The City Council of Hanahan, South Carolina, convened on March 11, 2025, to discuss various community developments and upcoming events. The meeting began with an enthusiastic preview of a new Italian restaurant set to open soon, which is expected to enhance the local dining scene by providing a family-friendly atmosphere with quality food and wine.
Following this, City Administrator Courtney provided updates on several key projects. The Creekside at Stewart Street Park is nearing completion, with a grand opening scheduled for April 4 at 3 PM. Residents are encouraged to carpool due to anticipated traffic congestion.
The council also discussed ongoing enhancements at Hawks Nest Park, including the addition of restroom facilities and a covered pickleball court. However, the restroom project has encountered budget challenges, prompting discussions on a design-build process to manage costs effectively.
Additionally, the council addressed delays in the construction of basketball courts in Otranto, attributed to difficulties in accessing private property for surveying. Plans for the Senior Center addition are progressing, with updated designs being finalized.
The meeting highlighted the stormwater infrastructure project on Yeomans Hall Road, which has faced minor delays due to additional requirements from Charleston Water Systems, but funding remains secure.
Upcoming community events were announced, including a capital improvement plan workshop on March 24, a farmer's market grand opening on April 9, and a senior center open house on April 15, featuring various fitness demonstrations and activities.
The council emphasized the importance of community engagement and encouraged residents to stay informed through the city’s website and social media channels. The meeting concluded with an invitation for further comments from council members, reflecting a commitment to transparency and collaboration within the community.
