Mr. Peele stated that we have been in Snee Farm for several months and
wanted to share with the committee an update on the progress of the
project, where the project is headed next, what has occurred, and where we
will be going in the next phase.
Mrs. Sarah Mittermeier stated that she is assisting Ken Rhye, Town
Engineer, with the project management for the Snee Farm SRF (State
Revolving Fund) project.
Mrs. Mittermeier stated that the Snee Farm Project was broken into 14
different project areas. She added that each area has three core missions:
flood improvement, water quality, and asset rehabilitation. She added that
they are accomplishing these missions by focusing on pipe rehabilitation,
pipe replacement, canal cleaning, and installation of water quality systems
as shown on the below slide.
Mrs. Mittermeier stated that the below slide shows the 14 different areas
being worked on.

on the project. She added that Woolpert was the design engineer and is
currently providing contract administration and inspection services for the
project.
Mrs. Mittermeier added that there will be 1.2 miles of pipe replacement and
over 2 miles of pipe lining. She added that there is approximately half a mile

8 million dollars. She added that the project has been invoiced for
approximately 2.5 million dollars per their pay application which was
submitted in mid-December. She continued by stating that the first change
order to the contract was for $95,116.80 which includes additional rip-rap,
additional stormwater structures, and pre-lining as shown in the below slide.

Mrs. Mittermeier stated that the below slide shows a brief overview of the
work that has been completed so far in Snee Farm. She added that there are
over 150 line-items on the pay applications and felt that the few selected
show the core missions of the project.
Mrs. Mittermeier stated that the below slide shows the progress in each of
the basins. She stated that the basins in green have been completed.
She added that the yellow basins are basins that are currently being worked
in whereas the red basins are basins that have not received any substantial
work other than some cleaning and pipe closed circuit television (CCTV)
review.

Mrs. Mittermeier stated that there are a few utility conflicts in several
basins that are being addressed with several entities such as: South Carolina
Electric and Gas (SCE&G), Mount Pleasant Waterworks (MPW), Comcast,
and AT&T to work through these issues. She added that Gulf Stream has
been very flexible and is able to move throughout the different basins to
keep forward momentum in the project.
Mrs. Mittermeier concluded her presentation and asked if there were any
questions.
Mr. Owens asked if the percentage of completion for the project was
between twenty-five to thirty percent overall.
Mrs. Mittermeier answered in the affirmative.
Mr. Owens asked Mrs. Mittermeier to confirm the expiration date for the
contract.
Mrs. Mittermeier stated that she believed it was July 9, 2020.

Mrs. Landing stated that she had a few questions related to the residents of
the area. She stated that residents do know this is essential work and that
the Town is moving along well with the project. She asked if there has been
much feedback or concern about aspects of navigating through the
community.
Mr. Peele stated that it has been very quiet regarding the residents’
concerns. He added that the department did extensive Public Relations (PR)
through Jennifer Knight, Communications and Marketing Coordinator, who
has helped us tremendously. He added that Mrs. Mittermeier and several
other staff members, including Hillary Repik, Emily DeMore and Ed Barbee,
have been involved with communications concerning this project.
Mr. Peele stated that more issues will start surfacing in Basin 11 and Basin 7.
He added that this is the area in which we will need to cross Whipple Road
where there is a major waterline.
Mr. Peele added that once construction starts on Whipple Road there will be
more disturbance in the area. He added that when the project gets to those
basins, we anticipate the public voicing their concerns.
Mr. Peele added that there has been a lot of PR and preparation work prior
to the start of this project. He further added that we have met with the
Home Owners Association (HOA) for several years in advance of this project
and they have also helped tremendously with the PR.
Mrs. Landing stated that most of the Council members have communication
with the public either through Facebook, Nextdoor, etcetera. She offered
their assistance in helping to get information out to the residents and
further stated that citizens are comfortable voicing their concerns to the
Council members.

Mr. Owens asked if there were encroachment permits on Whipple Road and
if it would be an open cut, directional drill, or a jack and bore.
Mr. Peele stated that it will be an open cut.
Mr. Owens thanked Mrs. Mittermeier and Mr. Peele for the information.
