WE ARE YOUR VOICE FOR SMART GROWTH!
Horry County has a GROWING problem.
Development is EXPLODING.
Infrastructure is NOT.
And our natural resources are AT RISK.
HORRY COUNTY PRIDE is the first of its kind, citizens' lobby for smart growth in Horry County. ONE VOICE speaking for THOUSANDS of Horry County citizens, dedicated to preserving the quality of life in Horry County WHILE WE GROW. DEVELOPERS lobby for development. CITIZENS need to lobby for infrastructure and natural resources. HORRY COUNTY PRIDE will do that - working to make positive changes in how we grow, as we grow. Now there is a voice for the people.
"Right now the citizens of Horry County are the bankers for the developers. We pay for the original roads. After the developers develop the area and make tons of money, the citizens pay to widen the very same roads AND we pay for new roads, the new schools, the new libraries, the police and fire stations. The citizens of Horry County are paying for everything, and the developers are walking away with fortunes. Why are we putting up with this?”
Mike Ryan, Horry County District 4 Councilman
Horry County Pride agrees with Councilman Ryan and will work with all levels of government toward solutions.
