The services provided by
WSFC Utilites are central
to assuring the sustained
vitality of the region. To
achieve continued success,
we must address several

wide trends as we work to
implement this strategic plan.
These include meeting future
regulatory requirements,
changes in usage patterns,
and growing concerns about

must be understood within
the context of the City of
Winston-Salem and Forsyth

for the future.

Key trends, expectations
for the future, and potential
responses, many of which are
embodied in this strategic
plan, are presented on the
