Quality of Life Task Force Report
The Quality of Life Task Force was charged by Governor Sanford with developing recommendations concerning Quality of Life issues in South Carolina. The recommendations that were made cover a variety of topics including community growth,land conservation,regulatory reform, resource inventory and water resources.
The task force mission statement was “to protect the
land and water resources of South Carolina in balance with economic growth by emphasizing:
· education,
· incentives over regulation,
· market principles, and
· respect for private property rights.”
The task force was unanimous in its conviction that the status quo in government can no longer serve the long-term
needs of the state. The task force submitted 26 recommendations that it concluded would change the direction of South Carolina by enabling the State to more fully develop and sustain the strengths of its diverse
citizenry, its private sector institutions, its natural landscapes and its traditional communities. It was their vision that government institutions work in collaboration with private sector interests, enabling and complimenting
exemplary efforts to improve South Carolina's future.
