In February 2025, Town of Fort Mill staff engaged planning and engineering firm Bolton & Menk to begin the Fort Mill: Our Path Forward project. This project will establish an updated vision for the Town of Fort Mill for the next twenty years, looking not only at the Town as a whole, but also including a Downtown Master Plan and Parks and Recreation Master Plan. We are excited to be working on these fundamental projects which will provide us a path forward to help guide our town for the future.
Updates to the project and upcoming engagement opportunities will be posted at: www.fortmillsc.gov/ourpathforward as well as to the Town’s social media platforms (Facebook, X, Instagram, Nextdoor). For any questions about the project, please contact Town staff by email at ourpathforward@fortmillsc.gov.
Comprehensive Plan
As part of this project, the Town is embarking on the development of a 2045 Comprehensive Plan to create a long-term vision for the future. This initiative aims to encourage the community to think holistically about our future. We will engage in a community-wide conversation about the future of Fort Mill— where we are now and where we envision ourselves in the next twenty years and beyond.
Our first open house to gather public input for this initiative was held April 9, 2025 at Unity Presbyterian Church Fellowship Hall and was attended by 65 community members. Residents were able to view the plan and offer suggestions. If you missed the opportunity to attend the open house, you can click on this link to see everything that was presented.
Residents will also be able to share their thoughts via an online survey through June 13, 2025 which can be found by clicking here. Save the date as the next drop-in open house meeting for the Comprehensive Plan rewrite will be held on from 4:30-7 p.m. on Wednesday, June 11, 2025 at Fort Mill Elementary School.