4. Overview of Refuse Cart Distribution Plan
Mr. Peele stated that this is the second phase of our distribution of roll carts
that are compatible with the new fully automated garbage trucks. He added
that this time last year we were discussing the first phase of distribution
which has now been completed.
Mr. Peele stated that one of the purchased automated garbage trucks is
currently in Columbia, South Carolina at Amick Equipment while the other
truck is in route to Amick Equipment. He added that once both trucks are
delivered to our Six Mile facility, we will begin using them in subdivisions
completed in Phase I.
Mr. Peele stated that we are now preparing to start Phase II and issue
approximately 6,000 roll carts to accommodate the two additional fully
automated garbage trucks that were ordered this year. He added that when
the two new trucks arrive, we would have four fully automated trucks on
the road.
Mr. Peele added that the roll cart replacement program will continue for
several years until all the old roll carts are replaced with new compatible roll
carts.
Mr. Peele turned the presentation over to Andrew Weis, Deputy Director, to
show where we are in this process and what subdivisions we will be going to
next.
Public Services Committee Minutes

Page 10 of 23
Mr. Weis stated that in fiscal year 2018, two fully automated garbage trucks
were purchased and are expected to be delivered in January 2019. He added
that in fiscal year 2019, the Town purchased two additional trucks with a
delivery date that is still to be determined.
Mr. Weis stated that last summer the Public Services Department started
the roll cart replacement program in which we delivered approximately
8,000 roll carts. He added that it is expected that each truck will be able to
collect 1,000 carts per day as we get proficient in the use of the vehicles.
Mr. Weis added that we are delivering new roll carts to new construction
homes as shown in the below slide.
Mr. Weis stated that the map below shows the neighborhoods that are
compatible with the new garbage trucks. He added that the intent was to
spread the roll carts out over the four days of our route collection so that
there will be approximately 2,000 roll carts per route for the new trucks. He
Public Services Committee Minutes
January 3, 2019
Page 11 of 23
added that the map shows phase I and new neighborhoods that receive
compatible carts when construction is complete.
Mr. Weis stated that during Phase II, they plan to replace 6,676 roll carts
which will be purchased and then delivered. He added that Waste Rec
Services Incorporated will deliver the carts as they did for Phase I.
Mr. Weis stated that Waste Rec Services Incorporated was very efficient last
summer in executing the operation. During Phase I we preassembled all the
roll carts and staged them at our Six Mile complex thinking it would make
the process easier. We realized it made the process harder and Waste Rec
prefers to assemble the roll carts as they deliver each cart, therefore we
won’t preassemble the carts.
Mr. Weis stated that they will also try to utilize some of the new Geographic
Information System (GIS) capabilities during Phase II that the Town is
developing. Mr. Weis added that this would make it easier to deliver and
track each roll cart. He added that this is still being coordinated with Frankie
Public Services Committee Minutes
January 3, 2019
Page 12 of 23
Petit, GIS Manager, and the rest of the GIS team as well as Waste Rec
Services.
Mr. Weis stated if it does not seem to make things easier, we will go back to
entering all the information by pencil and paper which worked well in Phase
I.
Mr. Weis stated that they also plan to continue the robust communication
plan. He added that we will continue to update our website, utilize social
media, flyers, and reach out to neighborhood HOA’s. He added that once
these carts are delivered, the old cart will be collected and recycled as
shown in the below slide.
Mr. Weis stated that the map in the below slide shows everything that was
completed in Phase I in green and the other colors represent the routes that
will be delivered during Phase II. He added that at the end of Phase II
everything on this map will be completed and in green, showing the areas
that are compatible with the fully automated garbage trucks.
Public Services Committee Minutes

Mr. Weis stated that the below slide shows the list of neighborhoods for
Phase I and Phase II.
Mr. Weis concluded his presentation and asked if there were any questions.
Public Services Committee Minutes
January 3, 2019
Page 14 of 23
Mr. Owens stated that there were some complaints in Phase I regarding
dirty carts. He asked if this has been rectified.
