Oconee County Comprehensive Plan Committee Reviews Preliminary Documents Before Public Forum

Members of the Stakeholders Committee updating the Oconee County Comprehensive Plan spent two hours last week reacting to a series of recommendations on four topics that will be covered by the Plan.

The recommendations were spelled out in sheets prepared by the staff of the Northeast Georgia Regional Commission, which is directing work on the 2018 Comprehensive Plan, and were based on earlier meetings of the Stakeholders Committee and its three subcommittees.

Those subcommittees, dealing with land use, transportation and infrastructure, and parks, recreation and greenspace, are scheduled to meet again this week and next.

At 6 p.m. on July 27, the NEGRC staff, on behalf of the Stakeholders Committee, is to give a report to the public on work on the Comprehensive Plan at a public forum at the Community Center in Oconee Veterans Park.
