The plan will undergo a review from the Atlanta Regional Commission and the GA Department of Community Affairs. The purpose of this hearing is to notify the community that the plan is ready for regional and state review, and there is still an opportunity for final public input before we submit the plan. Kimley Horn is the consultant contracted to help develop the plan.
