Help shape Sanford's future!
The City of Sanford has been guided by visionary leadership over the past 150 years. However, the decisions made by Sanford's leaders were guided by the feedback and input of committed, thoughtful residents who care deeply about their community.
Every year, but especially during this sesquicentennial year, residents are encouraged to explore and engage in the many plans, studies, and projects in the works to improve the quality of life for everyone. These are just a sample:
