Manager's Message: Full steam ahead
Manager's Message: John M. Barrett
As we move full steam ahead into 2025, I am filled with pride and optimism for South Fayette.
The past year was marked by many achievements, including growth in our business community, the splash pad opening at Fairview Park, continued investment in our roads and the first year operating from our new municipal center.
These successes are a testament to the hard work, collaboration and shared vision of everyone who calls South Fayette home.
This issue of South Fayette Connect draws attention to the significant number of building permits we issued last year, which will result in additional commercial development, new places to live and more value added to the township (p. 18).
We also highlight new places to eat and lounge (p. 12), recognize the contributions of our sponsor-advertisers (p. 14) and feature the chambers of commerce that support our businesses (p. 16).
The year ahead promises to be another exciting chapter for the township. We have ambitious plans in the works, including continued expansion of Fairview Park with new ball fields and trail connections (p. 11), plus a Public Works substation at the Mayview Road park entrance.
Our township continues to grow and evolve, and with that comes the chance to strengthen our connections, improve our services and build on the progress we’ve made together.
Thank you for staying engaged, sharing your ideas and taking part in all that South Fayette has to offer.
We wish you a happy, healthy and fulfilling year ahead.