Mr. Weis stated that was one of the reasons we will not be preassembling
the carts. He added that it took a while to assemble 8,000 roll carts, so they
sat in the storage yard for some time. He further explained that during that
time, it rained a lot, causing dirt from the yard to be splattered on the carts
and some of the rainwater to collect in the carts.
Mr. Weis stated that most of the complaints were regarding rainwater and
dirt on the side and we are hoping by not assembling them, we will not have
as many complaints. He added that once the carts arrive, we will have to
store them in the yard and that is when the water and dirt could potentially
get on the carts.
Mr. Bustos asked how the roll carts are recycled or if they are sold to other
municipalities.
Mr. Peele stated that he had found one or two companies that want this
product but are not willing to pay for it. He added that there is a company
called Envirovision from North Carolina that will come down with their own
staff and load their own trucks and take the carts back to their facility to
recycle them.
Mr. Peele added that if we were to sell the carts, we would have to remove
the wheels, axles, metal bars, and latches. He added that Envirovision takes
the carts as they are, which saves time and money.
Mr. Cunnane asked if the painting of the Town logo on the side of the carts
was an extra cost.
Public Services Committee Minutes
January 3, 2019
Page 15 of 23
Mr. Peele stated that he does not believe so. He added that when the carts
come in, they come with our logo and a serial number provided by the
company we purchase them from.
Mr. Peele stated that the Phase II roll carts have not been ordered yet but
will be in the near future. He added that there could be a six to eight-week
delay but once the carts arrive, Waste Rec will be contacted to schedule
Phase II. He added that we want to make sure all the carts are in our storage
yard before we schedule them to assemble and deliver the carts to
residents.
Mr. Owens thanked Mr. Peele and Mr. Weis for the presentation.
Mrs. Landing stated that when this first started it was about future
efficiency. She asked if the department has seen any benefit.
Mr. Peele stated that none of the new trucks are on the road yet. He added
that they are supposed to arrive in the next few weeks.
Mr. Peele added that once the new trucks arrive, we will then be able to
prove they are efficient. He added that they are efficient because instead of
having two to three men on a truck, we will only have one. He continued
that we will then be able to move that manpower to other operations within
our Waste Management Division. He added that instead of hiring three
additional employees for our vegetative debris section, we will reinvest
manpower from the municipal solid waste section.
5. Discussion of litter from vehicles and restaurants
Mr. Owens stated that Councilman Cunnane asked for the committee to put
this item on the agenda for discussion and review.
Mr. Cunnane stated that the reason he wanted this topic on the agenda is
because during the plastic ban discussion one of the biggest complaints was
Public Services Committee Minutes
January 3, 2019
Page 16 of 23
that we are not doing anything to the individuals who are littering and only
looking at one side of the issue.
Mr. Cunnane stated that when he looks around town a good portion of the
litter that is being thrown from vehicles are eating materials. He added that
one of the things that occurred to him was if a restaurant is selling you food
into your vehicle, like a drive-through restaurant, they should have a trash
receptacle that is accessible to the vehicle as well.
Mr. Cunnane stated that he noticed that there are not a lot of receptacles
around town whereas in other parts of the country they are more common,
and he assumes because they are being required to have it.
Mr. Cunnane asked if we could make a recommendation to staff to look at
other parts of the country and see what they are doing regarding trash
receptacles. He added that if the Town could bolster up the amount of
opportunities to put trash where it belongs at our Town facilities and parks.
Mr. Cunnane added that he does see receptacles around town, but maybe
we could add more. He added that this was the reason he wanted to bring
this topic to the agenda to see what we can do to stop all the litter that is
finding its way to the side of the road.
Mrs. Landing stated that when council was in the second reading for the
plastic and Styrofoam ban, she made an amendment but was new to the
committee and only a council member for three months. She added that it
was a learning curve and that she should have gone through all of council
members to express her idea. She added that there was an amendment that
she wanted to pass, but it was not seconded so we were unable to discuss it.
