James Island Development Under Fire | Charleston News

Published 3 weeks ago
Description

James Island’s future is heating up — literally and figuratively — as a new development sparks fierce debate over flooding and traffic. Residents fear more buildings will worsen rising waters, doubting retention ponds can handle heavy rains, while also bracing for gridlock from hundreds of new cars. Developers promise eco-friendly measures, including tree replanting and traffic-calming connections, but longtime locals say they’ve seen the water rise before and aren’t convinced. With a Planning Commission meeting on July 15th at 5 PM, the island’s fate hangs in the balance — and everyone’s invited to speak up.
