CHAIRMAN, IT'S, YOU NEVER GAVE ME AN ADDRESS OF WHERE THEY WERE GONNA VOTE, WHERE THEY WERE GONNA LIVE, SO I COULDN'T GIVE YOU AN ADDRESS OF WHERE THEY WOULD VOTE OR POLLING PLACE WHERE THEY WOULD VOTE.
SO LAKE SHORE DRIVE, WITHOUT LOOKING AT THE MAP, I CAN'T TELL YOU WHERE THEY'LL VOTE.
EVERYBODY IN THE COUNTY, EVERY ROAD IN THE COUNTY SHOULD HAVE A VOTING PLACE, OKAY? AND NEITHER DO I WHAT THE OFFICE DOES OR THE STATE DOES, BUT IF YOU'LL GET ME AN ADDRESS, I CAN CERTAINLY GET YOU AN ANSWER.

HAVE THE CHAIRMAN'S REMARKS AND TALK ABOUT THE TURVILLE ELECTION.UM, ONCE AGAIN, I KNOW WE'VE ALREADY THANKED HIM SEVERAL TIMES, BUT WE WANT TO THANK RANDY CURTIS AND TIFFANY SMITH WITH THE STATE ELECTION COMMISSION.
THEY STEPPED IN AND DID A GREAT JOB, UM, RUNNING THE TURVILLE ELECTION FOR US AND WE ARE CERTAINLY THANKFUL FOR THAT.
THANKS THEM AND THE STATE ELECTION COMMISSION.
THE REST OF THE STAFF MEMBERS THEY HAVE UNDER NEW BUSINESS.
[X. NEW BUSINESS ]
THE NEW BUSINESS.WE HAVE THE FIRST ONE IS A RECOMMENDATION FOR THE BOARD OF VOTER REGISTRATION AND ELECTIONS OF CLANTON COUNTY TO RETAIN THE APPROVAL OF ALL POLL MANAGERS, POLL CLERKS, UH, PER SE CODE 7 13 72.
AND THIS IS NOT TO SAY THAT WE DON'T ALREADY HAVE THAT.
WE WANNA MAKE SURE THAT IT HASN'T BEEN DELEGATED TO SOMEBODY ELSE, TO STAFF.
AND SO THERE IS A RECOMMENDATION ON THE FLOOR IF, UM, IF THE WISHES OF THE BOARD, UM, ASK FOR A MOTION.
MR. CHAIRMAN, I MAKE A MOTION THAT WE RETAIN THE APPROVAL AS THE BOARD OF VOTER REGISTRATION AND ELECTION CLA COUNTY THAT WE RETAIN THE APPROVAL OF ALL POOL MANAGERS POLL CLARKS PER THE CODE, HAVE A MOTION ON THE FLOOR FROM VICE-CHAIRMAN MCGALL THAT THE BOARD OF VOTER REGISTRATION, UH, WE'RE GONNA, OUR TIMER, SORRY ABOUT THAT.
HAVE A MOTION ON THE FLOOR FROM VICE THAT THE BOARD OF VOTER REGISTRATION AND ELECTIONS OF CLA COUNTY RETAIN THE APPROVAL OF ALL POLL MANAGERS AND POLL CLERKS PER CAROLINA CODE 7 13 72 AND ANY RELATED CODES THERE.
SECOND, I, SECOND, SECOND FROM MR. STRAT IS ANY DISCUSSION? ALL IN FAVOR? AYE.
ANY OPPOSED? ANY ABSTAINED? IT'S UNANIMOUS.
NEXT WE GOT A, A RECOMMENDATION TO ADOPT A 2026 REGULAR SCHEDULED MONTHLY MEETINGS AND OUR MEETINGS BY POLICY OR THE LAST MONDAY OF THE MONTH.
THE MEMORIAL DAY HOLIDAY IS MAY 25TH AND AN ALTERNATE DAY, WHICH IS ALSO A COUNTY HOLIDAY.
BUT THE A AN ALTERNATE DATE COULD BE MAY THE 18TH.
WE'VE TALKED ABOUT THIS BEFORE ACTUALLY, UM, THIS YEAR WE TALKED ABOUT IT AND CHANGED, MOVED TO MAY MEETING TO JUNE.
UM, ONE OF THE ISSUES I THINK THE BOARD HAS A HAD AS A WHOLE WAS THAT WE DIDN'T FEEL RIGHT NOT HAVING A MEETING IN MAY, ESPECIALLY WHEN THERE WAS, WOULD BE A PRIMARY BEFORE WITHIN A MATTER OF DAYS OF THAT MEETING.
AND WE'LL MAKE SURE THAT WE DIDN'T NEED TO MEET.
WE CAN CERTAINLY ALWAYS CANCEL A MEETING OR MOVE A MEETING.
