Myrtle Beach city council approves first reading of ordinance to restrict long-term rentals to boost tourism.

Myrtle Beach's city council has approved the first reading of an ordinance to restrict long-term rentals, aiming to protect the tourism economy. The proposal follows a $7.6 million revenue loss linked to the shift from short-term rentals. It exempts single-family homes and duplexes and faces opposition from property owners concerned about economic freedom and property rights. The ordinance will be reviewed again soon.
