Commission approves small duplex on Watson Avenue after owner commits to neighborhood fit
Summary
Commission approved Mark Cross's request to rezone 0.22 acres from SF‑10 to SF‑6 for a duplex at 1591 Watson Avenue in Little River; Cross, who owns neighboring lots, said the project is modest and intended to improve the neighborhood.
The Horry County Planning Commission voted Aug. 7 to rezone 0.22 acres on Watson Avenue in Little River from SF‑10 to SF‑6 to allow a duplex.
Mark Cross, the property owner, told commissioners he owns two adjoining parcels and described the duplex as a modest in‑fill project: "We're trying to build a small duplex. I'm not a developer. I'm just a homeowner," he said. Staff recommended approval; no public opposition spoke during the public‑input period and the commission approved the rezoning by motion.
