May 31—A year after retracting its support for Pride Month, it remains unclear if the Horry County Council plans to take on the matter again. Load Error Adam Hayes, a member of Myrtle Beach's human rights commission and Grand Strand PRIDE, said he submitted a proclamation for the council to consider several weeks ago but had not heard back. "I'm assuming they chose not to respond, which would be my guess after last year," he said. Last May, the council approved a resolution recognizing June as Pride Month but then reversed course at a later meeting after several members said they hadn't thoroughly read the agenda before voting.
