The Borough of State College is actively engaged in a strategic planning process to capture the long-term vision for the community and provide direction for the organization. This process will include many opportunities to gather input from community members and we invite your ongoing engagement with the process on this platform.
In December, the Mayor and Borough Council have developed a DRAFT Vision Statement for the Borough and identified six Critical Success Factors (those things that must go well in order for the vision to be realized). Now, it is time for the community to weigh in! Visit the Forum tab to provide your input for their consideration!
