“Thank you, Mr. Chairman. It's my honor to recognize the Woollard Technology Center Kershaw County Future Farmers of America chapter and all your accolades and awards that you all got at the state. convention and headed towards national. So I'm going to read a little bit of the proclamation and then name out some of the individual awards, and then afterwards we'll have the group come up for a picture. Whereas the Willard Technology Center Kershaw County Future Formers of America chapter provides students throughout Kershaw County with opportunities to develop leadership, personal growth,…”

“Yeah, I just have one question. I was looking at the amendment. Is the one-foot setback for each one foot in height the standard that we use with all industries here for setbacks?”
County Council · Sep 22, 2026

“So if we had a 100-foot tower and we're looking at 30 yards from somebody's property line, that's going to be 100 foot?”
County Council · Sep 22, 2026
- Play at 1:21:08
“I don't know if council has the appetite, but I wouldn't mind looking at two foot for every one foot in height. I mean, that doesn't kind of change a whole lot, but at least instead of having a 30-yard setback, from a hundred foot, I mean, or 200 foot, you could have, you know, at least a little bit more than half a football field back.”

“Absolutely. I'd like to kind of look at that setback and maybe look at some other industry for power plants across the state and kind of get an idea about what they're doing. So that'd be good for third reading.”

“Thank you, Mr. Chairman. With this being third reading, we've had a lot of discussion regarding the ordinance. Unless staff has anything to input, I say ready to call the vote.”

“Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Instead of reading the resolution, I figured I'd take this opportunity to tell a quick story that dates back to 2015. Everybody remember Hurricane Joaquin that came through and dumped a ton of rain, especially in Columbia. My father-in-law was the commander of the State Guard at that time. So I had the opportunity to go out to Columbia and other places across the state to help assist giving out waters and food and everything. And let me tell you, the men and women in uniform and the state guard that came out, not only for that day, for weeks upon weeks on end, In the…”

“Sheriff, we're in good hands having you as our sheriff. You could tell by just how much you care about the people and exactly what you said. You know, this is a tool that we can use to help with public safety, but also you were monitoring, listening to every one of the citizens, and you said this is not forever. That's something that you can truly tell you have a pulse on the people, and I really appreciate you giving this presentation tonight. I know that this has been a hot topic around the state, Um, and one of the things I really appreciate you doing is you being forward thinking and we…”

“To store them 30 days compared to seven days? There's no cost difference?”

“Thank you, Mr. Chairman. And this would be quick, but my reason for including this on the agenda tonight is to provide transparent information to the public on the operations and the technology related to flock cameras and automated license plate readers here in Kershaw County. I know that there's been a lot of questions and concerns and I had a good conversation with the sheriff and he was not able to make it tonight. He had prior obligations, but that's why I wanted to put it on this agenda. He is going to be providing a presentation on this technology for Kershaw County at the next…”
