Beaufort County shuts down Pine Island developer's latest request

The Beaufort County Council voted 7-3 Monday to reject a developer’s latest attempt to remove land he owns from a type of zoning that is blocking a proposed golf course strongly opposed by many residents. It was the third time since 2023 that the county rejected zoning changes sought by Elvio Tropeano, that would lift a Cultural Protection Overlay (CPO) from 502 acres on St. Helena Island off of Dulamo and St. Helenaville roads. Tropeano’s company, Pine Island Property Holdings LLC, has been trying to build a golf course-centered housing development on the property for years. The CPO allows residential development but prohibits golf courses, gates and resorts. Monday’s vote does not end the dispute. Tropeano, who is suing the county over the zoning issue, publicly outlined a proposed settlement at Monday’s meeting. But council members rejected it, meaning the litigation will continue. The decision on the zoning and settlement questions followed hours of testimony as opponents and supporters revisited the long-running and increasingly contentious dispute pitting development against St. Helena Island’s cultural heritage. Tropeano and his attorney, Kevin Dukes, have argued that the county is treating the project unfairly compared with other developments. They also criticized the county planning

Much of the multifamily industry runs on a short clock. Funds are built around fixed hold periods, capital is expected back on schedule, and properties often change hands once projections are met.
