SUMMERVILLE, S.C. (WCIV) — A 10-year-old Summerville hero! Aussie Talbott- who saved her entire family from a fire- is now receiving national recognition.

Brave and courageous are a just a few of the words that come to mind when describing Aussie Talbott.

Aussie is a Summerville girl who says she could have never imagined her life would change so quickly.

“It is one of those things that you see happening, you see it on the news or something, but you never think it would happen to you. It was terrible. I am just so thankful everyone was so kind and helpful," says Aussie.

Back in April, Aussie woke up at 4 a.m. to the sight of flames in her home. That’s when she sprinted into action. She woke her entire family up and got them to safety in time.

“In times like that it is okay to be scared, but you still have to be brave, and you have to be prepared for it," says Aussie.

Now Aussie is being featured in the January edition of Highlights Magazine, as an inspiration for how others can be strong, especially in the worst of situations.

“Some people do not have the courage for some things, but I feel like when there is a time like that, because I did not really have much courage, but during a time like that, all of my body gave me courage and bravery, it made me feel like I had to do something,” says Aussie.

Aussie tells us since the fire, life has only gotten better. She and her family have a new home and are back on their feet. Her family says they could not have done it without the help of Flowertown Elementary, Ashley Ridge High School, And Summerville Fire And Rescue.

“Everything has a silver lining, so it will come to you, with us, our silver lining is that we got everything, we are back on our feet now. there is always a silver lining to everything, so I am sure that it will come eventually,” says Aussie.

Aussie has also been recognized by the town of Summerville and the South Carolina State Senate.

SUMMERVILLE — More development plans are in the works for the front of a neighborhood off U.S. Highway 78, and some residents are determined to see it stopped.

“This is not a win-win situation,” said Tom Clark, a South Pointe resident.

Developers with Dan Ryan Builders and South Pointe Ventures are petitioning the town to annex a plot of land from Dorchester County and zone it multifamily residential. The goal is to build townhomes on the nearly 16 acres of land.

Ron Bullman, representative with Dan Ryan Builders, said the townhomes fit into the town’s comprehensive plan. And if town officials see any mistakes in their plans, Bullman said they would be happy to address them.

This is after a similar attempt was made last year to build a 228-unit apartment complex in the same area. That petition was withdrawn following pushback and concerns from residents.

During a Dec. 20 town Planning Commission meeting, some of the same residents gathered to push back against the townhome proposal.

The issues include concerns around increased flooding and altering the feel of their community. The biggest concern is increased traffic.

The neighborhood has only one entrance, off U.S. 78. That intersection is a mile away from the Berlin G. Myers Parkway. Traffic is routinely backed up to the neighborhood.

“We can’t get out,” said Susan Richerson, who has lived in the community for more than 20 years. She and her neighbors have dealt with ongoing issues with flooding where water has risen to several feet. They would prefer that be addressed before more homes are built in the area.

Other issues mentioned included environmental risks due to the wetlands around the property and potentially adding to overcrowded high schools. DD2 officials have pointed to overcrowding in middle and high schools as the main factor preventing them from social distancing in schools.

Dorchester School District 2 teacher Christi Pitchford said she has seen firsthand how crowded some of the schools can get. “These people are going to bring kids,” Pitchford said in reference to the potential townhomes’ residents.

Bullman suggested residents look to the town to address the flooding concerns.

Developers said the plan is to have 30 percent of the land remain wooded to protect the wetlands. They are also open to additional zoning restrictions that would make sure that no apartments are built in the area.

The Planning Commission voted unanimously against approving the annexation. Members said there was nothing legally wrong with the developer’s proposal but said the vote came down to the area not being ready for the additional traffic that would come with the project. U.S. 78 is expected to be widened in the area, but that portion of the road project is years away.

A turning lane at the U.S. 78 and South Pointe Boulevard intersection is also in the works and funded by the developer.

Kevin Carroll, one of the commission members, said he can only imagine what additional townhomes would do to situations where people need fast emergency services.

“That’s a real scary moment,” he said.

In the last year, the town of Summerville has been pushing for more commercial and industrial spaces in the community. Those areas bring more money into the town and help fund resources. More residential spaces mean more areas to extend town services.

During the Planning Commission meeting, town staff members informed the commission that Summerville has long passed the tipping point of being overcrowded with residential spaces.

Bullman said they were open to hearing questions or concerns, and believe the townhomes will be a good fit with the zoning.

The commission’s vote is only a recommendation. Town Council will make the final decision on the annexation. Council meetings take place the second Thursday of each month.

BERKELEY COUNTY, S.C. (WCSC) - The Berkeley County School District has announced that four of its schools will be transitioning to virtual learning for one week because of staffing concerns.

The district said beginning Friday, students at Cane Bay High, College Park Middle, Goose Creek Elementary, and Goose Creek High will learn from home and return to the in-person school setting on Jan. 24.

