Survey shifts SC counties’ borders. How will it impact homeowners?

A plan to redefine the boundary between Florence and Darlington counties is currently paused as lawmakers pursue legislation to keep residents in their current counties. A public meeting discussed discrepancies found by the South Carolina Geodetic Survey, which could affect around 80 residences. Legislators aim to introduce a bill to prevent changes in county affiliation, which would impact taxes, voter registration, and emergency services. Residents expressed their desire to maintain their long-standing addresses. The project is on hold while legislation is developed.
