WINNSBORO – With the help of the MRB Consulting Group, Fairfield County is taking steps to develop a comprehensive strategic plan to guide the county government’s efforts and investments over the next 5–10 years, according to County Administrator Vic Carpenter.
“The plan will set clear priorities, align resources and create a shared vision for growth, economic development and quality of life,” Carpenter said. “By engaging community members, local leaders, and key partners, Fairfield County aims to make thoughtful, data-driven decisions that strengthen services, support opportunity, and ensure long-term sustainability for residents and businesses alike.”
To that end, county leaders will host several community input sessions over the next two months.
“Residents’ input will be vital to the comprehensive success of developing the strategic plan,” Carpenter said.
