Good morning, Myrtle Beach.

North Myrtle Beach officials held the first community session on short-term rentals last Tuesday, gathering input from over 200 residents who do not own or manage these rentals.

Key concerns—such as enforcement, zoning limits, neighborhood caps, noise, and safety—were noted, and a second session is scheduled for Sept. 30 at 6 p.m. at the J. Bryan Floyd Community Center.

He still faces one pending case, and details of the agreement were not released.

The Surfside Beach Planning Commission approved new rules for vape shops, smoke shops, and tobacco stores to help keep the town family friendly.

The rules require businesses to get special permits, stay a safe distance from schools and homes, ban self-service displays and sales to minors, and let current shops adjust within 180 days—town officials will review the changes with the police chief and town attorney before sending them to the full council.

Legendary former coach Gary Gilmore watched Coastal Carolina play in Omaha in the College World Series and said he will return this weekend to cheer the team as they face LSU in a three-game championship series.

Gilmore (who tallied over 1,100 wins and led CCU to its first national championship in 2016) noted that LSU has yet to present a game plan to stop his former team under new head coach Kevin Schnall.

Nine players from South Carolina—six from Coastal Carolina and three from LSU—will compete in the College World Series finals in Omaha.
