PUBLIC HEARING NOTICE
CATOOSA COUNTY, FORT OLGETHORPE, AND RINGGOLD
UPDATE OF JOINT COMPREHENSIVE PLAN

The above governments share a Joint Comprehensive Plan. Under planning rules promulgated by the Georgia Department of Community Affairs effective on March 1, 2014, it is time for a full ten-year update of the Plan document. This first public hearing is intended to explain the process for the plan preparation and the opportunities for public participation in the development of the updated plan. These affected governments intend to appoint citizens to participate as part of a Coordinating/Stakeholder Committee to work with planners for the plan preparation. In addition, broad citizen participation at every meeting related to the plan preparation is desirable and recommended.

The plan document, estimated for completion in draft form by November 1, 2025 will ultimately be submitted for review to the Northwest Georgia Regional Commission and the Georgia Department of Community Affairs. Plan approval by February 28, 2026 will allow the affected governments to extend their Qualified Local Government status, and each will therefore be eligible for State loans, grants, or permits for another five years.

This public hearing will be held in the Public Meeting Room, Catoosa County Administration Building, 800 LaFayette Street, Ringgold, GA 30736 at 6 pm. on Tuesday, February 4, 2025.
