The regular meeting of  Town Council is on July 9 at 7:00 PM.   The agenda is here.

The victims of the horrible crime at Mother Emmanuel AME have now been laid to rest, including Tywanza Sanders, who was a graduate of our own James Island Charter High School.

The members of the South Carolina Legislature who represent James Island have all stated their support for removing the confederate flag from the statehouse grounds

I have written Senator Campsen, Senator Thurmond, Representative McCoy and Representative Stavrinakis to share my personal support for their considered judgment.

The Town does not fly any confederate flag, however, I anticipate such flags will be flown from time to time at special events recognizing its role during an important period of the history of our Island.

Mayor Bill Woolsey
