Tax referendums to pay for transportation projects will be on the November ballot in Beaufort and Jasper counties. Between the two measures, the counties are seeking to raise about $1.5 billion over the next 10-15 years for road improvements.
The measures are designed to work hand in hand because of the close proximity of the neighboring counties. Join The Post and Courier and Coastal Community Foundation for a panel discussion at 5:30 p.m. Sept. 24. as we dive into what’s at stake and what you need to know to make an informed decision.
A vote either way will have long-term consequences for residents of both counties.
Our panel includes:
Jared Fralix, Assistant County Administrator of Infrastructure at Beaufort County
John Kemp, Jasper County Councilmember
Melissa Levesque, Senior Vice President & Chief Strategy Officer at Coastal Community Foundation
Grant McClure, South Coast Project Manager at Coastal Conservation League
Moderated by The Post and Courier Beaufort County Editor/Reporter Tony Kukulich
Light refreshments will be served followed by a panel discussion.
