Improving North Myrtle Beach
The North Myrtle Beach City Council will hold the Annual Budget Retreat, scheduled for April, where they will consider proposals for the 2024/2025 fiscal year. A few projects that may be up for approval include: • New pickleball courts at the J. Bryan Floyd Community Center, given the sport’s rising popularity. • Potential expansion of the NMB Aquatics and Fitness Center to add more pools and gym space.
With the ending of 2023 and the beginning of a new year, it is time to turn our focus on all that is to come in 2024. As many of you know, the City’s fiscal year budget begins in July and runs through June. This means North Myrtle Beach has reached the midpoint of the 2023/2024 fiscal year. The first half of 2024 will see good progress on several key projects that are included in the current 2023/2024 budget:
• Construction of the new Fire Station 7 off Water Tower Road will begin, improving emergency response times on the south end of the City. • Work will commence on extending Champions Boulevard, which will alleviate traffic congestion around the Park & Sports Complex. • The NMB Park & Sports Complex will start its expansion project, allowing the City to host more regional tournaments and events.
