Redevelopment Strategies

Policies:

1. Work with Hilton Head No. 1 PSD and property owners to extend sewer service to areas currently dependent on individual septic systems, providing the necessary TIF funding in a manner as approved by Town Council. Scheduling of sewer construction should be coordinated with road construction.
2. Provide lighting along public pathways and at signalized intersections which is designed to illuminate the pathway or intersection without producing excess light, to improve pedestrian safety of these facilities.
3. Work with private property owners to remove sunken and abandoned boats from the waterway and shoreline of Skull Creek, using public funding or grants for a portion of the cost. Participating property owners would provide some public benefit to the Town, such as allowing public access to the waterfront.
4. Use pervious materials for paved surfaces wherever feasible, which will enhance infiltration and reduce stormwater runoff, thereby reducing the amount of pollutants entering Skull Creek or Jarvis Creek.