The temporary conversion to distance learning is due to staffing concerns and not student infection rate concerns, according to the district.

As a result, athletic and extracurricular activities will proceed as normal, district officials said.

“The decision to convert Cane Bay High, College Park Middle, Goose Creek Elementary, and Goose Creek High to distance learning is based on operational concerns,” said Deon Jackson, BCSD Superintendent. “Staffing shortages have greatly necessitated this decision as school staffs continue to be impacted by COVID-19 isolations and quarantine protocol, and the substitute pool is limited when relied upon by 47 schools. We understand the burden this places on our students, staff and families as our shared goal is to provide quality instruction to our students in our buildings; however, we had to consider how the limited availability of staff impacts safety on campus and instruction. We look forward to the return of these students on Monday, January 24.”

The district released the following additional information:

Schools will work with staff and families to ensure that all students receive their Chromebooks. Information concerning access to assignments and livestream instruction schedules will be provided to students and/or parents by principals and teachers.

BCSD will continue to provide breakfast and lunch at no cost to students at these four schools during this temporary conversion to a distance learning platform. Meals will be distributed Monday through Friday by a drive-through pick up service.

Cane Bay High, College Park Middle, Goose Creek Elementary, and Goose Creek High students can pick-up breakfast and lunch (10 a.m. to 12 p.m.) from the following locations:

Students will not be permitted to enter the buildings or eat on-site. Child Nutrition will be using the “roster system” so the names of the students will need to be provided by the person(s) picking up the meals.

“We need the support and cooperation of our families and communities to ensure that staff and students return to school healthy and that our remaining schools stay open,” Jackson continued. “Our schools mirror their communities, so we ask that our families and communities follow SC DHEC guidelines, maintain physical distancing in group settings, practice good hygiene, limit unnecessary interactions and gatherings, and wear a mask when physical distancing cannot be achieved or is not practical.”

Cane Bay High, College Park Middle, Goose Creek Elementary, and Goose Creek High students will return to campuses from distance learning on Monday, January 24. All other BCSD schools will continue to operate in-person following their normal schedules.

Summerville recently attracted national attention as film crews for the first-ever season of UPtv’s “Small Town Christmas” stopped by on their tour of small towns throughout the nation.

Summerville was one of four towns that the crew explored, along with Branson, Mo., Bethlehem, Pa., and Natchitoches, La. Megan Alexander, who is the executive producer and host of the show, said the towns were selected from a list of places she was interested in visiting.

“We needed to find four small towns that kicked things off early in November to get things on air for TV,” Alexander said. “I made a list of small towns that I would love to try to visit and ultimately came down a lot to logistics and scheduling.”

Alexander, who is a mom to three children, said the idea was born from her family’s love of traveling during the holiday season as a way to experience what Christmas is like in different places. When COVID-19 hit, Alexander’s itch to start up the show and travel only continued to grow. This year, she set off to each selected small town to finally film and experience the holidays.

“I thought this would be a boost to local tourism and small businesses,” Alexander said. “The big cities tend to get all of the attention, but I thought, ‘Let’s bring the cameras to them, let’s show them what’s happening in our small towns.’ There’s so many wonderful people, and I knew there would be such an appetite for it.”

Christmas in Summerville

Alexander was joined by a crew of seven other team members, including Kevin McIntyre, who is the director of photography, Kassidy Sell, who is the field producer, and Matt Disbrow, Benji Robinson, Sean Conlon and Nick Smiga, who are members of the film crew.

Tina Zimmerman, who is tourism director for Summerville, said there was a group effort throughout town to help showcase Summerville while the film crew visited.

“Everyone in the town pulled together to make it happen,” Zimmerman said.

During her time in town, Alexander said she visited with local merchants and community members. She filmed segments of the show during the Old Time Summerville Christmas Celebration and the Summerville Christmas Parade.

From staying at the Linwood Inn, located off Palmetto Street, to sipping a peppermint mocha from Cuppa Manna downtown, Alexander said that she feels as though she got the full Summerville experience.

“I felt like I got to experience Southern hospitality by staying there,” Alexander said. “We got to experience the live windows displays and Christmas trees on Mistletoe Lane.”

This year, Zimmerman said, the town’s participation in local events, including the live window displays during the Old Time Summerville Christmas Celebration, was at an all-time high.

“It was a lot of work for them to do the live windows, especially this year with a shortage of staff and what they’ve been through,” Zimmerman said. “But we had record participation and adorable creative windows.”

Zimmerman thinks the publicity Summerville will get from being featured on the show will bring more tourists to the area.

“If we did the same thing we did this year next year, everyone will be glad they visited,” Zimmerman said.

The Summerville episode of the show will have its world broadcast premiere on Christmas Eve at 9 p.m. The show will be aired on UPtv on channel 124.

“I just felt like it was such a blessing and a privilege to tell those stories, to showcase these small towns and the faces behind these small towns,” Alexander said.
