A lot of improvements, more to come
My years on the commission have seen a lot of changes. The revitalization of downtown and the completion of the Riverwalk have made Sanford a destination, bringing new businesses and new people.
Improvements in Goldsboro and Georgetown are continuing, and the mall has new life. A focus on better development standards and better city-wide maintenance are showing results. Improvements are funded for the marina, the golf course, and our water and sewer systems.
Do we still have opportunities for improvement – yes. As a firm believer in collaborative leadership, I look forward to working together to make Sanford an even better place to live, work and play.
