Myrtle Beach International Airport update

Myrtle Beach City Council members could extend a small olive branch to Horry County today in passing a resolution regarding the Myrtle Beach International Airport.
Councilman Wayne Gray's resolution reiterates one the city passed in July supporting one runway; a new or expanded east-side terminal; expanding Harrelson Boulevard; and reducing airlines' landing costs and developing marketing campaigns for the area and the airport.
The potential peace pipe is a clause that says the city would "serve as a 'co-applicant' with the county" to all city boards and commissions on building permits for the east-side terminal.
"We'd be placing our stamp of approval on the east-side terminal," Gray said, though not making any financial obligation to the building process.
Whether the county accepts the offering remains to be seen. County Council recently resolved to ask the city to remove its Community Appearance Board from the airport planning process and to ask the city about a second runway.
In April, the appearance board tanked the county's plans for a west-side terminal.
More than a month ago, the county asked the city to support including a second runway in the airport's master plan; the city held fast to its position that one runway is sufficient