She added that the amendment was the concept of instead of an outright
ban, having Mount Pleasant as an ecofriendly partner. She added that the
reason she brings this up is because we have been preparing for a year and
now are only a couple of months from this ordinance going into effect and
being enforced. She added that she too has seen a number of things
including litter throughout the Town. She added that we all know this plastic
Public Services Committee Minutes
January 3, 2019
Page 17 of 23
ban is going straight to the source which we know these things are not good
for the environment or people in many cases, but it does not change
people’s behavior when it comes to littering. Mrs. Landing continued by
saying that part of her amendment and one of the things it would address
would be creating a partnership with the Town as opposed to an ordinance
or ban, and that restaurants and other businesses could sign up as one of
their activities to adopt a highway, to do a marsh sweep every quarter, or do
other activities that would encourage and create greater awareness about
keeping Mount Pleasant beautiful.
Mrs. Landing further explained that we do have fines related to litter, but it
is very hard to catch people. She added that another thing she wanted to
address was that when people go into restaurants, most places are still
handing out straws you did not ask for or other things that will be banned by
the ordinance. She added that these places had an entire year to work
through inventory, but handing someone a straw does not have anything to
do with inventory; it has to do with behavior. She added that awareness and
working together and collaborating on these issues is a much more effective
way to change people’s behavior. She continued by stating that we did not
do that and approved the ban and said in one year from now you need to
start doing this and being compliant. She added that if we were able to go
back and combine an educational and awareness program with a
partnership with businesses, she believes we could be a lot more affective.
Mr. Bustos stated that he believes most of the fast food places do have trash
receptacles around. He added that they could have more but believes that
would be up to the business.
Mr. Bustos added that he believes the Town has done a good job. He added
if you go to areas like Pitt Street Bridge, Alhambra Hall, and several other
places, they all have big black garbage barrels that are for people to put
their trash. He stated that he is unsure how we can require people to put
trash in the trash receptacle other than the anti-littering laws. He added that
if the police catch an individual, they will write a ticket.
Public Services Committee Minutes
January 3, 2019
Page 18 of 23
Mr. Bustos stated that we could ask fast food places to put out an additional
trash can, but he does not believe we should require it.
Mr. Owens stated that we do have littering ordinances. He asked if this
would be an opportunity to increase the ordinance into something more
effective.
Mr. Owens asked if Carl Ritchie, Police Chief, would be able to answer this,
and if we are fining people, how many tickets are being written, and if there
is any community service that can be done by perpetrators against the
current ordinance.
Mr. Ritchie stated that they do write tickets when they observe the
violation. He added that he does not have the exact number but can provide
it to the committee once he sees how many tickets have been written.
Mr. Ritchie added that there have been situations where someone is riding
down the road and tosses something out of their car and the police officer
stops them and writes a ticket. He added that they also look at illegal
dumping and if an address is found where that is occurring, they would
address those situations as well.
Mr. Ritchie stated that he believes the opportunities for community service
would need to come from legal or the Town judges if that would be part of
the sentencing. He added that there might be individuals cited with some
type of violation where they could move a fine by collecting trash, he is for
it, but he would need to see what the judges would say and see how that
process would play out.
Mr. Owens asked Mr. Pagliarini what the ordinance says about forcing a
private business to place trash receptacles on its property.
Public Services Committee Minutes
January 3, 2019
Page 19 of 23
Mr. Pagliarini stated that we do have a comprehensive littering chapter in
our ordinances. He added that one of the provisions specifically says in
136.29 that owners of property are required for maintaining the premises
free of litter.
Mr. Pagliarini stated that he believes that is comprehensive. He added that it
does not specifically provide a requirement that there be receptacles, but
the language intimates that since they are responsible for maintaining their
premises free of litter, then that is the preferred practice.
Mr. Cunnane asked if a drive-through restaurant needs a special permit
from Planning.
Mr. Pagliarini stated that it depends on the zoning category.
Mrs. Farrell stated that it would fall under an areawide business.
Mr. Cunnane asked if anyone under an areawide business category can put
in a drive-through.
Mrs. Farrell answered in the affirmative.
Mr. Cunnane stated that he has seen many businesses increase in drive-
throughs throughout the Town and he feels that there are not enough
places to drop trash out of a vehicle. He added that this was his point in
bringing this topic up on the agenda since the volume of trash at drive-
through properties has increased as well as litter throughout the Town.
