# Berkeley County Committee Meetings -  09/14/2026

The Berkeley County SC Government held multiple committee meetings on September 14, 2026, covering a range of procurement and development topics. Key procurement actions included awarding contracts for chemicals used in water and wastewater treatment to Sitco and Brenntag, approving a $581,600 change order for Pump Station 60 upgrades funded by a developer, and awarding a $210,600 contract for compaction services at convenience centers to Smash My Trash as a one-year trial. The county also approved a $711,415.80 change order for the 2026 sales tax resurfacing package to include additional turn lanes and driveway resurfacing. Several zoning and development ordinances were discussed and approved, including a major development agreement for the Lake Village project encompassing over 2,000 acres with infrastructure contributions, stormwater management, and affordable housing provisions. The council also considered amendments to building codes and permit fees, including a proposed increase in administrative fees from $25 to $50 per permit. Conservation efforts were highlighted with a detailed presentation on the county's Greenbelt program, which has protected approximately 45% of county land through partnerships and funding, including a $58 million investment over seven years. Public hearings addressed concerns about stormwater management standards for the Lake Village development, with community members urging adoption of updated 2026 stormwater plans to mitigate flooding risks. Motions related to procurement, contract awards, budget allocations, and zoning changes were passed throughout the meetings.
