Weaver v. Recreation District

Summary

The South Carolina Supreme Court affirmed the circuit court’s declaratory judgment that S.C. Code Ann. § 6‑11‑271 does not violate the state constitution’s prohibition on taxation without representation, the ban on special legislation, or the Home Rule provisions. The Court held the General Assembly, an elected body, validly enacted the statute and that any millage modifications require county council approval, satisfying constitutional requirements.
