AT&T Upgrades
We have been notified by AT&T (March 11, 2025) that they will be coming through the neighborhood to upgrade. Please see the below information provided:
AT&T has a project planned to upgrade their existing facilities in RIVER OAKS HOA, INC. SEE MAP ATTACHED SHOWING THE STREETS THAT WILL BE UPGRADED. The upgrades will upgrade the existing outdated facilities with new state of the art communications facilities allowing for higher internet speeds and more features for residents. No existing service will be disturbed. The project will require digging and boring, so it is important that the community and board be informed of the upgrade as a courtesy. All restoration is guaranteed by AT&T. Attached is a letter to the community with a list of frequently asked questions I believe may be helpful to explain what AT&T will be doing along with a power point showing what it looks like when they are doing the upgrade in pictures and methods of placement. Door hangers will be placed on resident's doors prior to construction. The door hanger will have the name and contact information for the construction company should any restoration be required.
The project is scheduled to start approximately over the next 2-4 months, possibly sooner. AT&T will be ordering locates and placing door hangers prior to construction. Please contact me with any questions you may have. I will be happy to assist with any concerns you have during the project.

Weekly North Charleston PD statistics
Crime statistics for Marsh Side (the only ROHA neighborhood in the city of North Charleston) and other neighborhoods protected by the city of North Charleston Police Department, Charleston County, City of Charleston, city of Summerville, etc., can be found at this site - https://communitycrimemap.com/. Dorchester County Sheriff's Department doesn't submit their statistics regularly but this is a great resource to see what activities occur in our surrounding neighborhoods. Click on the help icon (question mark) in the upper right corner of the screen for assistance with using the site. If you're interested in individual North Charleston neighborhood crime statistics, the board is occasionally provided with a listing from the City of North Charleston - which only includes crime statistics from Marsh Side in River Oaks. Send an email to [email protected] and the files will be sent to your email.
The following information was provided by North Charleston PD to District 9 Representative - Kenneth Skipper. Neighbors in Marsh Side are represented by Mr. Skipper. The rest of the River Oaks neighborhoods are represented by District 3 Representative - Ms. Rita May Ranck (843) 955-9708 RMRanck@DorchesterCountySC.gov. This information is good to know for all neighborhoods - Lock it or lose it.
From NCPD: Breaking and Entering to motor vehicles. Most are left unsecured, and with firearms, electronics, purses left inside. During the course of the night roaming packs are going into the neighborhood and pulling door handles. If it is locked most are just moving on the next car. I can’t stress the importance of locking your car and removing valuables. After these criminals come a few times and find all cars locked we are seeing the crimes reduced. “If there is nothing to steal, they will go somewhere else”.
