The Town of Edisto Beach has published their new
web site check it out at
TownofEdis toBeach.com

"Now that the town has a web site posting the agendas,
minutes, dates and other official information we have
provided you, EBPOA will no longer post these and will
rely on the Town to keep you up to date.

This site will be used for commentary on happenings at the Town, events of interest to our members, and any items the Town site does not cover."

The Edisto Island museum still has openings for volunteers to work as docents for the Fall Plantation Tour. The tour will be Saturday, October 9, 2010. Each docent will work approximately 2 hrs
and 15 minutes for which you will receive a ticket for the tour. This ticket will permit you to
view each of the other homes on the tour.

This twice-yearly bill charges for six months of water/sewer service but twelve months of garbage service. To rectify this error the Town is allowing users to reduce the Garbage Portion ($137.00 for one container) by half ($68.50). The other half of the garbage portion will then be charged on the second bill in six months as is normally the case

You can check this at Town Hall at 843-869-2505. Town Clerk, Susan Morton extension 213 will confirm this message.

Bids are out for earthwork on Bay Creek Park (formerly Bell Park) - work to be
finished July 22.

The fencing session of November 21 will be the last of 2009 due to the fact that we have used up all the fencing on hand and the permit is expiring Dec 18. A new permit will be applied for by the Town.

We managed to put up about 15 sets of fence, most of which was in straight sections instead of the vee layout. This variation was approved by DHEC-OCRM and we hope will be more turtle friendly and will not trap debris as the vee arrangement did. The straight sections are separated by 10 feet and aligned to the north east-south west.

Thanks to those who helped Sat.: Mike Dumas, Mike Smart, Mark Owen, Larry and Jane Darby, Art DiSalvo, Iris Hill and Bud Skidmore and Pop, Isaac and Julian from the Utility Dept. Bud also helped in the previous session but was inadvertently left off the list. The use of the Town's Gator four wheeler and gasoline post hole digger was invaluable. Bob Doub arranged to have all the material on hand and prospected out the needy areas in advance.

Winter is the season when the wind blows and the sand moves so we should be able to evaluate the straight (shingle style) arrangement by Spring.

Sand Fencing is Working!
