progress with preservation. “We’re cautious about how we grow,” Blain explains.“We don’t want to lose what makes Conway special.” This philosophy extends to the city’s approach to residential and commercial development. Conway has several large-scale housing developments in the works, but each one is carefully planned to ensure that it aligns with the city’s long-term vision. “We require these planned developments to include commercial space,” Hyman says. “That way, people don’t have to drive out onto the highways just to get basic services.” With a strong sense of purpose and a dedication to collaboration, Conway is well on its way to becoming one of South Carolina’s most desirable places to live, work, and visit.“We’re just getting started,” Blain says, her voice filled with optimism.“The best is yet to come.” 17 CIVIL AND MUNICIPAL VOLUME 05, ISSUE 10 CONWAY, SC
