In a recent Letter to the Editor of the Post & Courier published on February 24th, the writer suggested that the various Kiawah Island entities planned to form an organization to advocate for new roads “especially a ‘greenway’” through the middle of Johns Island and to hire former South Carolina Speaker of the House Bobby Harrell to serve as spokesman for the organization. The writer further suggests that it is “expected” that the Town of Seabrook Island, the Seabrook Island Property Owners Association and the Seabrook Island Club would contribute to this effort. We can all confirm emphatically that none of the Seabrook Island entities identified in the letter has any intention of contributing to the retention of Bobby Harrell. Each of the three organizations would support legitimate efforts to make Johns Island roads safer and less flood prone.
