MYRTLE BEACH, S.C. (WMBF) - Taking a trip to Myrtle Beach may soon cost visitors a little more out of their pockets.
City leaders are considering an ordinance that would make visitors pay a little more for everyone’s safety, especially during the busy summer months.
The Public Safety Enhancement Fee would be a small, but mighty, $3 charge on short-term rental bills like hotels and Airbnb’s.
