Public Forum Thursday Night To Review Work Of Stakeholders Committee Updating Oconee County Comprehensive Plan

Planners from the Northeast Georgia Regional Commission Thursday night will showcase the work to date of the Oconee County Stakeholders Committee updating the county’s Comprehensive Plan.

The meeting is scheduled to begin at 6 p.m. at the Community Center in Oconee Veterans Park, 3500 Hog Mountain Road, west of Butler’s Crossing.

The meeting will have a drop-in format, meaning that there will be no formal presentation but that interested citizens will have a chance to see what the Stakeholders Committee and its subcommittees have agreed upon so far.

A central part of the Comprehensive Plan is a Future Development Map that is designed to be used by the Board of Commissioners to guide decisions about the location of future development in the county.

For more on the story as well as a video of the July 12 meeting of the Land Use Subcommittee of the Stakeholders Committee, go to Oconee County Observations.
