Economic Development

The City of Fort Oglethorpe Economic Development Department promotes, encourages, recruits, and elevates the community’s strategic development and retention of responsible business growth. The department focuses on building tourism, strengthening community engagement and activity, enhancing the lives of citizens and businesses, managing Stormwater, and overseeing Planning and Zoning.

VISION FOR THE FUTURE

In 2021, the City of Fort Oglethorpe, in partnership with the Carl Vinson Institute of Government and the Lyndhurst Foundation, created the Renaissance Strategic Vision and Plan (RSVP). While addressing the top issues raised by community members in step one of the RSVP, the downtown master plan was produced to help guide local leaders and inform future design concepts prepared for the community.
