The City of Clinton will soon have a new vision statement and a new mission statement.

Tuesday night at the Clinton City Council meeting, the Council put those on file to be approved next month. Wednesday on the WHOW Morning Show, City Administrator Taylor Baxter laid those out for the community.

The plan has goals that were ranked by importance and according to Baxter, a lot of what those goals include are already underway and gives priority and a path forward for them.

The strategic plan includes several long-term goals. Baxter explains one of those is what happens if a new City Hall cannot be built and also exploring a park district. The idea of a park district has been bandied about in the community for several years.

According to Baxter, the strategic plan has a large focus on economic development in addition to the City Hall building.
