Local governments don’t have absolute control over all developers and private property, as people assume. Again, public input was a priority we received more than 2,000 survey responses and hosted multiple community meetings. And while we make every effort to focus on sustainable growth, we also understand that government isn’t in control of all things. In 2019, we created a Downtown Master Plan. 1 core value, followed by Connectivity, Arts and Culture, and Small Town Character. The city completed a comprehensive Master Plan in 2018 that outlines our challenges as a small community and our values.


More than three years ago, we invested in a planning director. Most municipalities our size, population less than 6,000, don’t have a full-time planning member on staff. It’s the filter through which we make decisions. It’s why we’ve put so much emphasis on sustainable growth. And our local government feels the same way. Whether they’ve lived in TR for a lifetime or moved here two years ago, residents feel strongly invested in developments and preservation of our community. In the past 10 years, TR residents have felt and seen the pressures of growth and change on a regular basis, from the development of the Prisma Health Swamp Rabbit Trail and the revitalization of our Main Street. But what’s usually left out of that transformation story is the preparation for and intentional development of our city by local government and elected officials. Travelers Rest’s transformation from a drover rest stop more than 200 years ago, to a highway bypass in the ’80s, to a small town ripe with development and visitors in the ’00’s is a story all on its own. While it may seem as though Upstate growth has been a big topic of discussion only recently, those of us in local governments have been planning and preparing for years. Greenville County has seen 33.56% population growth from 2000 to 2019 we have seen 25.69% growth of residents in TR. Since I first became a City Council member in Travelers Rest more than 10 years ago, “sustainable growth” has been one of our top priorities.
