MOUNT PLEASANT, S.C. (March 27, 2020) – At today’s Emergency Video Conference Meeting, and in response to the impact of COVID-19 on the business
community, Mount Pleasant Mayor Will Haynie and Mount
Pleasant Town Council unanimously voted to temporarily suspend the Environmentally
Acceptable Packaging and Products ordinance to provide businesses with greater
flexibility in their operations, which rely heavily on takeout and delivery
options. Likewise, Council unanimously voted to suspend the Temporary Sign
ordinance and the enforcement of temporary sign regulations, which notify the

of up to 60 days.
