Clinton, Mississippi
CL INTON, MI SS I SS I PP I development. We want this to be the place where you can grow your family, but not only that, you can also work here. You can do everything that you need within the area and you can shop or go to restaurants. And I think that working with the Alliance and some of their other partners has been crucial in that fight.” Being a place with a high quality of life, where people can grow is of utmost importance to Fisher. “You can be born here, you can be educated up to a PhD in Clinton, and find a job,” he says. “A young person can graduate with a PhD and go to work in town and be transferred all over the world and come back and live here. Or you can move here and raise a family.” To make the city even more enticing for families, Clinton has embarked on a program to upgrade its infrastructure, including an expansion to one of its water sewer facilities, as well as spending a significant amount of money on parks and walking trails. “We are going to spend over a million dollars this year building walking trails,” Fisher says. “And that’s just the start of a four- year program that will finally end up with 15 miles of walking trails in our city. This is what people are demanding when they come to town. They have young families and they want their kids to be able to get out there on their bikes and ride on the trails, or be able to run on the trails and not have to deal with traffic or things of that nature. So that’s the direction we are going in.” MEMBERFDIC >L»SS OLSW OHUKSL [OL ÄUHUJLZ ZV `V\ JHU MVJ\Z VU ^OH[ TH[[LYZ As a leader, your time is best invested in big picture thinking.
