Florence business owner concerned about business license fees, tax increases
Florence business owners upset over new tax increase By Cameron Crowe | April 27, 2021 at 9:12 PM EDT - Updated April 27 at 9:12 PM
FLORENCE, S.C. (WMBF) - Several Florence business owners are upset over a recent tax increase linked to a law that was intended to help them.
Act 176 was passed in 2020 to standardize the process of getting a business license across the state.
“A business like ours we sell real estate all over the Pee Dee so we have to get business licenses in Lake City, Marion, Mullins, Hartsville, Darlington, and Timmonsville so getting licenses can become scattered,” Owner of Coldwell Banker McMillan and Associates Joey McMillan said.

STAMFORD A stone in Mill River Park bearing the name of OxyContin maker Purdue Pharma has been removed from the downtown green space after more than 500 people signed a petition calling for the park’s nonprofit manager to take out the marker.
Mill River Park Collaborative board members decided in a meeting this week to remove the stone, and it was extricated from the glade in the park’s north end, according to MRPC officials. The glade will no longer be named after the Stamford-based firm, either.
