Here's a correction to our social media post yesterday regarding the City of Myrtle Beach's response to the COVID-19 emergency

We apologize for the confusion that was created about whether the emergency order prohibiting new hotel reservations had been extended.  It has NOT been extended at this time.  Mayor Brenda Bethune did sign an extension of the city’s emergency declaration for 30 days, and that remains in effect.  However, we inadvertently published a draft of an updated emergency order regarding accommodation rentals and amusements.  That draft order has NOT been approved and was published in error.  The dates contained in emergency orders 3A, 3B and 3C have not changed. 

Here’s a link to those orders, which remain in effect with a May 1 expiration date:  https://cms6.revize.com/revize/myrtlebeachsc/Consolidated%20Emergency%20Order%203%20(%20as%20amended%20by%203A,%203B,%20and%203C)%20(1).pdf.  You’ll find more information, including links to all of the city’s and the governor’s emergency orders, on our Coronavirus Information page:  https://www.cityofmyrtlebeach.com/coronavirus/index.php.
