Private Development Residential
Bridgewater, Horry County, SC - This project is a re-development of the Baytree golf courses into a large-scale mixed-use residential and commercial development, the project site is a 500+ acre tract located in the Longs community of Horry County, SC, near North Myrtle Beach. The initial zoning effort back in 2007 was a hard fought battle lasting more than 10 months. The zoning was approved and the project began to move forward. Unfortunately, the recession beginning in 2007 caused such poor economic conditions it caused the developer to abandon the project. The project remained dormant for six years until 2015 when new investors purchased the property.
With a new vision, it became apparent that the development would need to go through another rezoning effort to facilitate the changes made necessary by the real estate market and the desires of the Client. The request was recommended by staff, approved unanimously by the Planning Commission and, at third reading was approved 10 to 1 at County Council. The Bay Tree / River Grand project clearly shows DDC’s ability to carry projects through political adversity and provide Clients with the zoning required for successful development.
