Zoning Board of Appeals

The Horry County Zoning Board of Appeals held a hearing on November 10, 2026, and considered property-use and setback variances; no procurement, contract awards, or spending decisions were identified. Two cases were withdrawn. In a reconsidered application for three proposed 8,000-square-foot lots at Chuck Lane and Fry Avenue, the applicant sought an 8-foot lot-width variance; neighbors raised concerns about density, drainage, and site plans. The board held a roll-call vote, but the final tally and outcome are unclear in the transcript.

The board approved several other variances, including a 3-foot rear setback for a pool at 428 Vista Drive; a 5-foot rear setback for a garage at 3325 Hughes Gaski Road; a 3-foot rear setback for a carport at 3995 Cattail Circle; variances for accessory structures at 6800 Browns Way Shortcut Road; and a 15-foot rear setback for a home at Ocean Lakes Campground. It also approved a variance allowing a dumpster forward of the principal structure for the proposed Parker’s Kitchen at Highway 9 and 905, citing the double-frontage lot, and approved setback variances for existing homes at 2460 Sanford Road. A restaurant application seeking 24 fewer parking spaces than required and three additional compact spaces was discussed amid objections about parking, trees, notice, and neighborhood impacts; the transcript does not clearly capture the vote on that request.
