Kingstree council unanimously adopts FY 2026-27 budget and rezones 105 Gourdin St.; clerk appends scrivener's affidavit
Summary
On June 15 the council unanimously adopted the FY 2026-27 budget ordinance and approved rezoning 105 Gourdin St. from residential to office commercial. The clerk appended a Scrivener's Affidavit to clarify clerical errors in the spoken ordinance numbers; all motions carried unanimously.
At the June 15 council meeting, Kingstree elected officials unanimously approved two advertised ordinances and several procedural items.
Council voted to adopt the town's FY 2026-27 budget (the legislative text and signed ordinance correspond to Ordinance 2026-01) and to approve a rezoning for 105 Gourdin St. (Ordinance 2026-02) changing the parcel from Residential to Office Commercial. During the oral motions, council members inadvertently cited incorrect agenda numbers; the town clerk later appended a Scrivener's Affidavit (Exhibit A) to the minutes and attached it to the final signed ordinances to permanently clarify the public record and confirm the intended ordinance numbers and texts.
Motions were made and seconded on the floor and carried unanimously. The agenda was also amended at the start of the meeting to add a Waterline Maintenance Contract as Item 8; that interim contract authorization was handled later in the meeting. No contested votes or roll-call dissents were recorded in the meeting minutes for these items.
Summary of formal actions approved on June 15: - FY 2026-27 Budget: Ordinance 2026-01 — adopted unanimously. - Rezoning, 105 Gourdin St. (TM#:11-023-112): Ordinance 2026-02 — adopted unanimously. - Agenda amendment to add Waterline Maintenance Contract as Item 8 — approved unanimously.
The minutes include the Clerk's Scrivener's Affidavit appended as Exhibit A to resolve typographical ordinance-numbering errors in the spoken motions; the affidavit is attached to the official minutes and the final signed ordinances.
