‘Historic’ flood protections now in place as Horry County works toward resiliency plan
HORRY COUNTY, SC (WBTW) — New flood prevention measures are now in effect for Horry County after the county council’s vote Tuesday night.
New homes in flood zones must now have a three-foot freeboard elevation, which is the distance between the flood line and first floor.
A local group calls the new measures historic, but still wants to see more done.
