
This letter concerns the proposed concrete sidewalk, 5 feet wide by 432 linear feet long and seven ADA ramps
with detectable warning assemblies to be constructed in conjunction with the Town Place Hotel and Courtyard
Marriot Hotel construction projects, within the SCDOT right-of-way at Orleans Road (S-10-1373) near Dulsey
Road. It is our intention that this will be a public sidewalk.
The City Council of Charleston, at its meeting held [date of meeting], agreed to accept full maintenance
responsibility for the proposed sidewalk within the State maintained right-of-way shown on the attached drawing
and which will be constructed under a valid SCDOT Encroachment Permit. The City of Charleston agrees to
maintain this sidewalk and corner handicap ramps in compliance with current ADA and SCDOT standards (ADA
Standards for Transportation Facilities, SC Highway Design Manual, SCDOT Standard Drawings, AASHTO
Guide for Development of Pedestrian Facilities).
Should there be any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me at 843-724-3754 or at cabinessl@charleston-
sc.gov.
Sincerely,
Laura S. Cabiness, P.E.