Mr. Cunnane stated that these businesses are being told to maintain their
own property and are not being given a mandate to discourage littering off
their property.
Mr. Cunnane asked if it would be possible for staff to look and see if any
other areas have required receptacles.
Public Services Committee Minutes
January 3, 2019
Page 20 of 23
Mr. Pagliarini answered in the affirmative.
Mrs. Landing stated that she is unsure of the numbers but would like to
know how many people stay around in a parking lot, so they would be able
to throw away their trash. She added that in most instances, if someone
delivers food to them, they drive off and go somewhere else.
Mrs. Landing added that she feels this could be a government overreach for
us to require more trash receptacles on their property because they serve
things that create litter. She added that she would feel uncomfortable and
that the restaurant owners should be able to make that decision based on
their numbers of how many people sit in the parking lot to eat.
Mrs. Landing stated that she thinks this is an area the Town would want to
stay away from.
Mr. Cunnane stated that he believes there is a distinction between a place
that sends people home with orders and places that serve you in your
vehicle.
Mr. Pagliarini stated that the current ordinance does somewhat address that
issue and does say that no person may deposit or throw litter on private
property. He continued by stating that private property owners may
maintain authorized private receptacles for collection in such a manner that
litter will be prevented from being carried or deposited by the elements or
in the streets.
Mr. Pagliarini stated that this requirement is specific to the property but
does not go as far as providing or requiring property owners some obligation
to prevent off property littering.
Mr. Cunnane stated that he sees work trucks with several individuals in
them go to a drive-though and if there was a trash receptacle in place, they
Public Services Committee Minutes
January 3, 2019
Page 21 of 23
might throw yesterday’s garbage out rather than have it end up on the side
of the road.
Mr. Owens stated that Mr. Cunnane brings up a valid point with regards to
some restaurants, particularly the older drive-ins where you sit in your car
and eat your lunch and usually you put your trash on a tray and it is
collected by the server. He added that beyond that he is unsure where we
can go, referring to what Mrs. Landing stated about drive-throughs: that a
customer picks up his or her food, places it in the car and drives away.
Mr. Cunnane stated that there are plenty of places that only have
receptacles on the inside of the business. He added that if we could require
a receptacle in the parking lot that serves vehicles, I think we would be going
in the right direction.
Mr. Owens thanked Mr. Cunnane for the discussion and stated that he looks
forward to looking at the number of tickets issued by the Police
Department.
Mr. Owens added that he would like to look at the possibility of community
service attached to those who violate the ordinance.
Mr. Cunnane stated that there was a bill in Columbia, South Carolina last
year and he is unsure what the result of it ended up being, but it was a push
to change how community service was handled. He added that it required
supervision on community service. He added that the bill was to push
independent community service where certain individuals would be
assigned certain sections of roads to clean and once they were finished a
supervisor would drive by to make sure the area was clean rather than
watching them the entire time.
Mr. Owens stated that even the perception of community service would
influence the perpetrators who decide to throw trash out of their vehicle.
Public Services Committee Minutes
January 3, 2019
Page 22 of 23
Mrs. Landing stated that she does not think a comment regarding the fact
that a restaurant owner including takeout restaurants are complying to our
ordinance now, she feels that they have at least some type of trash
receptacle. If there is no trash receptacle outside, then maybe that is
something they need to consider. She further added that we would be
taking staff time to second guess the business owners and asked if this is the
best way to use the staff’s time versus other things that they must do. She
added if people think this is something we need to investigate than we can,
but she does not think we need an even more enhanced ordinance to
require it of the business owner.
Mr. Bustos stated that we need to be careful that we are not telling business
owners that they need to take care of public rights of way. He added that a
customer who picks something up at a drive-through window and drives
down the road and throws something out the window is not that business’s
problem. He added that it is the community’s problem because it is being
done in the community. He added that we need to be careful that we are
not saying the businesses are responsible for all the rights of way.
Mr. Owens stated that Mr. Bustos made a good point.
Mr. Owens stated that he appreciated today’s discussion. He added that
going forward we can look at what fines are available and whether we can
shore up our ordinances.