BUT THE, THE MOTION, THE RECOMMENDATION IS THAT WE MEET THOSE LAST MONDAYS OF EACH MONTH WITH THE EXCEPTION OF MAY.
AND THAT MEETING WOULD BE MAY THE 18TH INSTEAD OF MAY 25TH.
UM, WHY DON'T WE SEE IF THERE'S A MOTION THEN A SECOND THEN WE CAN DISCUSS IT.
IF WE HAVE ANY DISCUSSIONS, I MAKE A MOTION THAT WE RECOMMEND TO ADOPT THE 2026 REGULAR SCHEDULED MONTHLY MEETINGS.
JANUARY 26TH, FEBRUARY 23RD, MARCH 30TH, APRIL 27TH, MAY 25TH, JUNE 29TH, JULY 27TH, AUGUST 31ST, SEPTEMBER 28TH.
OCTOBER 26TH, NOVEMBER 30TH AND DECEMBER 28TH WITH KNOWING THAT MAY 25TH IS MEMORIAL.
OUR ALTERNATE DAY WOULD BE MAY ON MAY 18TH.
SO A MOTION ON THE FLOOR BY SECRETARY KIL WANTED THE 2020 SIXTH REGULARLY SCHEDULED.
MONTHLY MEETING DATES WOULD BE THE LAST MONDAY OF EACH MONTH WITH THE EXCEPTION OF MAY, WHICH WOULD BE MAY THE 18TH.
IS THERE ANY DISCUSSION? ALL IN FAVOR? AYE.
ANY OPPOSED? ANY ABSTAINED? JUST FOR THE PUBLIC'S KNOWLEDGE, WE HAVE TO PUBLISH OUR 2026 CALENDAR
[00:15:01]
NO LATER THAN DECEMBER 31ST.AND, AND NEXT IS WE HAVE, UM, TO REVIEW THE NOVEMBER 18TH DISCUSSION WITH THE TOWN OF SOMEONE AND MAYOR AND A COUNCIL MEMBER AND THE TOWN ADMINISTRATOR AND THE UPCOMING COUNCIL MEETINGS ON DECEMBER 9TH WITH THE TOWN OF PAX AND THE TOWN OF TURVILLE REGARDING THE LOCATION FOR THEIR 2026 EARLY VOTING.
SO, UM, THE BOARD HAS BEEN AWARE FOR ABOUT A MONTH NOW THAT EARLY VOTING DOES NOT HAVE TO TAKE PLACE IN MANNING AND IN THE TOWN.
THAT'S A LITTLE BIT CONFUSING, BUT LIKE SUMMER'S ELECTION THEY CAN HAVE EARLY VOTING AND IT'S ONLY IN SUMMERTON.
IT DOES NOT ALSO HAVE TO BE IN MANNING.
AND THIS CAME ABOUT WITH IN JUNE WHEN THE MAYOR OF TURVILLE REQUESTED A COST AND INFORMATION AND WAS GIVEN WRONG INFORMATION BY THE STAFF THAT IT HAD TO BE HELD BOTH PLACES, WHICH WOULD DOUBLE THE COST OF THEIR ELECTION.
SO THE STATE ELECTION COMMISSION IN CONVERSATION WITH US IN GETTING READY FOR TURVILLE, UM, MADE US AWARE THAT THAT IS NOT CORRECT, THAT TURVILLE COULD IN FACT HAVE THE ELECTION IN TURVILLE AND NOT EARLY VOTING AND NOT HAVE TO HAVE IT IN MANNING AS WELL.
SO WE MET WITH THE TOWN OF SOMEONE AND GAVE THEM THEIR OWN THAT INFORMATION.
AND THEN WE ARE SCHEDULED TO BE ON THE AGENDA FOR THE PAX FULL AND THE TURVILLE ELECTIONS, WHICH ARE BOTH ON DECEMBER THE NINTH.
SO WE'RE GONNA DIVIDE AND CONQUER, UM, BUT JUST TO MAKE EVERYBODY AWARE, BUT, SO THIS TO US IS REALLY A PLUS FOR THE TOWNS.
UM, TURVILLE IN PARTICULAR IS THE ONE WHO STARTED IT.
UM, AND WITH THAT IN MIND IT'S ABOUT
SO YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT 40 MILES FOR SOMEBODY TO COME, I'M SORRY, 20 MILES ONE WAY.
SO ABOUT 40 MILES FOR SOMEBODY TO COME EARLY BOAT.
SO THIS COULD BE VERY BIG FOR THEM, FOR ATTAINABLE AND NOT COST THEM ANY MORE MONEY THAN WHAT THEY ALREADY PAID.
SO THAT'S REALLY NO MOTION NEEDED.
