Community Relations Council

One-third (10) of the thirty members are appointed by Richland County Council; one-third by the Columbia City Council; and, one-third by the Columbia Chamber of Commerce. The terms are three years. The Committee’s goal is to make the Midlands a better place to live and work for all residents. To achieve its objective, efforts are made to improve and promote communications among business, government, and citizens. The staff studies and evaluates information received concerning racial and social problems within the Columbia metropolitan area and takes proper action based on consultation with the Board of Directors. The staff also works to assist its clientele with employment housing, education, crime, delinquency awareness, and health care.
