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.’

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.
