Updated recycling pickup day
The county has changed its pickup schedule, and starting on June 10, 2022 our day will be Friday morning. While this means twice as many days for cans to be on the street, it should make things less congested for the trucks.

Local Updates from Councilman Shahid
Dear Neighborhood Association Presidents:
I will hold my next constituent meeting, “Coffee and Conversation with Peter”, 10:00am, Saturday, May 14th, in the class room at Charles Towne Landing. The conceptual plans of the proposed Sumar Street (the former Piggly Wiggly) site will be presented at this meeting. This will be the third public showing of the vision for the redevelopment of this property. I encourage you and your family, neighbors and friends to attend.
There are other events I wish to call to your attention:
First, attached and listed below is the City Council agendas for next week’s committees and council meeting.
Second, as noted below is the agenda for the West Ashley Revitalization Commission meeting to be held at 5:30 on May 11th at the Bees Ferry Public Library.
Third, on Thursday May12th the first of three road races/walks will be held at Charles Towne Landing, which is organized by Friends of the Landing. The other 2 races within this series is May 26th and June 16th. These races include a kids race and are followed by a dinner hosted in Founder’s Hall. These are family oriented races and is a fun opportunity to spend time with family, friends and neighbors. The run begins at 7:00 pm and the kids run is held beforehand.
Finally, Charleston Moves is holding its second annual Ride of Silence on May 18th, in conjunction with the International Ride of Silence. This ride will be their third over the North Bridge. They will start and end outside of Frothy Beard Brewing in West Ashley. Ride of Silence is a bicycle ride that takes place across the globe at approximately the same time, during which we honor those we have lost on our roadways.
