Over 100 Seabrook Island property owners crowded into Live Oak Hall in The Lake House on January 6, 2020, to meet the candidates for the upcoming election of SIPOA Board of Directors and the Nominating Committee.
A series of questions was posed to each candidate in a round-robin format allowing them to introduce themselves, discuss what motivates them to seek their position, and what skills they bring to that position. Each nominee for the Board of Directors was also asked to state the challenges they see facing Seabrook Island. An array of important issues were identified including climate change, sea-level rise, flooding and drainage, aging infrastructure, an aging population, property values, communication technology, security, and the need for consensus building.
A shout out was offered to the nominating committee for their hard work in presenting such a well-qualified slate of candidates for these important positions in our community. Remember to vote!
