Horry County looking at local data center control policy amid state-level talks

Horry County, South Carolina, is actively exploring the implementation of a local policy to regulate data center development. This initiative is being undertaken in conjunction with ongoing state-level discussions concerning data center control. The current zoning ordinance within Horry County lacks specific provisions for data centers, which has led to ambiguity in how these projects are to be reviewed. This regulatory gap is causing uncertainty regarding their potential impacts on nearby properties.
