Council approves third reading of ordinance to close 2012 capital project sales tax account
Summary
Hampton County Council approved third reading of an ordinance to accept a closing agreement with the South Carolina Department of Revenue for remaining 2012 capital project sales tax proceeds; the measure passed by voice/raising of hands with no roll‑call recorded.
At the May 27 special call meeting the Hampton County Council conducted a public hearing and proceeded with a third reading of an ordinance to approve a closing agreement with the South Carolina Department of Revenue for the county's remaining 2012 capital project sales tax proceeds.
A council member moved approval of the third reading and the motion was seconded. The chair called for approval by a show of hands; the ordinance was approved by the council. The ordinance provides lawful direction for use of the remaining proceeds, completes the county's closing agreement with the South Carolina Department of Revenue and establishes accountability and reporting expectations going forward, according to Administrator Levar Yumas.
There was no roll‑call vote recorded in the transcript; approval was by general assent. The public hearing was opened before the reading; no public comments opposing the action were recorded during the hearing.
What happens next: The approval completes the council's legislative step for the closing agreement. The ordinance text and the closing agreement with the Department of Revenue were not read into the record in full in the transcript and were not attached to the meeting audio. Any implementation steps or reporting dates specified by the agreement were not included in the discussion and therefore are not specified here.
