It's been nearly a year since Clinton's strategic has been in place, but very little of it has been acted on. 

Mayor Helen Michelassi hopes to change that and begins this month. The Mayor is going to begin meeting with the stakeholders of the plan to make sure what is in it still makes sense for the City.

As the process plays out, the Mayor says it is important to communicate with the City Council and the community about where they are and how it is going.

Marketing Clinton to the area and beyond is of particular interest to Mayor Michelassi. She believes there are some great attractions to bring people to Clinton and DeWitt County and wants to showcase those.

According to Mayor Michelassi, to keep the process from getting bogged down, accountability is going to be the key.
