The council approved on second reading an ordinance updating the Town of Fort Mill’s business license class schedule as required by the state Business License Standardization Act (Act 176 of 2020).

Chris Pettit (speaker 3) told the council that there were no changes to the ordinance since the prior presentation and explained that the statute standardizes business‑license classifications across jurisdictions that levy such licenses. Mayor (speaker 1) moved to approve the second reading and a councilmember seconded; the council passed the ordinance by voice vote. The transcript records only a voice vote; a numeric roll‑call tally was not read into the record.

Pettit offered to answer questions and councilmembers had none; no additional local amendments were noted during the meeting.

The ordinance updates the town’s internal class schedule to conform with the state law; implementation details (effective date, municipal administrative steps) were not specified in the transcript.
