Civility. Respect. Solutions.
MoreIn 2021, our board of directors decided to make restoring civility an ongoing top priority for the organization. Since then, we have been working to offer our elected officials the resources, workshops and other tools that will help them listen, learn and de-escalate heated situations. We want our cities and towns to exemplify good governance and civil behavior.

Learn MoreThe Municipal Association of South Carolina, representing the state’s 271 incorporated cities and towns, remains dedicated to the principles of its founding in 1930 — to pursue initiatives that cities and towns can carry out more efficiently and effectively together through the Association than they can individually.
What's New
House and Senate members met in regular session this week. The House of Representatives spent the week debating an abortion bill, while the Senate worked through bills on the calendar and gave final approval to the squat truck ban bill. Senators plan to begin debate S153, the fentanyl trafficking bill, on Tuesday.
The Association developed a statewide online portal for business license renewals. The online portal is for renewals only. New business licenses will still be issued by the city or town. State law requires this system to be hosted by the SC Revenue and Fiscal Affairs Office. To use this free software, municipalities must adopt the standard business license practices.
