New Licenses: The City of Folly Beach passed a temporary moratorium in late August 2026 halting new short-term rental business license applications. Reason: The pause gives the city time to complete an STR study and navigate an ongoing legal appeal after a judge struck down the city's previous voter-approved cap of 800 rental permits and registration fees. Next Meeting: The city council is expected to further discuss and consider rental regulations during its full meeting on September 8, 2026. BUYER TO VERIFY.
