ISSUE AND BACKGROUND:
The purpose of this hearing is to brief the community on the contents of the draft plan; provide an opportunity for residents to make final suggestions, additions, or revisions; and notify the community of when the plan will be submitted to the Atlanta Regional Commission (ARC) and Georgia Department of Community Affairs (DCA) for review. This plan serves as a relatively modest update to the major Comprehensive Plan prepared in 2017 by the firms Jacobs and Market Street Services. Feeding into this plan update was a public outreach effort that included an informational project website featuring a robust online survey, a public open house, and Steering Committee meetings and engagement.
RECOMMENDATION / REQUESTED ACTION: Authorization to submit the Comprehensive Plan Update to Department of Community Affairs for review and authorize the Mayor to sign and execute all related documents.
