"Section 4-23-10. There is hereby established the Murrell's Inlet-Garden City Fire District in Georgetown and Horry Counties bounded as follows:
Commencing at the high watermark of the Atlantic Ocean on the northern property line of the property of Huntington Beach State Park and running thence in a westerly direction along the northern property line of said State Park to U.S. Highway No. 17; thence continuing in a general westerly direction along the northern property line of lands of Brookgreen Gardens to the Waccamaw River; thence in a general northerly direction along the eastern bank of the Waccamaw River to Collins Creek; thence continuing along the eastern bank of Collins Creek to Cedar Swamp; thence continuing along the eastern bank of Cedar Swamp to a point where a projection of the boundary line between Lewis Brothers and R. B. Hunsburger would intersect said Cedar Swamp; thence running in an easterly direction to U.S. Highway No. 17; thence in a northerly direction along the eastern right-of-way of U.S. Highway No. 17 to Melody Lane, the city limits of Surfside Beach; thence in an eastern direction along the southern right-of-way of Melody Lane to the Atlantic Ocean; thence along the high watermark of the Atlantic Ocean in a southerly direction to the property line of Huntington Beach State Park, the point of beginning. Also the property of Collins Creek Baptist Church situate on the West side of Collins Creek. Effective January 1, 2016, the district consists of that area shown on the official map prepared by and on file with the Revenue and Fiscal Affairs Office designated as document F-43-51-16, and as shown on certified copies of the official map which must be kept on file at the fire district."
