local! Visit www.mauldinculturalcenter.org for more details on upcoming events.
IN THE MEDIA
City and county officials
welcomed the development
of a new, affordable housing
project. The more than 2
acre-lot will be home to
nine buildings, including 18
townhomes. The project,
planned in conjunction
with the Greenville County
Redevelopment Authority
serves as a way to bring a
mixed-income, workingclass
to Mauldin.

Appearing in a musical, a
public speaking engagement
and achieving As and Bs at
school are just some of the
highlights of the past year
for Isaiah Custodio, the
Mauldin teen who suffered
a rare brain hemorrhage in
September 2015. “Things
are not easy, but they’re still
good,” Isaiah’s mom said.
“We’re thankful he is where
he is.”

Wondering what to do with
your Christmas tree now
that the holidays are over?
The City of Mauldin is
hosting a tree recycle
program. Simply remove all
decorations, lights, garland
and tinsel and drop your
tree off at Springfield Park.
The City will handle it from
there!

DEPARTMENT REPORT | COMMUNITY DEV
Cultural Center Updates
“Palmetto with Flowers” by Jamie von Herndon, the latest
installation on the Public Art Trail, was unveiled last month.
The piece honors the nine souls that passed during the
shooting at Emanual AME Church in Charleston and the
victims of the latest South Carolina flood. A RFQ for the
2017 installation will be released next month.
Cultural Attendance
The Cultural Center has partnered with Carolina Bride &
Groom to host a fashion show. Due to snow, the fashion
show has been moved from it’s original date to Jan. 29,
3 p.m. The event will showcase the art and culture of
today’s prom fashion and will benefit the Connie Maxwell
Children’s Home.
Development and Annexation
The Office of Adjudication and Disability Review
(ODAR) has closed on an 18K sq. ft., $3M building,
which will become a state-of-the-art social security
court system that reviews disability cases. The City
seeks landscape changes for North Main, and the new
development is a step in a positive direction.
GCRA broke ground for a very important workforce
development housing project at the corner of Old
Mill and Miller Road. This project will provide quality
affordable housing to those working in the safety
community, including teachers, policemen, and
firemen.
City Council motioned to close part of Millport, helping
Project Signal meet one of its goals. The project will see
major development plans in the near future.
Annexation opportunites west and north of Mauldin will
be submitted to Council for review soon.

Ray Hopkins Senior Center
To celebrate the holidays, seniors visited the TD Center and saw a play at Centre Stage
that made them appreciate the crazy people in each of their families and laugh all the
way home. Santa stopped by the center for a Christmas celebration, which included
a catered meal, a short skit from the Elderberries Drama Club, and a slide show from
the digital photography instructor.
In the spirit of giving, the seniors collected food and shoes for the children’s back pack
food ministry and blankets, food, and toys for the Mauldin dog shelter. The seniors
participated in their Angel Tree project again this year, delivering 12 gifts to National
Health Care and 25 to Diamond Health Care for residents who have no family and may