UM, WE ARE WAITING ON THE TOWNS TO SEND US A COPY OF THEIR ORDINANCE IF THEY DECIDE TO, TO, UM, HAVE THE ELECTION IN THEIR TOWNS AND THEY'LL SEND US AN ORDINANCE, A COPY OF THE ORDINANCE ASKING FOR THAT.
SO THERE'S NOTHING WE NEED TO DO TONIGHT OTHER THAN JUST INFORMATION, ANY QUESTIONS FROM THE BOARD.
WE USE THE BVR AND EC OFFICE CURRENTLY LABELED ELECTIONS CLERK AS AN OFFICE FOR THE BOARD MEMBERS TO USE FOR OFFICIAL BUSINESS.
IT WAS BROUGHT TO OUR ATTENTION ON ELECTION NIGHT THAT THERE IS A FULLY EQUIPPED OFFICE IN THE BOARD OFFICE, UM, THAT IS MARKED ELECTIONS CLERK AND THAT THAT IS USED ON ELECTION NIGHT AND MAYBE THE NEXT DAY.
SO IN A BUSY YEAR THAT WE GOT AN OFFICE DEDICATED THAT'S BEING USED FOR SEVEN NIGHTS AND WE'LL JUST DOUBLE IT AND SAY 14 DAYS OUT OF A YEAR AND THE REST OF THE TIME IT'S NOT BEING USED.
AND SO THAT WOULD GIVE US UM, A PLACE TO USE AS BOARD MEMBERS.
AND UM, SO THAT IS A RECOMMENDATION FOR A MOTION THAT WE USE THAT OFFICE AS A BOARD FOR THE BOARD MEMBERS FOR OFFICIAL BUSINESS.
I MAKE A MOTION THAT WE U UTILIZE THAT FOR THE BOARD MEMBERS, THE ELECTION CLERK.
OKAY, SO WE GOT A MOTION FROM MS. COOPER THAT WE, UM, USE THE BOARD OF VOTER REGISTRATION ON ELECTIONS OF CLAN COUNTY, AN OFFICE, CURRENT LABELED ELECTION CLERK AS AN OFFICE FOR THE BOARD MEMBERS TO USE FOR OFFICIAL BUSINESS.
ANY DISCUSSION? ALL IN FAVOR? AYE.
ANY OPPOSED? ANY ABSTAIN? IT CARRIES UNANIMOUS.
[XI. EXECUTIVE SESSION]
WE HAVE A EXECUTIVE SESSION TO DISCUSS PERSONNEL MATTERS AND CONTRACTUAL MATTERS AS LISTED ON THE AGENDA.DO I HAVE A MOTION FOR THE EXECUTIVE SESSION? MR. CHAIRMAN, I'LL MAKE A MOTION THAT WE GO INTO EXECUTIVE SESSION FOR PERSONNEL MATTER, OTHER MATTERS AND CONTRACTUAL MATTER AS THE AGENDA SPECIFIES.
OKAY? GOT A MOTION FROM VICE CHAIRMAN AL THAT WE GO
[00:20:01]
INTO EXECUTIVE SESSION, DISCUSS PERSONNEL MATTERS AND OTHER MATTERS AND ALSO THE CONTRACTUAL MATTERS THAT ARE LISTED ON THE AGENDA.I SIR, IS THERE A SECOND? SECOND FROM MS. COOK? ALL.
ANY DISCUSSION? ALL IN FAVOR? AYE.
ANY OPPOSED? ANY ABSTAINED? IT CARRIES UNANIMOUSLY UNDER SOUTH CAROLINA CODE LAWS 34 30 DASH FOUR DASH 70 B.
UH, OUR PURPOSE IS TO REVIEW APPLICATIONS FOR DIRECT POSITION AND POSSIBLY INTERVIEW CANDIDATES FOR SAME TO RECEIVE AND DISCUSS FINDINGS FROM THE BVR AND ECC BOARD ATTORNEY REGARDING PERSONNEL MATTERS TO RECEIVE AND DISCUSS FINDINGS FROM THE BVR AND ECC BUDGET REVIEW COMMITTEE AND TO REVIEW AND DISCUSS THE INVOICE FOR THE TOWN OF TRUMPVILLE ELECTION.
I WILL TELL YOU THAT WE ARE NOT INTERVIEWING CANDIDATES TONIGHT.
SO THE REST OF THAT IS CORRECT AND WE'RE GONNA ADJOURN TO EXECUTIVE SESSION SESSION AND WE APPRECIATE YOUR PATIENCE.
THANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR PATIENCE.
I THINK MY DREAM IS TO HAVE A MEETING WITH NO EXECUTIVE SESSION AND I'M SURE THAT'S Y'ALL'S TIP.
