Bishopville Downtown Master Plan

Bishopville is a beautiful historic city, home to legends such as Pearl Fryar, Drink Small and the Lizard Man. A gateway to the Pee Dee and a fertile agricultural area, Bishopville has struggled to maintain its once prosperous downtown and thriving population. With its historic and cultural assets, how can the elected leaders, residents and business owners reestablish downtown as the vibrant heart of Bishopville? You plan for it. City Council is committed to and invested in the successful implementation of the plan’s recommendations.
