) \ I MUNICIPAL PLANNER SAYS City-County Cooperation Needed It Could Look This The above picture illustrates how the heart of downtown Clinton could look—with a little ex tra community effort and planning. The drawing was prepared by representatives of the Wilbur Smith and Associates firm which currently is conducting a long-range survey in Clinton. A spokesman for the company emphasized This is not a suggestion or a recommendation. It’s just a drawing to show what could be done if the pe destrian mall effect were adopted, a few trees planted and store fronts were made more uni- farm.’ 8-A—THE CHRONICLE. Clinton, S.

World agricultural pro duction increased about 3% in 1968. The rise in the United States was just under 2%. More coordination between municipal and county govern- mentals units is going to be re quired in this area in the fu ture, a representative of Wil bur Smith and Associates said Monday at a meeting sponsored by the Clinton Planning Com mission. F. John Devaney, a member of the executive committee of Wilbur Smith and Associates, said, “Much of Clinton’s growth is taking place outside the city limits. Therefore, cooperation between the officiails of Laurens County and Clinton is going to be mandatory if the Clinton area is going to enjoy orderly, well-planned growth.* Devaney was featured speak er at a luncheon at which Clin ton’s Land Use Plan and Pre liminary Thoroughfare Plan were officially presented to the city. This marked the com pletion of one phase of Wilbur Smith and Associate's long- range planning survey of Clin ton. The second phase, now underway, will be concerned with zoning and building codes. In addition to Planning Com mission members and Clinton City Council, those attending the meeting included Congress man James Mann, State Sen. Bob Lake, State Reps. David Taylor and Paul Culbertson, and representatives of Presby terian College and Whitten Vil lage. In his remarks, Devaney also warned, “If your central bus iness area isn’t improved, you could lose much in retail sales if a new shopping center should be constructed on the outskirts of town. I have no knowledge of such a proposal but it is always a possibility and you should put your best foot forward in the downtown area if you wish to preserve it Shoppers in Clin ton are just as smart and dis criminating as these in Chicago and other large metropolitian areas.* Phil Simons, project director of W llbur S mith and A ssociate s, officially presented the Land Use Plan which shows that the population in the greater Clin ton area should be approxi mately 26,000 by 1990 and the population within the city limits is expected to be 15,000. Following the presentation of the report, there were con ducted tours of Clinton’s new city hall.
