North Myrtle Beach heard from residents over Amazon's drone plans. Was it approved?

The North Myrtle Beach Planning Commission unanimously shot down plans for an Amazon drone pad following fierce public pushback. The online mega retailer sought to introduce its first drone delivery service in South Carolina from its North Myrtle Beach site on Water Tower Road, but Amazon can’t move forward without approval from the city’s Planning Commission to establish a drone launch-and-landing pad. “I’m done talking about drones,” Planning Commission member Callie Jean Wise said at a Tuesday meeting. Dozens of residents showed out at the meeting, citing concern for noise, safety, wildlife and more. Earlier this month, a city staff member told The Sun News that North Myrtle Beach received “almost overwhelmingly negative” feedback from the public surrounding the drones. If approved, the battery-powered 5-foot-by-5.5-foot drones would have flown between 60 and 74 mph to deliver products in a 7.5-mile radius, excluding certain no-fly zones. Amazon currently offers drone deliveries with a 60-minute window in 16 areas around the country. It’s unclear if the company will continue trying to pursue drone service in Horry County or if it plans to implement the speedy deliveries elsewhere in South Carolina. The Sun News did not immediately receive a response from Amazon.

Developer ready to spend $7M on Conway venture, rebrand water tower

Commentary: A Good Tax Proposal

It’s rare that we can look at a tax as a good thing, but the quarter-cent sales tax on the Nov. 3 ballot (also your early ballot) is a tax everyone should get behind. It’s one-quarter of one penny on top of the 6.75 pennies charged on every dollar value of a purchase. The state takes 4.75 of that.

Ellerbe Farmers Market grew out of one man’s garden. Its history is rooted in family tradition.

TIMMONSVILLE – On days when Harold Ellerbe is grilling outside his farmers market — barbecuing everything from chuck roast to ribeye steak — it’s difficult to find parking there or at the Dollar General next door. Ellerbe Farmer’s Market, located at 2306 Walker-Swinton Road, is open six days a week inside a roughly 530-square-foot barn. Ellerbe greets every customer who walks up and happily answers questions about how to prepare the dozens of vegetables and fruits that line the walls and tables. Among them are muscadine grapes, tomatoes, zucchini, turnip greens and watermelons. The market sits...
