AGP Executive Report

Last update: 44 minutes ago

Extreme Heat Watch: South Carolina’s heat index is climbing to dangerous levels, with some areas feeling like 115°F—raising the risk of heat illness for outdoor workers, kids, older adults, and people with chronic conditions. Resilience Funding: The S.C. Department of Insurance is opening applications Monday for the Safe Home Grant Program, which can help homeowners pay for hurricane- and wind-strengthening upgrades like roof retrofits and structural reinforcements. Data Center Backlash: Spartanburg County has paused new data center development for a year while residents and state environmental regulators weigh in on a $2.8 billion project; other counties have moved toward moratoriums too, as concerns grow over energy use and local impacts. Water & Climate Context: A Charleston lawmaker’s “Project Cool Breeze” aims to expand home air conditioning access, highlighting how extreme heat is still a major public health issue across the state. Community Outdoors: Florence County is planning new conservation-based recreation at a 498-acre park, including a cross-country course and pump track.
