Clay County unveils its 'roadmap toward a thriving, sustainable future'
Clay County government and partners on Wednesday unveiled their community plan, which they call 'a bold and collaborative roadmap to guide the county toward a thriving, sustainable future.' The plan was developed through extensive community engagement and input from regional stakeholders. It was made possible through a planning grant from the Wabash Valley Community Foundation and created with input from people across the region. RJL Solutions assisted with the grant application and helped foster regional collaboration. The Clay County Community Plan centers on four pillars: infrastructure, economic development, health and wellness, and community identity, according to a news release. It lays out actionable strategies to address challenges such as aging infrastructure, limited healthcare access, and workforce shortages, while capitalizing on regional growth, tourism potential, and community pride. Said Clay County Commissioner Paul Sinders, 'This plan reflects the voices of our community and lays out a clear path to improve the quality of life for everyone who calls Clay County home. By addressing infrastructure, housing, and broadband access, we're not just planning for tomorrow—we're preparing for decades of growth.' Other speakers at the rollout event included Beth Tevlin of the Wabash Valley Community Foundation and Nick McCollum of the Clay County Chamber of Commerce. The plan is the result of months of research, dialogue, and strategic planning. For more information or to view the Clay County Community Plan, visit
