Who are We??
SURPRISE! The Georgetown County Water and Sewer District is not a part of the Georgetown County government. The GCWSD is a Special Purpose District created by the South Carolina Legislature in 1967. The District is governed by a seven-member Board of Directors, appointed by the Governor, upon recommendation from the Georgetown County Legislative Delegation. The District serves all of Georgetown County except the City of Georgetown and the Town of Andrews.
What is a Special Purpose District? In general a special-purpose district is a government district like a municipality or county (general-purpose districts), but for a special purpose only. Another good example of a special-purpose district would be a school district.
There are two types of special-purpose districts. Some are independent, in that they are allowed to tax, and others are dependent in that they receive funding only from user fees or from government agencies.
