working for working families in Horry County

Families in Horry County are being priced out by growth that isn’t planned responsibly.

I’m running to bring balance, accountability, and affordability back to county government.

Why I’m Running

I’m a third generation Horry County native, a husband, and a father. Like many families in District 11, I want my kids to grow up in a community that’s affordable, safe, and stable.

I’m running because I believe county government should work for the people who live here — not just those who profit from rapid growth.

This campaign isn’t about party politics. It’s about making sure Horry County remains a place where working families can actually afford to stay.

Why Is It Getting So Hard to Live Here?

Horry County has grown fast — and that growth hasn’t been managed with everyday families in mind.

Housing costs are rising. Traffic and infrastructure lag behind development. Property taxes and fees increase while wages struggle to keep up. Many residents feel like decisions are being made around them, not with them.

This isn’t inevitable. It’s the result of policy choices — and county council plays a direct role in those choices.

How we can fix it

  • Choose People, Not Politics

    County government should work for families—not party agendas, donor pressure, or insider interests.

  • Work for Working Families

    If a policy makes life harder for teachers, tradespeople, service workers, or small business owners, it’s the wrong policy.

  • Make Growth Pay Its Own Way

    Growth should help fund roads, schools, and infrastructure—not shift costs onto the people who already live here.

What the County Can Control

(And How I’ll Use It)

County council can’t magically lower prices — but it can stop making affordability worse.

Here’s where county government has real power:

  • County council controls zoning, development approvals, and long-term planning. When developments are approved without infrastructure, housing costs rise and quality of life drops.

    I support:

    • Smarter zoning that allows diverse housing types

    • Holding large developments accountable for roads, drainage, and services

    • Slowing approvals when infrastructure can’t keep up

  • When infrastructure lags, costs get passed to residents through higher taxes, insurance, and commute times.

    County council can:

    • Require fair impact fees on large developments

    • Prioritize road and drainage projects where growth is happening

    • Stop approving growth that strains existing neighborhoods

  • County council sets tax rates, fees, and budgets. Every increase affects families trying to stay afloat.

    I believe in:

    • Responsible budgeting that prioritizes essentials

    • Transparency around where tax dollars actually go

    • Asking tough questions before approving new spending

  • County council can:

    • Push back against unchecked rezoning

    • Protect neighborhood character

    • Balance new development with community needs

The Choices We Make Now Shape the Next 20 Years

The decisions made by county council today will determine whether Horry County becomes a place only investors can afford — or a place where families can still put down roots.

We can choose smarter growth, real accountability, and affordability that lasts.

That’s why this race matters.
