County Council Meeting

The Horry County Council meeting held on May 20, 2026, included public input primarily focused on property tax disparities experienced by a resident owning multiple properties. The council recognized a long-serving employee in the Fire Department and discussed several budget amendments, including funding for capital projects such as the Little River waterfront, Rural Civic Center, and natatorium. A budget amendment was passed to allocate funds for studies and designs related to a Construction and Demolition (C&D) transfer station, with requirements for quarterly progress reports and water quality testing. Multiple zoning ordinance amendments and rezoning requests were considered, with motions passed for several, while one rezoning request was withdrawn. No direct contract awards or procurement decisions were detailed, but budget allocations for capital improvement projects were approved, indicating ongoing infrastructure investment.
